YES! In fact, I would say that my goal as a Xenharmonist is to get people

Besides hitting them with both hard and soft mallets (near the bridge for a
brite sound, in the center for a mellow sound) I also play it with a flat
pick, and occassionally with finger picks. Am planning to put some sounds on
the web-site pretty soon. Does anyone else want me to do that?

I'd like you to!
