DIY Spring Box / Noise Box: My first creation for sound design in horror movies 👻
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- In this video I test the first noise box I've ever built.
For the construction I've used springs, screws, rods and one guitar string. In the end, I've put two piezo mics inside the box.
The final sound is manipulated by my Eurorack modules (uClouds and SMR).

This is so good! You've inspired me to make one.
Hello, this sound so much better than all the commercial spring reverbs actually.❤
As I listen to this (twice) this is what I wrote in my journal.
You have me thinking about building a nice box with a wooden lid, as a base. Build a second box with a steel sheet as it’s top and open on bottom.
Spend the open box over the wooden bow with a stout neck.
Run 10 bass guitar strings from the steel plate to tuners on the wooden box. Tune then from low A to High A like you would a bass guitar. Repeat this with Weed eater string. And add springs of different sizes and weights.
You could play it with rubber mallets, finger pick it or use a bow on it.
Thank you for setting my mind free.
Thank you so much!
It almost seems like you want to create a new chordophone!
Your idea intrigued me, hope you will share on YB the final results :)
@@marcoadobaticomposer Thank you
A chordophone.... I have so much to learn but thank you for some direction.
All I have to make videos ,but I will.
Thank you for sharing! This is beautiful and brilliantly executed!
I need to make something like this. Sadly, I found your inspiration at 4AM! 😮
Thank you so much! :)
I definitely need to learn to create one myself… This is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice, thanks for the inspiration!
Bello una ottima idea x deep ambient
Bravo....
Grazie mille! :)
This looks and sounds so cool.
Thank you so much! :)
very cool functionality- brilliant design .hats off pal
Thank you so much! :)
VERY COOL BOX. THANKS FOR THE INSPIRATION.
Thank you! :)
Sounds great but looks like you also need an expensive reverb/delay unit to actually get anything decent from it.
awesomeness!
Thank you! :)
nice ! does the lengh of the bolts influence the sound?
Wow Marco veramente stupendo!
Sto cercando di costruire qualcosa di simile e questo video è di grande ispirazione!
Grazie 👍👍
nice!
Thanks! :)
that music is perfect for those fingernails
awesome - what mixing equipment do you need?
That is amazing! How muck does it cost to build one? Thanks and happy new year!
Happy new year!
Thank you so much :)
More or less it's cost me about 20€. The most expensive parts probably are the contact microphones inside the box, the rest are woods, rods, screws and springs, so very cheap :)
@@marcoadobaticomposer Thanks! That's amazing!
Very well executed Marco. Love the modular touch. Can I ask what string you're using with the plastic "bridge" you're sliding back and forth? And regarding the bridge, can you tell me what key word I might use for a Google search to locate one? Thanks
Thank you so much Erik.
It's a regular guitar string (a few days before I broke it haha). As for the bridge, it is made by me with wood :) Simply it is a plywood (5mm) cut like a violin bridge, lightened by some holes :)
Finally i also waxed the wooden surface of the spring box, so "sliding the bridge" it's easier :)
@@marcoadobaticomposer Great stuff, Marco. Thanks for the detailed response. Much appreciated
Sounds, and looks amazing. Do you use a preamp for the piezo, or do pedals/ effects units do the same thing? I bought a 3 spring piezo instrument on etsy, and now I'm curious about how to make similar instruments myself.
Yes, i use the K&K Pure Preamp :)
Don't forget your rubber band for your next gig.
Very Cool! Did you use this in any projects we could see/listen?
Thanks! :) Not yet, but I'll probably release it soon ;)
Hi, amazing video, fantastic sounds you've tweaked and engineered here. Tis a thing of wondrous beauty. Any chance of a sample pack from this? But of a long shot I guess...
If not, could I get your permission to sample it for an ambient dub project? I'd like to work on this and make it available online completely free. Thank you 🙏
Hi Jimmy! Wonderful idea! You have my permission to sample it ;)
Let me know! :)
Well done! Did you fabricate them wood box or was it purchased and then modified ?
Thank you man! The wooden box is hand made by me :)
@@marcoadobaticomposer amazing sound and beautiful craftsmanship.
important question: is building something like this hard? i would like to make one for my atmo metal project.
Don't worry man, it's very easy! You need only a box (better if in wood), some screws and springs, and obviously piezoelectric microphones to put inside :)
molto interessante!!come amplifichi la scatola?
Grazie mille! Si utilizzo il K&K Pure Preamp
veramente bel lavoro! mi è piaciuta molto l'idea della corda di violino che pizzichi e cambi intonazione. posso chiedere che microfono hai usato?
Grazie mille! :)
Ho utilizzato degli economici microfoni a contatto, che stanno proprio sotto il legno :)
@@marcoadobaticomposer grazie! Per caso sono dei Piezo 50mm??
Esattamente :)
just take an electric guitar connected to overloaded amp and sctratch its strings, it's gonna be not worse than that
Stupendo. Quanti pienzo sono stati utilizzati e di che tipo? 🙂 Bellissimi anche gli eurorack
Grazie mille! Ho usato due semplicissimi piezo comprati su ali express :)
@@marcoadobaticomposer grazie! Che eurorack utilizzi? Anch'io sperimento un po'. Ho una piccola noise box, un pienzo (acquistati) che collego a vari effetti a pedale +Kp3 e altro ma vorrei espandere le possibilità di modulazione del suono perché certe cose non le ottengo neanche lontanamente coi synth. Immagino che anche tu sia iscritto alla pagina SynthCafé 🙂
Con qualche modulo eurorack come un granulare (tipo "Beads") e magari un risonatore (tipo "Rings"), assieme ai tuoi pedali ti darà già grandissime soddisfazioni a livello di sound design :)
Poi a seconda delle tue "mire espansionistiche" nel mondo modulare, la scelta del case varia molto invece. Spendendo poco, solo per questi pochi moduli di cui ti ho parlato (e magari qualcuno in più per modularli), potresti prendere in considerazione il case della moog da 60HP in accoppiata ad una buona PSU :)
Se sei interessato comunque, ti lascio il link dove spiego passo passo come ho costruito la Spring box:
