this is a hand operated tape machine. A very simple idea. It is glitchy but promising. do you want to print the wall support for your tapes? go here and download www.thingivers...
Fantastic! I’m obsessed with tape as well. You’ve created a new tool for sound artists. I would love to buy one or support a crowd funding. And I love your project to leave tapes around your city! Well done!!
I wish you lived where I live, so I could find tapes. That would make my day. I always hope to find something cool, sitting out on trash day, or by a dumpster. I'm always hoping that someone cleans out their garage or attic, and leaves an old reel to reel, cassette recorder, synth, etc.. sitting on the curb. I've gotten rid of things in the past, that I still regret years later. I used to only use software, so I've gotten rid of tape recorders, mixers, keyboards, camcorders, and an old Commodore 64... Due to moving, and being tired of carrying these things from place to place. After I started getting into hardware, and tapes again, it makes my stomach hurt to think about.
@@sonicmistress its not the device. Its the whole thing. The process, the work and the videos, the tapes on the tree, and what it could turn out to be.
I love it. I use hacked Walkmans and open reel amongst other DIY tape machines. Yhis would be great for the off grid jams I organise. It would fit well with the hand manipulated turntable stuff I do. Again no power needed. Please make these available or maybe share the plans. Are they 3d printed.
@@Lonershy I think there's a few of us who love the instability. Or is it just a bit too unstable at present to work consistently. I'm sure you'll nail it. You've brought it this far.
How is the eletronics part of it assembled? Just some old tape head connected to output wires? Also I think that with some serious clockwork this can be made much more precise, but it will be more steampunk device (and it's out of my manufacturing ability). Great idea as always.
Hey, love the idea ! I can understand how you generate the sound but i wanted to know if you also take advantage of the force generated by the hand as would do a dynamo to amplify it through the jack ? Also, i don't understand how i can work as a standalone recorder ? On which medium by the way, the band tape itself ? Thanks !
This is incredible and needs a LOT more attention!
I love that you're making new content dude. Welcome back ...we missed you.
haha thanks you!!! im back with lots of projects
Me too 🎓 maestro !
If you start selling these, I will buy one in a heartbeat.
id needs to be more "stable" to be commercial, the idea is more to share the 3d files and process on how to
Build it and they will buy.
yeah looks like haha
GREAT, INCREDIBLY GREAT

Awesome! Thank you!
Yes! I want one too!!
I would definitely buy!

i know the feeling, i got rid of so many things i regret... but we need to focus on the present and what we have :)
I like it. Would be cool if you could add a clockwork to it so you could wind it up too :D
haha yeah
This is a genius idea. You could sell these and make some money with it. I'd want one for sure
it needs to be more "perfect" in order to sell, maybe in the future who knows!
Now this was really something, thought provoking and creative, subbed!
Super cool.
yooooo hahaha thanks!
Merry Xmas mate, I hope you have a happier 2023 👍
Thank you so much for your wonderful inventions and music, it's such an inspiration to me 😆
oh thank you so much!!!!
Hook it up to a bike with a little amplifier powered by a dynamo, the beat will follow your speed.
i already did something similar, check my videos hehe
This video is a belated Christmas gift!! Thank you 🙏🙏
oh wow thank you so much
Great idea! I could use that for sound design. In the future I will mod it for a bike with speakers to play my 90's tapes... LOUD!
that sounds great!
I love this… just an idea… find a way to control both spools with one lever so you can manipulate the tape back n forth over the playback head…
yeah thats a pretty nice idea, new version is coming soon
Very nice , I love tape machine !
Thank you! 😊
Love this!
thanks!
This is so brilliant!❤
Amazing!
I need one!
haha thanks!
Love it and I would be super duper interested in buying one! Are you planning on producing some? What a great idea
im more thinking in sharing the plans!
@@Lonershy u are completely right. capitalism is game over.
Need one!!!❤
Love it
thanks!
great great
i need one of those
maybe one day
you’re a genius.
It’s perfect and amazing and so great.
I’m gonna dig how to make one.
Lol wind your neck in, it's only a handle to turn the tape with a playback head in the box....
@@sonicmistress its not the device. Its the whole thing. The process, the work and the videos, the tapes on the tree, and what it could turn out to be.
nothing more than that! build one! is really fun
thank you! @JohnTax

yes they are 3d printed, i need to make it more "stable" and will share the plans

This is so cool! I love tapes! 👍
I'd buy that. Patent it ASAP.
im more thinking on showing how to build one and leaving the 3d files up to download
Whoa, amazing stuff!
thank you!
This is awesome!
thank you!
Would I have to connect the tape head to an amp before the 3.5mm out? Absolutely incredible idea
Very inspiring! Nice job
Thanks so much!
Keep coming back to watch this. So cool! Any chance you'd share the 3D print files?

Great idea as always.
exactly! its super simple.
yes!!!! thank you±±
Are these going to be available? And, out of curiosity, where are you from?
hello! im thinking about it, needs to be more "usable" so lets see, oh and im spanish living in Berlin!
@@Lonershy ok, please let me know once you know. I'm interested even in trying a demo.
🎅
i see u santa i see u
Hey, love the idea !
I can understand how you generate the sound but i wanted to know if you also take advantage of the force generated by the hand as would do a dynamo to amplify it through the jack ? Also, i don't understand how i can work as a standalone recorder ? On which medium by the way, the band tape itself ? Thanks !
yes, it depends on the force and velocity also
¿He oido Berlin? 👀
efectivamente
and how did you connect the head to skirt p2?
ok so the head is attached to a spring that makes pressure to the tape, the level can be adjusted, its super wobly at the moment and very unstable...
@@Lonershy thanks but i would like to know which wire goes where?
ma é bellissimo :O
grazie milleeeeeee
@@Lonershy hey love to hear soneone answers in italian :)) compliments again, that is a genius idea. same goes for your music!
do you sold that machine ?
not yet
good to see that youre back!
yeey haha thanks
can I buy one daddy?
not yet!
Love this!
