[paid job] create node tree for vibrating string that shows harmonics

Hi!

I want to use Blender Geometry nodes to do this: I want to create a visualization of string vibrations (e.g. a guitar string). I want the string to be stationary at both ends. I want to have the string move up and down to show the fundamental vibration of the string. I also want to be able to then show half the string going up while the other half goes down to show the first harmonic. And so on.

It just so happens I have this sitting around.

The multiply by 6.283 is multiplying by tau, aka 2 times Pi. You can just type tau into the input field, it will insert the full-precision constant.

First of all, welcome to blenderartist!
Here is a setup that should allow you to do this:


and it gives the result:

If you press play you will then see the sine wave wiggle!

I know this is listed as a paid job, but this didnt take more than 5 minutes to set up. So if you were looking only for the method that allows you to do this, then here it is.

I hope this helps!
Cheers!
