Dear Vlad, I am so looking forward to this! I feel I still have a long road to truly master vast possibilities of Pipe, and this beauty will be next. I can't thnk you enough for all your innovative work.
This sounds soooooooooooooooo organic, round and balanced. Light years ahead of other new "electrified" string instruments I've heard. I love that it's fret-less. Really fulfills it's free spirited karma, allowing any temperaments or free form tuned playing. It's really only limited by how much one is willing to practice their hand skills. :3 Love seeing the work shop. This thing feels so right.
It seems that genius Vlad made the instruments such as Lyra, Enner, Terra and Dvina, merely for himself, the way he plays them so natrually, that only few musicians could really match, and I am not one of them.
I will get one. Promise. I'm plugging it into my FSS TG-5 preamp and strumming it with an e-bow. That and plenty of noise from the Lyra Delay. Can't wait!
Mad. You've made a combo Sitar, violin. I wonder at the instrument's range with only 2 strings. I love the depth of sound from the 'extended' version. So middle-Europe/12th century. Sounds great though :0D
Sounds incredible! And I'm a synth guy with an unnatural love for trackers and have never played any form of string instrument in my life. This thing could lure me to the stringed side.
@@1e0isfdkorblpg the materials alone are over $50 lol. And I guess you would work for free? Do not try create and sell stuff if you think that’s a fair price. You would ruin your business in a week.
Wow, really lovely sound. Could be a seriously big learning curve to play as well as the chap here. How many years does it take to learn the cello or similar string instruments?
Ну что, взять ножку от стула, прикрутить струну одну или две, поставить пьезу и выуаля - готов инструмент! Остальное сделает набор гитарных комбиков и звуковуха в ноуте... Главное - настроить правильно!
Thank You for Your opinion, but I agree with You only partially. You need to be able to play any instrument in order to get the most out of it. Regardless of whether it is a violin or a tambourine. Isn't it?-)
Hello Vlad. I want to purchase this beautiful instrument , but I get no answer on my request at Soma. Are they any problems with email correspondence or am I just to impatient? =P anyway , I love yours and Victor's work , you will change how we make music and i hope I'll be sooner or later a proud owner of the Dvina. Best wishes Dennis
Persian kamanchen, Russian gudok, Mongol morin khoor, Tatar/Kazakh/Bashkir/Turkic kobyz etc. It's such a basic idea so it has many incarnations with different names
A great instruemnt but it has one big (commercial) limitation: Just as with a violin you need to be an expert player to get the best out of it. This actually makes it almost diametricly opposed to other Soma instruments which are more tuned towards intuitive use.
Здравствуйте, не могли бы вы поделится как правильно, вернее как у вас, размечена Двина. я имею ввиду гриф. Я собрал Двину сам а вот насчет разметки ....никак. Заранее спасибо
@@somasynths реально разузнать у вас детали (схема, расположение струн и магнитов, трансформатор) для самостоятельного изготовления чего-то похожего на dvina?
That sounds exceptional!
MY DVINA,IS BEING MADE,AS WE SPEAK,SURELY CAN'T WAIT,SPOKE WITH VICTOR THE BUILDER,EVERYONE @ SOMA,ARE WONDERFUL!!!
I just got to place an order today :) Unbelievably excited
I am a proud owner of your pipe and am really excited to get my hands on this! thanks for all of your hard work!
pause
@@NicoHolloman walked right into that one
@@TheMainCharacter93 you really did XD there are at least 3 innuendos in there.
I have one Dvina and it's dream! Pure love, such a sound! Great instrument. Big respect to its author Viktor Grigoriev.
i will buy one the moment you start building them!
same, been emailing them about this since the old demo vid haha
a dream backpacking aid for inspiration//survival as well
BRING IT BACK!
The proof of genius! What you have given our studios to other artists!
Brillant! I love that your instruments add other flavors to the palette instead of sounding like everyone else’s.
Dear Vlad, I am so looking forward to this! I feel I still have a long road to truly master vast possibilities of Pipe, and this beauty will be next. I can't thnk you enough for all your innovative work.
I don't even play any sort of bowed instrument but this thing sounds so fantastic, I'm very tempted to start.
Mine arrived and it’s absolutely beautiful. Thank you!
The music, as always, is beautiful. Cheers Mr Kreimer ! You guy are the best ! Keep rocking ✌️🙏
Would love to see you build guitars with this pickup technology! DVINA sounds great though!
I enjoyed the music in this video very much. It calmed me.
Thank you.
Very nice. I look forward to hear this more. This is what I would like to have.
Saving now. Thanks for your innovation.
Bravo!! Hermosa creación!!
Your best customer in Thailand waiting for the release 🎼
Another of your amazing instruments I can't wait to get my hands on :o
Portable snake charming tool 🎼👑 I would definitely love to get my hands on that mesmerizing yet simple instrument
Great build design and sound!
Nice instrument! Good playing as well!
This is so great!
Can’t wait to fall in love with this instrument...
It sound very great and unique
I bet you could bang out that Violin track, On The Beach from The Queen of the Damned perfectly on this.
This is so on my list for later this year
Can´t wait to get one

