Thank U, great and very usefull, very inspiring ! And by the way, did you consider exciting the plate magneticaly, directly without any physical contact ?
Great video!!! I've been wanting to build my own plate for a long time. Regarding the steel plate itself... Do you have any thoughts on other sizes or ratios? Always rectangular or maybe square? (As I recall, the EMT plates were 4' x 8' - which I couldn't handle in my set-up). And might grommets on the holes for the springs help to isolate the plate from the frame? And.... would a thinner plate have more of a shimmer/sparkle? Thanks!
honestly what I did was go to each of the local hardware stores and tap on the plates to see which I liked the sound of most, that by far made the most difference versus the second and third plate reverbs I've made, I've been trying this a while its been a passion project haha, do it though, if you have a closet and some hangers you can make a plate reverb, mine's just where I used to hang my pants lmfao
Hello. I have a Harley Benton GA5 guitar amp into which I would like to build in a spring reverb. Which I'll take from an old Laney PL50 Reverb Can you tell me where to attach it according to the diagram? I want to build it into the body and mix in the sound of reverb.
im surprised how similar this sounds to mine, minus the low frequency response haha, I used a cell phone vibrator on a 4x4ft steel plate, I never recorded samples of the stereo since i intended to rebuild it with a bit higher quality, i guess its that piezo sound? i've wanted to experiment with using cheap dynamic mics and forcibly gluing their diaphragms
@@percaros since making that comment I've actually rebuilt mine with a 6' x 3' plate, that honestly I went around to the local hardware stores and tapped on each large metal plate they had to see which sounded best, then used a 4" speaker glued to a block of wood then directly to the plate as the input transducer, I found some large piezos hoping it'd help with the low end, but I think these things just need an ultra high impedance input to function properly, I don't have a driver circuit made up for them but its something I've been thinking of doing time and time again, I agree though, a coil/magnet would pick up much more mids, but frankly that's kinda where my plate is lacking at the moment, more just an experiment or something i could switch between with a footswitch
@@ratchetboothe one in my closet is just hung freely, i am currently working on a newer one though that's just generic 2x4's with wood screws, not too difficult, was my first time working with wood and it looks terrible but if it sounds good it sounds good
This video is amazing, can't wait to build my own one
Wow, so cool, dass Du das alles so systematisch durchgetestet hast! Mega!
Sounds great!

Thx for the effort, this goes to the list of I never knew. All the best
NIce video thanks. So in the final resultat (which sounds best) you use a speaker and a cork to transmit the vibration onto the plate ?

I do want this, I do want this, I do want this!

thanks for these exactly descriptions 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Great work bud boo
What is the thickness of your steel plate? Thank you so much
.05mm it's in the video
@@copelandguitar thank you so much
Gute Erklärung, danke hat mir sehr geholfen 👍☺️
Where's that aluminum frame from brotha?
Helpful video! What's the song from 3:48?

sticking the module of a dynamic mic won't work properly since it won't pick up the vibrations of the plate as well as a piezo does

Where did u get the frame bud?

@@searchiemusic oh sweet. I wonder if the wood is rigid enough to provide resonance on the plate? How thick is the plate you're rocking my lad?
Great!
Thx buddy ur the best 🥑
Cool
