[PD] how to create a sound like this?

There are neat tricks one can do with wavetables
to get dynamic spectra with a good compromise of
memory and CPU burden. 

In Boulanger's Csound book Andrew Horner and Lydia Ayers
have a chapter called "Contiguous group wavetable synthesis
of the French horn". Here, contiguous means that different
static Fourier constructed spectra, are mixed over
time and performance axes. 

With a few modifications this remains one of my
favourite expressive brass intruments, more so 
than physical models. Of course, you aren't limited to
blending wavetables. Modulation can be used to combine
them smoothly.
