wow .. i'm still trying to wrap my head around this thing , what an awesome sound .
Thank you! Happy to help if you have any questions.
I'm trying to wrap my head around the price. xD Probably have to wait for a .. decade..
But it really makes me want to build one for myself.
Ok Lets hear it
BLOWS EVERYONE AWAY.
If only it was made out of Norwegian Wood for the song
sounds amazing
Valter what a beautiful piece I can learn so much from your technique.
Hey Valter that beautiful tune you played, whats the title, is it an original?
I'm still searching but it sounds to me like a John Denver song. Pls post if you find it.
Ha! Ok i still think it sounds like John Denver but its really Norwegian Wood by the Beatles. Thanks to my brains trust Gary Wain for that.
Yes please!
Nice demo, gents!
Love it
Hyvää tone, style, sound!
Totally unlike other instruments, yet "reminiscent" of harp, guitar, harpsichord (maybe the closest?).
It seems, to me, FWIW, to add a kind of 3rd dimension to a harpsichord/piano, with the flexibility of notes, vibrato.
Hard to "unsee" !
Wow dude. That was some awesome playing skills and a nice pritty tune. *-----Q-----*
Man, this clip at the end of the video 5:33 it's so beautiful. Can you please play the full song? That be awesome to hear it.
Hi, I just ordered my k24 and couple weeks ago and I’m starting to think about potential setups. How is Valter connecting the two outputs of the Y cable into the effects pedal here, is it just left and right input and mono output?
I play bass and I really would love a bass version of this. There is a treble version, but no bass version. I hope I can afford one some day. They are worth it, but I don't have the money.
Cool. Now where can I try one?
Cool
Very cool
Me regalaron una arpeggi antigua pero sin cuerdas ,es de 16 cuerdas , puedo conseguir cuerdas sueltas en la casa de música .... Me puede decir cuáles cuerdas debo comprar para completar 16
Nice!
You know somebody's going to ask about Eruption by the late great EVH.
Is it made of Norwegian Wood?
So he hammers his fingers like on a fretted instrument with a headstock and neck?
Schoewen dink ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Do you have to have a background in piano?
He clearly said in the video he does b
I wouldn't think it's necessary, it is its own instrument. It would certainly help though
Me sweating and breathing heavily watching that coffee mug flail around that beautiful instrument..
Why does he have a cup and he’s acting like that
What an amazing instrument, I'm obsessed with it!
I loved the comment: It's very playable. As I am in the process of deciding to buy such a beautiful instrument and I am far from being as experienced as Valter, I keep on looking for more videos about a Harpejji by Marcodi and I'm planning on placing my order in a few weeks to finally get started.
Looking forward to building you a beautiful instrument when you are ready! :-)
I’m grabbing myself one definitely!!😳👌🙆🏾♂️
And they only cost from $4500-$7000! Not quite as cheap as an autoharp! But WOW! What a SOUND! And the electric effects make it that much cooler sounding!
I am one year into learning to play piano, just grade three. What would be my chances to learn to play this beautiful instrument?
Once you've heard it, you cannot unhear it. What a beautiful norwegian wood rendition! This must have been around the fifth time I've come back to this video just to listen to those 45 seconds!
You might know this by now, but the dude made a video cover of the whole song.
@@mortimer6266 somehow this one is better though lol
I was about to say "Norwegian Wood bro!"
What a beautiful sounding instrument ❤😊 I want 😍 one
This is Soooooooo Cool
You rock, Time, what an awesome instrument! would love to hear more of what you can do with those low bass strings
Part of me really wants one, but tuning has got to be a pain. My nylon string acoustic needs to be tuned almost daily. How well does the harp hold its tuning? How often does it have to be adjusted?
Hi Michael! It can depend on variables like humidity, temperature, or type of playing style. If you are playing several hours a day, then I expect it is normal to have to tune it a couple of times during practice. Most guitar players need to tune every time they play. But, the harpejji holds its tune longer than a guitar because the strings are not wound on a tuning peg. Tuning is also very easy! See video here on harpejji tuning: ruclips.net/video/8nriBrXoyDk/видео.html
Great
Tim Meeks? Whoever/whatever his name is, he seems dead inside.
How often do you change strings?
Man, this guy can play!!
I'd love to get one of these but the only ones on the website are custom shop specials
I would love a cheaper model as well, but unfortunately the large amount of strings and frets over what's basically a large slab of wood makes it much more expensive than a typical mid-range guitar by default.
That was weird!
Wowww......
Those instruments are ridiculously expensive but they look super fun
Nice!
Damn!
Damn, that's like a guitar, base and a Hammond organ all in one...
That is truly beautiful.
Maybe it's like this already, but having two pickups would be cool. The treble going into a guitar amp and the bass going into a bass amp. Two separate tones together, Is that doable?
The K24 has two seperate channels for the bass and treble so you can send them to seperate effects or amps.
