Yes please! More DIY reverb videos! Thanks so much. -chaz
Can't believe I didn't get irritated by the comedic element. Good job! 👍
Plate reverb would be a great DIY project! I could put one in the loft
Love the sound of it especially on the guitar and his vocals ..I even liked the lazer sounds too
I loved the video already. When you called him a twat, I laughed out loud, paused the video, and subscribed. 🤣
I had this rackMount spring reverb with tubes in it in 1985 I got it out of a dumpster behind a church, used it for years since I was a young musician/engineer with even less money than I have now as old musician/engineer…... That damn thing is probably worth more than me now.
British humor - the best!!
I'm just here for the cat.
Me too
This reminded me of messing around making a hose pipe delay.
Think I need some big springs now.
And yes to wanting to see the DIY plate reverb!!!
Seeing as I have a couple of mixcubes collecting dust.. I might actually have to do this
Sounds so good!
When I was 14 I made a spring reverb out of a tin cigar box, a transistor radio speaker and a section of electric heator coil from an oldradiant heater. The whole thing was 10 inches long. It wounded remarkably good and I may make another one for use in my home studio.
When I was going to school, my instructor was an engineer from the 60's, and he said they would mic up stairwells and hallways to get different kinds of reverb. You would obviously have to manage the traffic in the building you did it in, but it's a cool idea. I bet a tractor trailer, conex container, or even a good sized shed made of metal would make some interesting reverb. It probably wouldn't be ideal to do regularly, but you could use it to sample a bunch of stuff.
The prof is funny. Don’t listen to the haters.
Love this, wow!
I love this channel!
Lasers... yes please!
Reverb, sweet!
Great channel.Thank you.
Uff, i wish you would have spend more time fine tuning this idear. I mena its sound phenomenal, even like this!
Yes! Let’s see a dit plate!!
The lasers were great!
The Professor is... interesting. He's like Britain's answer to Humpty Hump.
Springs are "No good on the snare" every dub producer in the world would disagree. Still a great video tho...definitely gonna make a slinky reverb!
Springs are AWESOME on snare! Just not this one… 🤣
The new pens and stuff make The Professor more authoritative!
Swweeeeeeetah :> I actually enjoy the sound of it
LOVE THE PROFESSOR AS AN ALTERNATIVE CHARECTER! Gets me everytime. 😂😂💯
PS. I hope that the fake beard isn't hurting mark's lungs in anyway and that the blowing out it just apart of the skit!
The professor is very rude and I truly doubt that he has any kind of academic tenure.
Great series! DYI Plate Reverb next please!
Need to have a diy plate reverb in your life guys thanks x
YES!! I want a real analog plate reverb soooooo bad
@@orryfishburne5326 cheap enough to make one
i would love to see an active reverb made of a slinky with active feedback through op amps and filtering. you could try filtering it using active eq to make diffrent reverb sounds and feedback would allow for sustained oscillation or longer reverb tails
"oh god i'm allergic to FlOP" lmaooo
Here we all are again
Anyone who isn't as daft as you two (which is probably most of us) would start off by examining an off-the-shelf springline to get some idea how it works, and they would see the similarity to a moving coil loudspeaker.
Remove the cone from a cheap speaker drive unit (actually, you wouldn't really need to go that far) and connect the spring to the voice coil.
Totally making a stereo version of one of these. Thank you! Is this basically how the Great British Spring Reverb is constructed?
See? told you...floppy knows how! :)
Please make a plate reverb!!
Slinky slinky, everyone loves a slinky.
this is the content that you can give a sub too
what can i say the best audio channel funny and informative thank you for your time , could you review
(Kii Audio Three)
Streaky said that their mid range is as good as atc .
How about a sound transducer unit. They are made to be mate with a surface to make sound . 4-8 Ohm can take about 15-25w already have a mounting hole. Should be easy to make a spring or plate reverb.
Second idea is spring and plate could already be steel right? Why not just put guitar or bass pickup on it?
Thank you . i will follow with excitement
Explore stairwell reverb please
Ok, but I can play Mozart's horn concerto on a length of garden hose.
2:33 chilled Tie fighter pilot during the Battle of Endor.
I have said it before and I'll say it again... Absolute Nutters! Good idea with the CD though👍 What about rubber grommets at different distances along the Slinky? that might dampen the "Laser" sound? I may have to try this in the morning.
Cheers
Oh and yes, we would like to see the DIY Plate reverb, thank you very much ;-)
Heath Robinson would be so proud of you! 😅
Why not go and buy a cheap transistor radio style speaker and then hot glue the bottom of the spring to the speaker cone?
I always thought the sound of the spring reverb was determined by the case it was held within.
That lovely metalic sound of a guitar amp spring reverb is also the metal box the spring is in.....and the board it is screwed to...
3:05 well obviously, you need a blank disk or you’ll color your audio with the recorded audio. Everybody knows this. Barely even worth mentioning. (Cool project!)
