Is that why they call it "tuning the rigging"?

Subject: Re: Stus-List Singing Rigging
I think what is happening is that either a shroud or a stay has hit resonant
frequency. I think that either tightening or loosing it will eliminate the
noise. Resonant frequency is the natural frequency of an object. This happens
to my wife when she gets mad at me and is wound up tight.

Hello fellow seers,
I'm getting this humming in the mast as soon as I have a little breeze while on
the mooring ball and it's really annoying. At first I thought it was a
generator or an engine sound propagated by water but I realized it's the
strings of this big violin that are singing. Any idea how you get rid of that
without messing up the rig balance? Is it the baby stay? I have a lower that is
a little loose and when I tension it the sound pitch changes but does not go
away.
Cheers,
