Mario Theme played on Stepper Motors with an Arduino

[MegaSmiley]

I had a nerdgasm. Great work!

[MissGrafin]

Now that's impressive!!

[mskaka52]

Great work! Please can you send me the code. Thank you very much. tasneemmkaka@gmail.com

[desktopgeek98]

I'd like the code please! email is petermwellman@gmail.com

Will this work if you combine the channels to a piezo speaker?

[bpmakings]

Can I please have the code, blanepark@gmail.com. Soo cool

[hansenzhanghy]

So cool! And would you send the code to me? Thx!!! 940633654@qq.com

[arnokleine623]

sounds like a tesla coil

[cmhiekses]

@mampfo666 Yes, thank you for pointing this out. I think you will find that the sounds produced by these motors are rich in their harmonic content. While the step signal consists of a single frequency, the actual mechanical sound generated by the motors will have plenty of audible overtones. You should check out my other videos where I explain some of the details of how this works. Oh, and I spend plenty of time listening to the world. I conducted an orchestra for 5 years. :)

[mampfo666]

@cmhiekses sir, sorry, this one should have been going out to the guy asking who says that a higher rpm produces higher tone frequency. Love your vids, but the mario theme here is the best :D

[FightOutside]

How does music frequency correlate with stepper motor control?

[mampfo666]

@FightOutside higher speed means higer frequency?

[zurechtweiser]

@mampfo666 who says that?

[mampfo666]

@zurechtweiser law of friction?

[zurechtweiser]

@mampfo666 what about it?

[mampfo666]

@zurechtweiser I am not a free teacher. Do you have a mixer?

[zurechtweiser]

@mampfo666 You are not a teacher cause you don't know anything about friction.

[T101THEGOD]

Пацаны ваще рябята!

[compu2004]

Is it possible to send me a copy of the arduino sketch you have used?

Thanks,

you did a great work.

[TheStuartWallace]

xD Fantastic

[BankruptMonopoly]

how do u get stepper motors to make a sound like that????

[zippydebrain]

@BankruptMonopoly Sound is a bunch of waves at certain frequencies.

1kz is middle C on the piano I think (I forget exactly but it doesn't matter) so if you get the stepper motor to step 1000 times a second you would get middle C. more or less steps per second give you different notes.

[OrangeFuzzyPickles]

PROPER.



[crackhead97full]

the osng is called stepper mario

[KartSeven1]

@cmhiekses Watch at 1:00

[KartSeven1]

@cmhiekses Nice video, song, and the stepper motors! :)

[saeidkermanshah]

Can somone please tell me how can those stopper motors produce that sound? is it different voltage that makes higher/lower RPM and that makes the sound?

[tchr4ibew]

Use an old acoustic guitar body as a sound board

[therealgreatqball]

Kudos on the Underground one... that one is almost never done right by ameteurs.

[Rick1885]

A good way to keep them from vibrating on the table would be to put them on rubber pads. I do this with my speakers. Works great.

[Rick1885]

Now program em to play duelling banjos.

[MrMaxymoo22]

Will you pm me the gcode please?

[TheUfonautas]

Love it :D Must try

[vinggert]

Rly dude, I was imagining here with myself the hard work you had to make this.... it IS something.

[flyboy21141]

One word. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIICCCCC. Because just "epic" isn't enough to describe it.

[KillerKahuna]

The Mario brothers theme never gets old for some reason,

Shigeru Miyamoto is a hero among living

[DeadRaymanWalking]

@KillerKahuna I concur.

[eperezf1]

OMG! that's awesome!!

[didogazeto]

as I see in the desc...

MOTORFuck those bithing-gays who told u asshole

[RundasAran]

Hi, great video and nice work!!! Can you send me the code for arduino, please

? It's because i want to understand how can we send multiple output signals at the same time xD Thanks ;)

[zaprodk]

I'd like to take a peek at the code, very nice coding :-)

[konayasai]

I would also like to take a peek at the code. May I suggest you upload it somewhere and put the link in the description? It must be bothersome having to respond to every request.

[ElectronicaVM]

Amazing! I'm electronic student and I work with Arduino, could you send me the code please? I'll apreciate! Thank you!!

