    Finally a brand that doesn’t copy other products but rather tries to experiment

    Always a pleasure to see Tats showing off his projects. He seems so down to earth and approachable, and so very passionate about his work.

    I'm so delighted to see Korg continuing with this project, and that it's quite experimental and unique in nature. It's more kalimba than electromechanical piano currently. I'd be interested to see if/how then can introduce more notes, with midi control. Maybe using nanotechnology, tiny physical resonators, a full 8 octave range of pitches. But that's a different project, much more complex, and the simplicity and limitations around this one are part of its charm. I'd definitely want to be able to tune each note in this version, and it should be microtonal capable. An electromechanical Lyra kalimba with sequencer, packaged in a piezo noisebox

      Tempting but I wonder how much. It will cost?

      I posted another comment a little further down with a link to a video that has a Qun synth resonating similar to what I heard on this video of the Korg. Mics as input to effector. This korg is neat because it does real world resonance and it sounds like it could get really mean and growling if they actually played it. So I’m excited.

    • @MichaelUhler
      @MichaelUhler Месяц назад +2

      My thoughts exactly. This could potentially become a Fender Rhodes on STEROIDS!

    • @MantasticHams
      @MantasticHams Месяц назад +2

      theres no way you are going to get a pleasant acoustic sound in low frequencies from something smaller than the wave you are trying to excite out of it...

    I absolutely love it! Tatsuya is a bloody genius, and with his team, he's exploring new ways of making musical instruments. Acoustic Synthesis is a great link between classic vintage instruments of the past and digital ones, bringing the uniqueness of the physical human interaction with the instrument to shapes the sound.

    one of the most interesting instruments ive seen in recent memory. this has incredible implications. id love to see even further "superimposed" components for processing, in addition to the vcas, such as analog filters and maybe some sort of modulation to the electromagnetic "exciter"

    I for one really like the concept behind it, it really speaks to me. It's limited and flawed but that's exactly the reason I like it. There are more flexible and "powerful" options out there for more pragmatic uses but this has a very unique character to it that I would love to have in my setup

    super interesting module, I have been watching all the phase5 videos from last years sb, and seeing it further develop, im hopeful to hear future demonstrations of the phase8, with alternate resonating vibrations i guess it would be, to get different tambres [apart from the adsr aspects seen, which is still cool]. Thanks for showing it

    I love that they are chronicling their journey at various stages of prototyping. I hope something production comes of this, for now we wait... gosh it's sort of like an electronic kalimba that can take midi input. Really amazing. I've loved seeing electric kalimbas used as source oscillators to feed into filter and effects boxes.

    This is the most exciting instrument I have seen in my 17 years of playing. I hope this comes out to production. Also about the choice of floating or not, you could incorporate a physical damper lever giving the user to isolate that sound or let it reverberate on the enclosure. Just a thought, this is so cool.

    • @timandtheocean
      @timandtheocean Месяц назад

      Btw would be great if the unit got midi input and that each note in the octave get like a last note prio. like this you can stack the accoustic reso with poly synth patches and your not limited to play in 1 octave only.
      if the sound is going to be great then 2 octaves would have my preference.
      I imagine to use it for accoustic feedback with an guitar and amp.
      The sound is... mwha... a more solid pitch fork sounds better.

  • @CarfDarko
    @CarfDarko Месяц назад

    What a cute and interesting little synth, it feels like an ultraluxe Volca made love with a Kalimba.
    Totally something out of my range in a heavy pianoroll midi studio but feels like something that can do wonders for jams or to add during or after the mix itself.
    One to keep an eye on for sure!

    Lfo, audiorate to a crawl. Envelope follower in or or audio in to use them as physical resonators,and variable state filter or filters then it would be helpful in sound design and cinematic audio. I love the prepared piano element. It needs at least some serious atonal textural capability if we are remaining in scythe same scale wonderful idea❤❤❤❤
