Has it been realised that it would be possible to operate the vibrato speed with footpedal as well so you could pretty much forget about the preset ? Also it looks that it would be more ergonomic to play if the instrument was angled forward, in other words slightly away from the player. The angle of wrists related to the bars would be considerable less causing less friction. Some keyboard players do that.
There are several tips for constructing marimbas Attend a school or self-study via an online course Ensure you are completely committed to it before you begin (I read these and why they work from Delfords magic plan site )
I don't play vibraphone, or any percussive instrument at that (I play trombone), but I have to say, next to baritone sax, vibraphone is one of my favorite jazz instruments (that I don't play).
The vibrato is actually a tremolo similar to what is used on an electronic organ. The motor he mentioned is attached via a rubber belt that spins a shaft, this shaft has a disc attached to it in each tube under the vibraphone keys, this creates the tremolo effect. Organs use a Styrofoam baffle with just a portion cut out to allow the sound to pass from the speaker at a different frequency causing the tremolo effect. It would be similar to placing your hand in front of your mouth as you make a sound, moving your hand forward and back causes a tremolo effect.

He does know that the "vibrato" effect is really amplitude modulation and has little to do with pitch variation. There is of course a minor pitch modulation aspect to the butterfly value rotation but it is mainly for amplitude modulation.
I thought they duplicated then phase shifted one of the waveforms, and the knob controlled the speed of the phase shift. Obviously the phase shift does alter the pitch of the 'wet' waveform, but not noticeably. The amplitude change is a side effect of the phase shifted waveform canceling out the original waveform.
hello! thx a lot for ur video! But I'm not sure if I need to depress the pedal when the motor is turning on, can u tell me this please? thank u very much!
Cool! Uhm, How can I notate this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AV9biGrLGYk.htmlm32s soud ('keep down and pull back' Technique) on the score? is there special notation?
You couldn't borrow a personal mic? Phooey. I hope you'll reshoot someday and use microphones. Using the camera's mic in an enclosed, hard walled space is a very bad idea. Now you know. Forward!
