If you slowly dip your finger in water there'll be no wave formation, if you
slowly depress the drum skin and then release, there'll be no sound too ...
I thought we are discussing different ways of sound production by actually
plucking the string either more parallel to the soundboard or towards it and
the
resulting effect on the sound spectrum ... not ticks of trying to pluck with
no sound ):{