[JessiKilpatrick]

wow, i must say that this is amazing!

[ZygadenusElegans]

can I see the source code to this?

[MrAvalerin]

EPIC!!!!

[julioayalamario]

Dude, this awesome, good Joob =)

[vworonowicz]

Hello!!! Awesome work ! I was wondering if you would be able to send me the arduino code for this? I am wanting to have 7 steppers to move in sync and not independently. Would be ace if you can! Look forward to a response!

[Ilovemyoldguitar]

I learned gcodes for CNC programming many years ago, and some machine tool manufacturers would provide demo music, such as Mozarts 40th symphony, these steppers were much bigger, though.

[ThatBum42]

You can fix that buzzing problem by screwing those brackets into a large piece of resonant material, like a big chunk of wood as a backboard or something. It will make them louder in the process. To make them even louder, you can remove the washers between the brackets and the motors, but the motors might not take the extra vibration very well.

[scienceguy8]

You still have the code for this? I would like to see it if you don't mind.

[thetf97]

Awesome job!

[thetf97]

Awesome work!

[TheKackler]

Wow... Much fun!

[RedHoliman]

very nice



[270rahrah]

I'm trying to do this on the Arduino without any speakers and stepper motors

[270rahrah]

Would you happen to have a code for just the Arduino to play the song?

[gaolism]

cool !!! i have a arduino mega 2560 and a DC-Motor, can you send the arduino code to me? lei63816053@live.cn

[speewave]

i must do this with my propeller chip :P

[dumle29]

use the midi shield on the arduino and make it midi controlled :D

[Bluerooster100]

That is so cool!!!

[r3kr]

Oo

~~

[1or2Players]

OMG THATS AMAZING :D

[sharepix]

I love how each motor has its own sound

[lostinmusic89]

I love this! keep playing it over and over... great job!

[eagle16k9]

Awesome! Can i use every stepper motor and where can I find the code?

[BubbleOneOne]

LOL

[haxorseidis]

This is awesome !

[estlib]

you shouldve dishuised the motors as castles and the yellow thingies as flags

[compu2004]

could you please grant access to the code?

[metro2002]

Great stuff.

[TheDamnSpot]

2:38 of my life that was WORTH IT!

[fujitsulifebooke342]

What happens if you wire up a motor to a speaker amp?

[TailsX97]

make green hill zone theme : )

[Hogaboga101]

The star theme makes me feel so powerfull! o.O

[sworteu]

put some mirrors on the motors, then aim a laser to it, you would have a cool music disco and sound !!

[MusicGaming1]

19 people dosent understand that motors can play music

[LupusNoctu]

Total geek moment there! Lol. Nice work. :)

[RJacobs8907]

You sir just made my day lol

[fleanine]

thanks for posting this! quality stuff. made me smile. nice work!

[TheCheky]

que coño es esto??

[FrancoDucati]

MITO!!!!!

ma come caxxo hai fatto?

sei un grande

[cipriuss]

Do you have a gcode to be used with a cnc controller please? I have a Gcode with the Mario theme, but its not sound that good.I also have Tetris song. If anyone wants them, email me cipriuss@yahoo.com

[cmhiekses]

@cipriuss There is no Gcode associated with this project. Please read the video description. This music is being made using an Arduino microcontroller. If the arduino code is what you're after, then I will gladly send it along. But I don't have any Gcode to send you.

[axel1973w]

How many Pins does one of your steppermotors have? just can see two wires yet. but that may not be possible i guess.

[magopo84]

cool!! can i get the code?

[jpap967]

I'm an electrical engineer but I'm also a musician, and I must say, very nice arrangements you put together!

[chillieluvr45]

I can't even imagine how long this might've taken lol. Then again, if you're doing things like this for funsies, you're probably very good at it. Kudos!

[daveyjay85]

How you do this, I don't know. Why you do this, I don't know. Do I love it? Totally! First class work, dude!

[cmhiekses]

@daveyjay85 Glad you liked it. :)

[CLAUDIOPEIXOTO]

Did you can share us G Code and settings?

[optikn3rv]

OMG!!!!!!!!! this is so fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!! SO MUCH WIN I CAN ALMOST DIE!

