Building a musical prototype - The Ondophone

- This short build log provides a few close up views of the Ondophone, a musical instrument envisioned by Martin Molin.
You can see his Ondophone video on the Wintergatan channel: • Ondophone - A New Musi...
Or watch Martin play on a saw instead: • CHANNEL UPDATE: Playin...
Shout out also to Carlos Montoro and Chris Nadon for their contributions.

This prototype just blew my mind when i unpacked it... It really did the job of a prototype since it kind of disqualified the naive idea :) Awesome video and awesome Design Florian!
When you are ready for the next project after the MMX is finished, please don't give up on the ondophone!
It would be very interesting if this was used on the MMX. I wonder how you would be able to move all those things without looking at it.

I love the song you made with it. :D
The video of you playing it @wintergatan was phenomenal. @fhuable, killer work my friend.
rewatching this after a while, and you are such a good sport about martin abandoning the ondophone! I hope the ondophone succeeds someday!
It was a pleasure to work with you on this Florian! I had the chance to play with it when I was with Martin and you what you did is oustanding, such a level of different skills in one piece is out of this planet. Looking forward to complete the Ondo someday!
High praise from a master luthier! Thanks Carlos. It was great to work together on this.
Martin's Ondophone video was one of my favorites, so this was a real treat. I can't wait to see what your new project is!
Same !
Took the words out of my mouth Noah! Fhuable thank you for helping create this awesome instrument!
My favorite wintergatan video.
Would love to see this instrument sold commercially. It may not have been what Martin wanted, but it would do great as it's own musical instrument.
Martin ‘s got to revive the ondophone. He’s got to !
You never know
@@fhuable I hope so
Here is a way that you could add feedback to the slider, without snapping/locking it into place: add a small vibrating motor (similar to a cell phone or game controller), which is connected to a contact. wherever a virtual "fret" is desired, a metal strip could be placed. This way, when the circuit is closed, the motor would vibrate.
additionally, if continues vibrating is not desired, the contact could be connected to a monostable circuit, which would then drive the motor, to provide a short pulse on an edge of the signal.
I just rewatched Martin’s ondophone video yesterday, and now this video just popped up.
Mixing music with mechanics its always interesting. I love it.
It's be cool to see it on the album or tour, even if it's not attached to the marble machine. Great work!
Thank you so much for help the Wintergatan comunity!!
genius design
I just got some ideas about putting two striker like triggers on the sliding block with tiny triggers. Imagine instead of pressing the block down, you click or press one of the triggers and a small pin or striker or whatever you wanna call it is levered and hits the string. Then if you can have one set for multiple fingers or the thumb, and the block doesn't have to slide up and down to play a note. And if you want tremolo you can press down on the entire block, but the strikers would need to be the right length, so even when the entire block is pushed down, they only play the note of the pressed button. I have ideas and no skills in mocking up said ideas. This is just a fascinating design puzzle. I really just gotta bite the bullet and get my own 3D printer.
Fascinating journey with a challenging customer 😀 Thx for sharing and good luck with the new project!
but i m also looking forward to your new mystery project :D
I'm having a vision for a similar instrument, but with less mechanics/acoustics: The slider is done using a tensioning belt with a motor on one side. The motor acts both as a sensor for the position as well as an autotune/frets by applying some force (easily configurable). Instead of pressing the whole thing down, you have some Carrera-like joystick in your hand to control the play and the volume and stuff.
The Ondophone Song is my favorite song.
So this is what the Animusic Resonant Chamber would look like in real life!
Maybe you guys just write history! Very nice!
Great to see this project from your perspective! Can't wait to see what you are working on next! I hope its Ondophone v2! :)
This is an awesome instrument, well done !
Thanks great journey!😊
Frick'n lasers. Cool. Can't wait for the new project.
Everything is better with lasers ;)
I too would love to see this concept go further!
Großartig 🙌🔥🙌
would love to see a production version of the instrument, because i absolutely love it
I wish Martin changes his mind about the instrument, it's just such a nice concept
Cuánta imaginación y cuanto talento hay en todo lo que rodea este proyecto.
Buen video, a ver si se revive este instrumento. 💪
Saludos!
Nice
Great video
It's a musical saw, ok? I've played one too - they're really difficult to play and make it sound nice, but at least it's possible, unlike normal handsaws.
Wie immer Hut ab Florian. Grüße Michael
All cool, but the Answers With Joe tribute added another fun layer. :-)
😆 I wasn't sure anyone would get it, but couldn't resist
WOW! ❤️
I wonder if the prototype could be turned on its side to work almost like a guitar
Can't way to see what we end up with.
Brilliant. I want one... Kickstarter?
put a continuum slider board under the strings to make it a eurorack/synth/acoustic hybrid. send me two.
I have no idea what you just said ;) But if someone makes that I'd love to see a video
@@fhuable I'm referring to a midi style strip controller (with cv out ideally) that doubles as the fret board. I have no idea if its possible. like the original Ondes having a ring mechanism that gives signals to synth. except this would be a little more grounded within the acoustic sound. add a peizo mic to pick up the string noises to something like a low pass gate or just mix the sound.
Did he mention that he's not a musician? 🤔
"did i mention i am not a musici..ANYWAY" XD
5:26 ???
You mean the audio? That was my clumsy attempt to lighten the mood with a joke ;)
