Great video, very interesting .. Always enjoy your style, and philosophies Maybe you could build a small isolation cabinet to eliminate background noise..

Hey from northern Ontario Canada Love your style, curiosity and your delivery. Just subscribed, I’m in,haha Keep up the great videos

Heya, I just stumbled on your videos and I really enjoy them! The tone, the stuff you do and how you talk about it! It feels freeing in a way I think I kinda lost somewhere.. thank you!

My clock never speaks to me either but I sure have a few choice words for it every morning

I have so much to learn from you.

look up fffiddle and modular fiddle from openfabpdx, the mudolar fiddle especially is exceptionally designed and is entirely acoustic (and can be fitted with pickups of course)

Those who must ask a question "why?", will not understand the answer "and why not". I expected the clocks alarm sounds and spring winding to be included also - maybe it would have been too cliche, but would certainly not be identical amongst the clocks. ...Not too mention, 1am serenade of alarms would supply you with additional library of neighbourly expressions of disapproval of your experiments😜 PS.: A large carton box stuffed with a blanket makes an excellent recording dead box.

Another banger! I dig your style. Have you considered a restoration plug-in like iZotope RX to deal with background noises? Rock on!!!

i really enjoyed the sampled clock sounds; ended up with some really unique textures. i agree with the points about busywork as well. it seems like many now iconic sounds were born of tedious experimentation with no real goal other than the pursuit of something unachievable. thanks for the insights

Where did you get your springs??

Surprisingly good.

I mean... It sounds (excuse my language) fucking amazing. I've always wanted to get into playing violin. I just recently got a 3D printer.

Already in Love With This Beautiful Cat....He is Priceless!

My k2000's screen has to be tapped every 5 minutes to be visible and the effects are completely broken. Any patch with fx just scream at me so I use the dry outs. I've started to open it, but I got stuck and replaced the screws and backed away

It sounds like you are rewinding a cassette. Fun! :D

I love you as a UA-camr!

THE BEES!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve opened up multiple K2000’s more times than I can remember. Changing the backlights out 3 different times was the worst though. Nice video, thanks for sharing.

FREEBIRD! FREEBIRD! Hey this isn't a bad attempt. You need to separate the button/string contacts into two parts. Bolt/screw the string contacts to the button with a settable angle to fine tune each button/note.

Alrightly! The stl files are now available for anyone who wants to take a stab at this thing. Just remember this is very much a work in progress, so... well... you've seen the video, right? www.composerkristin.com/humblegrumble.html Good luck? Enjoy? Keep on making that noise ⁉

Good morning, I own a K2000 and a PC3. Can you tell me the version of your Rom setup? Thank you beforehand. Boujour de France

At the end of your video I realized the reverb effect didn't quite compensate lack of the resonance box. I'm trying to figure out how this problem can be solved using sound effects? Or just print out the entire instrument, and make it sound more traditional? Anyway, that was interesting.

With all due respect, why not use lock washers? EDIT: or loctite

After posting I starting thinking that the Performer v5 disk was kind of a high version number, so I did a little digging. Apparently Digital Performer and Performer did technically exist at the same time by this point, but I don't think the first version or two of Digital Performer were particularly accessible to most people. It wasn't until the late 90s/early 2000s that actually recording to your hard disk like we do today was feasible for the average composer/musician. If anyone remembers/has experience with those early Digital Performer versions during this time... comment!

I recently found a case of 3.5" floppys with my old Reason 1.0 projects on them (circa 2000). Not sure how to load them, I could buy a 3.5" reader, then buy the latest Reason and hope it loads (doubtful it would play as it did on v1.0).. but.. regardless, for us historians, it is interesting finding such relics. :)

Ha! Good one. I started on Passport Designs Master Tracks Pro with a Yamaha DX7. Hashtag historian

The lovely wonky sound is the benefit of it being too short. It's impossible to control the peg position on a short string as the pressure also increases the string tension too much. (Chicken & Egg problem) I kind of get that the wonky sound was probably part of the highly desirable feature set, but if you make it longer, you will be able to actually control the pitch to some extent. And of course, the wheel edge shouldn't be 3D printed you can glue a wooden veneer on it, sand it smooth and use rosin.

hey thanks so much for doing this! I have a K2000VP, which got in 97 and that is dusty and some keys not working properly... so this video is soooooooo goood and helpful!🙏🙏🙏 also loved the background electronic music 👌👌

Maybe mixing forward/backward motion can make the string sing better? Violin Bow motion is creating stick/slide to keep the string keep vibrting. Just my guessing.

Inspiring! I'm waiting on 2 RAM Chips for the effects unit to fix the dreaded Effects ticking sound - when they come I'll do a similar full clean as well as removing the SCSI hard drive - I replaced the floppy drive with a CF card reader when it failed. Also use it as a MIDI controller, and as a live gig keyboard when our player comes in from out of town.

I love the Humble Grumble!

Classic Skinny Puppy (Dwayne Goettel). If the keybed gets iffy you can run it via midi as a "module". In the 90's a used Roland JX-3p was all I could afford, sounded great though 🤠

This is sick!

At around 9:00 are sounds that would make Luigi Rusolo proud of you! 😄👍🏼

very nice

The initialization at power up means the battery is dead. Which reminded me to check on mine. 😊 Great great keyboard.

Great stuff, original! It reminds me quite a bit of the Future Sound of London tracks from the mid 90s, like "Lifeforms".

I love unique instruments. Ive alway wanted to build my own hurdy gurdy. I love the sound it makes. Its like im teleported back in time to a fantasy land. I'm glad you are putting your own spin on it. Keep going.

The initial playtrhough made me think one could play a somewhat-decent blues on this thing. But of course a mosquito swarm works too.

You know, according to contemporary descriptions... this is probably closer to what "real" hurdy gurdies sounded like, before proper luthiers started making them. XD

Grumble sounds like an interesting drone machine. There's a free VST by the name of "Solaris" by Adam Szabo if you haven't tried it. It's basically a reverb but the patches and parameters really lend themselves towards drone making and finding a little bit of inspiration and ocassional hits of dopamine.

I liked and subscribed after reading some comments and your replies. I appreciate the Gen-X humor... plus I like how you're not the "usual" music maker doing tutorials. Keep going.

This came up on my feed. I own a K2000 R/S from 1994. I was always the weird dude with a K2000... especially when the K2500 had just come out. Loved it... especially coming from an Ensonic Mirage.

Kristin, just finished the entire performance. I wonder if you would be amenable to a “how to” video on how a work like this is performed and recorded. For instance, do you play into a looper and then the looper’s output is fed into your DAW’s inputs? Or do you loop the performances within Ableton itself? I have no idea if your listeners would be interested, but I would like to see your techniques in making a similar short piece.

A little late for Halloween for me but love the look and the sounds. You should do more of these lengthier improvs.

fascinating

Great vid.. I've done this many times with my (many) PC88's.