*seizure*

great job! and hope u get ur PhD!!! fuck the Nagraath dude lol

[awesomemouse]

YOU LAUGH YOU LOSE

[jadescarab83]

Meh on the naysayers, and whatnot. You're bloody brilliant for figuring all this out. I envy you.

[T86157]

Where did you buy the NEMA motor for? I'm looking for a NEMA 23 or one that's bipolar. I'm trying to make it so it's modular with k'nex pieces so I don't have to damage my pieces to mount the motor

[leovailati]

I want one of these on my wedding

[Oddball941]

THIS IS SO FUCKING AWSOME!!!!!

[kwekkie]

this is SO COOOL!

[Bender1729]

Just awesome! :D

[serenieepoo]

I swear I could listen to this all day <3 and I feel your pain... my thesis has pretty much taken over my life.... nothing like coming up with new knowledge... T-T

[rramkhal]

This is outstanding!

[LSLencrypted]

Amazing work! And incredible sound too, especially given it being motors playing.

[lkb94]

wtf is it? LOL

[tempestxpr]

pokemoon

[HeroHouka]

Impressive amount of talent you have sir! I salute you!

[AllanJHolm]

You should record this with a good mic in an acoustically insulated room and sell the mp3. I would buy it.

[comicshaun07]

If Mario is involved , its always a win. 1:12

[theuberninja262]

what song starts at about 1:36?

[LSLencrypted]

@theuberninja262 The underwater theme

[theuberninja262]

@LSLencrypted thanks!

[Onoras]

Epic Win!

[baronvonbrunker]

Leave It To An Arduino To Do Something This Awesome.

[DigiRena]

AWESOME, I LOVE YOU!

[mastershakeaq]

@DigiRena little far for just that

[Selectedmarksman]

Now if only the motors could be drawing an etch-a-sketch style mario image at the same time. Might as well put that work to good use!

[AZNFlipy12]

i jizzed...

[urutoramank]

how do you change the sound of the motor? by changing its frequency?

[terraleau]

EPIC WIN. Dude. This is the best thing I have ever seen. I have Favorited this and rated, because it is an EPIC WIN!! NICE JOB!!

[tabortollefson]

I have a small CNC mill and I've always wanted to try something like this but using CNC G code run through the CNC controller. After a little trial and error it would be a simple task to determine what feed rates make what tones and just program it like any other manual CNC program. It would be a lot of work but it might be fun to try. Great video!

[candylover101011]

OH SHIT.

this pwnz.

[lbgundead]

little things like this in the world make my life happier

[proffesorcat]

how does that even work?

[MASTURCHEEF001]

@proffesorcat different RPMS. they are very loud motors.

[modustheoperandi]

This is awesome. You are awesome.

Sounds like my old Drucker xD Stepper Motors

[RoyHess666]

this is so awesome 10/10

didnt even knew the sound is that good using stepper motors..

I have seen hard drives being abused as loud speakers :D

[Evi1M4chine]

Wow, sounds really good! I’d love to have a synth preset or sampler instrument of this! :D

[ZILOGz80VIDEOS]

i like it best at 0:07

[smeezekitty]

Although it is better to create something on your own, you are kind of an idiot as far as not just giving out the code.

it plays a song not launches a missile geez!

[DanNixon2007]

Sweeet

[legofans452]

It'd be kinda cool if the NES actually had these inside of it to make audio.

[matthewrobinsonsz]

@legofans452 i modded a nes to do that i play loads of games its half 8-bit sound

[LauxHawk]

FUCK ME

[ScarredToons]

2:03 fucking epic

[bayblade404]

cool!



[guitarmad89]

get a life! no seriously this awesome. keep it going

[Mr27ace27]

do they each have their own note or do they all play different notes?

[refikornel]

@Mr27ace27 you cant play this song with only 3 notes :)

[Mr27ace27]

@refikornel I knew that ;)

[CiliophoraEuplotes]

It's like they're alive...

[ueberRegenbogen]

You should mic it in stereo. :D

Freakin awesome!

[DanielTempleUK]

WOW! That's fucking epic mate. Huge Effort!

Especially when they start doing different parts.

Great Work