When's the VST version coming out? :D
Perfect for Sound design LOL
😂more Nutty Professor please!😂
Mount one side of the spring on a wall and the other on a big plate and drive the plate with a plate transducer. Spring needs to be under tension that you can vary to change the time and colour of the sound. You can pick up the sound of the spring with a piezo or with an electromagnet like a guitar coil
Question : what microphone lavalier are you using? Thanks
The microphone is a Clippy EM272 XLR, from micbooster.com :)
micbooster.com/clippy-and-pluggy-microphones/98-clippy-stereo-em272-microphone.html
Why not use an exciter to drive the spring?
I would actually like to hear this contraption inside a chamber with the typical mic and baffle setup to blend. Potentially (1) aux send to drive (2) different time-based returns.
This has surely been answered somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. What is this song? I don't wanna use it in any video, I just want to listen to it. It can't be this only exists on epidemicsounds? Awesome vocals.
The song was recorded for our channel, with Andy Platts on vocals, James Maltby on guitar, Michael Horner on Rhodes, Andrew Blowers on bass and Chris Boot on drums. It’s not available elsewhere online for copyright reasons as we use it for demo’s! :)
I want to see a DIY plate reverb
Here's a sentence I never thought I'd say and only a few will understand. The professor is top draw Michael Bentine's Potty Time cosplay. Well done.
Digging this topic, how about recreating some of the stuff from the remarkable BBC Radiophonic Workshop, this was a powerhouse of innovation from Dr Who to Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy original radio series.
So… Where do we get the IRs? 😉 Great job guys!!!
Soon!
@@PresentDayProduction see? That’s the sort of thing that makes us love you!
If you move forward with a Plate Reverb DIY video, please compare it to some plugins to see if it would even be worth the effort.
Those vocals sound familiar? Who is the vocalist on the music track?
The song was recorded for our channel, with Andy Platts (Mama’s Gun, Young Gun Silver Fox, + more) on vocals, James Maltby on guitar, Michael Horner on Rhodes, Andrew Blowers on bass and Chris Boot on drums. It’s not available elsewhere online for copyright reasons as we use it for demo’s! :)
i mean isnt your building a giant plate of corrugated metal on the outside anyways?
I was hoping that the Bodgeverb Mk2 would be able to sashay effortlessly down a flight of stairs while delivering a million dollar twangle to the applied signal. It's the hope that kills ya.
DIY compressor.. ??
Did you make one?
Boing-boing!
Professor Rosseforp
bring on the twatology! :D
Pffffffpf... hahahaha 🤣
Yes, I wanna see that.
Looking at furry Mark makes me tingly and not in a good way, more like having a rash of some sort.
I think, I'll stikk to the smaller version, unless George Lucas calls and asks for space battle sound fx. I'm awaiting that call any minute.
This is a video about a cat.
(Second attempt, as the first one went RUclips AWOL).
wan-k-wan-k-wan-k-wan-k-wan-k-wan-k-- sorry, I must have tank turrets syndrome.
To make a plate reverb, you could use the part of the building which contains your digital reverb unit... and just select an appropriate preset.
click-bait image
Is there or is there not a spring reverb in the video?😂
Also, no photoshop there, we photographed it as it is…
Great video, but lose the prof persona. Your making RUclips Videos not creepy 1970s/80s childrens TV programs!
There are too many boring videos out there!
Liked the idea and experiment and keep those coming!
Did not find the bearded guy funny nor is easy to listen to
Please stop this painful reverb project and accept the fact that some new technology’s are greater and more efficient than the old technologies because technologies such as spring reverb sound awful. Yes there were great recordings made with spring reverb, but later there were great and better technical recordings made with plate reverb and dedicated echo chambers. I was fortunate enough to actually work as a client in some of these rooms like Universal Recorders, Streeterville, Jeram (formerly chess studios), And River North Recorders all in Chicago. These studios all had two things in common. Great reverb- echo chambers and they’re all out of business 😂. What this last statement has to do with spring reverb. I do not know, but now that you’ve got me name dropping and aging my self like a proper self-righteous wanker. Anyway, The natural reverb of a room for recording classical instruments, drum sets and vocals etc. has not been made obsolete by technology. It’s called having a really good live room in your studio, But even most budget digital reverb unit sounds more pleasant and natural to the ears than the dreaded spring reverb. Kill it kill it! mommy please make it stop, Burn any books that refer to its construction or design and erase any evidence aside from historical recordings that it ever cursed this planet with its existence. By the way: I hope everyone’s doing well. Thank you for the videos and give flop cat a pet for me please.😀
Please show the court on the Slinky where the snare drum hurt you...
@@frankwales Your Honor and ladies and gentlemen of the jury. It was 1988 and I was mixing on a Peavey MD 16 from a Tascam 88 without DBX noise reduction. When Aall of a sudden out of nowhere a loud guitar solo with accompanying background vocals on another track loudly assaulted my ears with out any warning or provocation. Both audio tracks contained unconscionable amounts spring reverb which the tracking engineer thought would be a great idea. I stood up from my chair, gathered my thoughts in an attempt to recover from this unprovoked assault upon my senses and In fear of my sanity. I stood my ground and demanded that both the guitar and the backing vocal track be erased immediately and re-recorded without such slinky sounding and inhumane so-called spring reverb. To this very day I am haunted after witnessing such a hateful act of audio terrorism.
@@reread2549 but funny spring go boing boing pew pew
@@tob2089 I have nothing against slinky toys 😂