Same. I will probably get this sometime as it’s kinda cheap. It’s hand made and sound this good. Absolutely worth the price.

Wow! Love it.
Sounds cool.
cool
That's damn cool!
This is insane!
Ohhhhhh I need this!
I want one!!! VLAD I LOVE YOU!!!
Sick! I want thisssss asap!
Very fuckin cool. Great work! I needs one
Добро, предобро
Wow, really lovely sound. Could be a seriously big learning curve to play as well as the chap here. How many years does it take to learn the cello or similar string instruments?
Really cool, reminds me of an erhu.
I need this to obtain enlightenment.
someday i will find one

All these SOMA lab instruments look like they are straight out of a Star Wars musical band.

Proud owner of #91 here, wondering what scale you have marked on your Dvina. Trying to get away from western scales/noise and love love this sound.
very nick cave & warren ellis instrument ..
Dvina through Pulsar-23..... speechless.
5:20 ..... bummer, no Aleksandr Balandin dismount from Victor.. :(
How to buy this instrument
Go to thomann
What kind of strings does it come with? And what are they tuned to for this beautiful piece(s)?
This is cello strings tuned C# G#
What's the tuning here? I've now received mine but want this more 'eastern' sound.
Nice! Why not to add a dsp as in the Pipe?
Have you tried this with strings meant for a kamancheh or setar?
No
Can i please just order one now!?!? Please take my money!

When did you send the order?
@@somasynths three days ago
do u make a lefty version?
Yes
@@somasynths wonderful, i will save the pennies, rob banks, whatever and email you one day soon...
wow does anyone know the names of the persian instruments that might have inspired this?
Persian kamanchen, Russian gudok, Mongol morin khoor, Tatar/Kazakh/Bashkir/Turkic kobyz etc. It's such a basic idea so it has many incarnations with different names
also don't forget the Chinese erhu, I find it sounds the most similar to dvina. :-)

Одна палка, два струна! Совершенный инструмент-лар
Is this the same as an electric erhu?
Здравствуйте, не могли бы вы поделится как правильно, вернее как у вас, размечена Двина. я имею ввиду гриф. Я собрал Двину сам а вот насчет разметки ....никак. Заранее спасибо
У меня по мотивам индийских ладов разметка. Советую либо гитарную либо диатоническую минор или мажор
@@somasynths а где подсмотреть. Ваша очень понравилась. Очень удобно на вид по крайней мере
What is the scale length? Does it use guitar strings?
The scale is 51 cm. We use flatwound electric guitar strings. Cello strings I think have to work as well (need to try)
and what about Pulsar23?
does it djent?
Very Indian !!
Who's the player?
Vlad Kreimer - the inventor
это работает по тому же принципу что и ленточный микрофон?
Совершенно верно!
@@somasynths реально разузнать у вас детали (схема, расположение струн и магнитов, трансформатор) для самостоятельного изготовления чего-то похожего на dvina?
Why Dvina?
Because
I didn't like having to read all over the screen one sentence after the other.
Amazing!
