No A physically modelled piano synthesizer in C++17 requires deep digital signal processing (DSP) expertise and complex acoustic physics algorithms (waveguide or finite difference time domain).
What it would actually take: Implementation requires C++17 with real-time audio threads, integrating CoreAudio/CoreMIDI on macOS, and solving numerical differential equations (FDTD) or 2D digital waveguide meshes to model hammer-string collision, string stiffness, bridge coupling, and soundboard resonance. It demands specialized knowledge in acoustic physics, advanced DSP, and low-latency lock-free C++ architecture.