@@ConnorMeeks28 Very cool! I'm highly interested!
So when's Floyd Rose coming out with a drop in unit for this?
Omg. Monumental instrument. Thank you
O nome desse instrumento?
Harpejji
Uskumatult mahlane kõla.
What's the tune at 3:41? Kinda sounds like Lorelai by Fleet Foxes
Norwegian wood
The intonation is especially impressive. Somehow it seems they got around the temperament problem that plagues guitars. The major 3rds ring perfectly in tune instead of very sharp like most guitars. Equal temperament like a piano?
Very impressive!
why is a third on an equal tempered guitar different than a third on an equal tempered piano?
@@chrisc7265 In theory, not much different. All equal temperament is "wrong". But guitars especially tend to exaggerate the effect especially closer to the nut, because the player is adding tension to the string when playing the note. A piano's string is under much higher tension, and the additional tension of impact from the hammer is insignificant.
@@G5Hohn ah gotcha, I was trying to think if there's some reason it wouldn't be the same equal tempered scale on guitar
but yeah, no such thing as an in tune guitar --- tune it to one open chord and the others sound awful
I need one! Question first, I am a piano player but not a guitar player. Will I have an easier time playing or is this more designed for people who have played piano AND guitar?
As someone who comes from a piano background but also has played the guitar, the Harpejji seems to favor piano technique over guitar since it has you use both hands to play notes from a keyboardist position, however the instrument is a very good intersection between piano and guitar so there won't be much of a different in the long run. Essentially, a guitarist will have to learn to play like a pianist and a pianist will have to learn to _think_ like a guitarist.
@@JXter_ thank you!! 🥰
Its just the matter of time, i am yet to order one as well. From the first time i saw it i determined i would buy one too.
2 years later have u gotten one? There so expensive 😭
so epic I just wish there was a cheaper line. I need all 24 strings but a more mass-produced level of quality and price. use crap wood, paint it a solid color, I don't care, i just need the functionality for like 1500 bucks. you say it's not possible? uhh, what i see in a bill of materials for an economic version of the same thing would leave a lot of profit at 1500 bucks. the construction is dead simple there's nothing to it except the muting system... WHICH by the way, NEEDS to have a switch to defeat it. I understand the purpose but instead of a hard on/off mute - it really needs to have a little computer chip controlling it intelligently... various things could be done, such as sustaining a note that's been played but let go of, like a keyboard sustain pedal, until it slowly dies off or that string is played again. in some situations the abruptness of the cutoff hampers it... yes it's guitar like, but to be a real piano/guitar hybrid the abrupt killswitch takes away from the piano-ness of it, and I feel there's probably a couple different ways to tackle that to some degree. for example, each string should have it's OWN mute on or off function, so the strings can be played open (non-fretted). that way if you want to use one or several bass strings as a droning note while you play over it, it would be possible. you could tune those bass strings to your desired notes if necessary, to get past the whole tone tuning limitation. no reason why I shouldn't be able to hit an open low C note and then use both hands elsewhere playing over it, none whatsoever. although understandably the more advanced features I'm talking about might justifiably remain limited to the more expensive models, but they should absolutely have some features like that. but if you just give me a basic one for 1000-1500 i'll be happy.
oh, and the 16 string one needs to be able to go lower than C2... I don't like that the 12 string and 16 string have the same low note, but the 16 goes higher. if anything, I want the expanded bass range - or a split octave setup where i have a low octave or octave and a half, and then a higher 2 or 3 octaves. perhaps the 16 string can be restrung and retuned to provide the lower register, idk.
Damn, dude! This is the Harpeji-as is! You go and build this instrument that you just described yourself rather than chew on them to redesign their product to suit you.
@@deegeorge5711 it's called product feedback, sharing ideas, most builders appreciate that. If they want to sell millions of units they need to hit lower price points period. The other ideas, if they could be implemented (per string muting certainly could) are just genius and would bring insane new levels of possibility in play style.
To sustain the note they can retain the instant mute but have a dsp chip continue outputting the sound, like a reverb or sustain or any way you like - its dsp. It could sustain infinitely like a keyboard patch. I'm only suggesting increased versatility that's optional for the player. It's a natural and obvious evolution of the base instrument, no one would complain about more features.
the thing is when you'd let go of a note it's not gonna keep playing that note it'd just be the note of the open string
@@lucyfer_the_bat yes unless it was muting the string but using a DSP effect to hold the note like a reverb, delay, sustain etc.
Easy - pedals!
this instrument is so unique and different, it opens up new ways of playing and tones, i dont understand why people endup playing typical things you can play in a guitar or a keyboard, i feel that an instrument like this challenges you to think beyond what you would normally do and it will produce amazing results
Sounds like the Chapman's Stick. Kind of looks like the Chapman's Stick. Has 2.4 more strings than the Stick. Hmmmm very cool idea, though it would be nice to mention its an evolution of the Champman's Stick.
