"Pirates of the Caribbean" on Musical Tesla coils

[TheVistaLord]

lol eat your heart out bill nye

[TripleSevenPagan]

freakin epic...I want one of these thing sooo bad

[TripleSevenPagan]

This is epic =D i love it good job

[HAYDENATOR35]

how much did it cost to build the coil, including the micro-controller and all the other circuitry?

[123goldengun]

totaly made my day

:)

[Konoton01]

That's an awful lot of junk to be keeping around an active Tesla Coil, I woulden't be suprised if there were some dirty rags about.

They say "All it takes is one spark" well... Right fuckin' here.

[crazeman5522]

@Konoton01 Well you know sparks can hit stuff like rags all day long and not set them on fire. You really have to make it arc to it for a long time to get it to heat it up enough to set it on first. This is because the spark event last for <100uS at a duty cycle of <8% in most cases. Hardy enough to set first to most things.

But obviously you are the expert, here.

[Konoton01]

@crazeman5522

There's your sign.

[yoblackops7]

Electro music XD

[colea310]

where can i get one, and how much?

[rammsteinfreundsonne]

@colea310 build it self !

[colea310]

@rammsteinfreundsonne how?

[rammsteinfreundsonne]

@colea310 you need a coil, a coildriver and a audiodriver

[123roromantic]

wtf? this isnt fake. ive done this at home. you connect the tesla coil to a keyboard piano which explains the piano music in the background..

[crazeman5522]

@123roromantic Nope sorry but you are wrong too :P I do play piano, however I was not playing the coil in this video with a keyboard. The controller was being fed MIDI data from a laptop which was also playing though the laptop speaks which is what you hear when the coil is not playing.

I chanallenge Wurminfektion to find some special FX that match what I do in this video, because if big name FX house can't do it what is that chances I did? Or it could just be real...

[Wurminfektion]

fake... obviously

[ThaAssketeers]

@Wurminfektion are you a idiot or just pretending to be one

[ShinjteSakura]

total...

Win...

[123roromantic]

He plays a piano which is connected to it....I having it at home

[jon10388]

I am 95% sure that your electric bill would be much less if you just used speakers like the rest of us.

[TheLemonGrenade]

@jon10388 Yeah but

Who doesn't wanna rock out with the pure sound of raw lightning?

[EdwardT250]

Really cool!! Tesla coils are the best!!!

[Tubalsky]

1. Where did you get this tesla coil;

2. How do you get sounds out of this? With a computer programm?

3. Is it hard to understand the using?

[MrOwnzor]

@Tubalsky You dumbshit, the coil's sparks produce the sound effects due to very high frequencies. Why would he use a computer programme, to prove what? This wouldn't be what it's supposed to be.

You can make it at home, the only too expensive thing to buy is the AC you'll need cause of its high voltage required.

It's not hard to understand, you make the AC send the required voltage for the coil to produce the sound effect of each note. The frequency is the key to the different notes he gets.

[Shadowassasin14]

How much of that stuff had burn marks? Still cool

[Aleph13Experience]

Very COOL!!!

[nubz0r]

Awesome!

[MalNichtEgal]

hahahahah Funny

[dcm080994]

I wish I had a tesla coil just laying around in my garage

[cosmo1226]

@crazyman5522 play party rock anthem next

[SuperAwesomeDrago]

i have one from my uncle, it works, i use it in my garage, but i cant get the notes to be like it sounds like it, i have tuned it up and down and everything

[gfxkghilk]

SO EPIC!!!

[148MrKiller]

It is a light show and music at once... :D

[anelovseth]

completely brilliant !!!!!!!

[AXE2501]

savy are we?

[TheInsanebrain247]

It sounds like someone's playing a keytar on"electric". Sounds cool.

[thehumor]

what is actually the sound that is making?

Because i dont know how that works?

[VascusGaming]

@thehumor It's the air vibrating creating energy making sound. When something it is heated it must shake rapidly to expel heat. It's how music is made on a guitar string etc, it's all vibration. Instead, its the air vibrating instead of a string.

[thehumor]

@VascusGaming

ok thanks

[peaceoutwhat]

excuse me buti think he is concerned about the amount of possibly flammable objects in the room but i am sure you know what you are doing and i trust it

[LeKrizz]

@peaceoutwhat electricity itself is not ''hot'', it only makes metal get very warm or wood burn when it is short circuited.

[crazeman5522]

@TeletubyofDOOM You obviously don't know much about this, so what make your qualified to judge if this is dangerous? If you want to put down some ones handwork go do it somewhere else.

[TeletubyofDOOM]

@crazeman5522 I'm sorry that you feel that way but what if something went wrong.

[crazeman5522]

@TeletubyofDOOM You still didn't answer my question, what makes you qualified to judge what makes this dangerous? You don't have to answer the question because I know why your not answering it, because you don't know. I personally know what I'm doing from years of experience, so go bother some one that is closer to your knowledge level, because you obviously don't know what your talking about here.

[kitedh]

@crazeman5522 I have no idea if this is dangerous or not. But what makes it not dangerous? Could you answer..just for informational purposes :)

[crazeman5522]

@kitedh What makes it not dangerous for me is my years of experience with high voltage and power electronics. I would also rather not get into the issue of safety anymore, I'm sick of explaining my self to every one.

[agentEE7]

how the heck are you getting chords out of a single coil!!!!

[crazeman5522]

@agentEE7 It's rather simple you just play multiple notes at the same time :P

[NobleProtocol]

@crazeman5522 Do the Halo: Rock Anthym for saving the world theme :)

[XXfartmunkiesXX]

@agentEE7 It's just that awesome.

[FalconX88]

@agentEE7 you can get whole songs out of one speaker.

[MrCricket0277]

you can email me at dbolton_2011@yahoo.com if you ever make a video. or if you cant.

[MrCricket0277]

do you think you could make a video of you making one? its ok if you can't i just would really like to build one for myself so i can intertain friends and family.

[MrCricket0277]

hey i was wandering if anyone could make a video on how to make one of these? i have tried and tried to find one that explains it step by step but have not had any luck. Thank you/

[crazeman5522]

@MrCricket0277 The reason why that is because it can't be explained step by step, it's just to complex. Also most people that do this sort of thing learn it by many hours of experimentation and hard work, and that is not something most people give up lightly.

[Poofiemus]

Very nice! Are you actually getting chords out of a single coil, or is there second off camera?

Also, while this is really cool to watch, I seriously hope your home insurance provider doesn't see this. They'd probably have a fit and raise your rates, warranted or not. XD

[crazeman5522]

@Poofiemus yes I am getting chords out of a single coil.

[dark10angelxxx]
