PVC instrument

If you would like the spreadsheet that I used to get the lengths needed for each note, here is the file:

This is just me messing around on the pipes. Play these on good quality speakers, they really do sound good.
If you want info on how to make something like this or just the paddles, read the comments. I have already explained.

@jacobscorpio588 Thank you, I know it's the popular the new kid around the block that gets all the attention and no one else, now how typical is this? That other person makes it all sound like HE invented it all... this is what bugs me, and I'm not a DUDE!! I have the right to say it, NOT? Guess what, he blocked me because I said it... WOW!! American democracy ???

Do you still have it or have you scrapped it after the presentation?

Turned up subwoofer and got more of the low end. Nice sound!

Thanks for sharing.

Nice job ..... wow.

We are searching for self build PVC Instrument photo's (and video's ofcourse).

We place them on our Blue Man group fans facebook page ..... there is an event page for this; search for "PVC Instruments, sent in your photo's !" on facebook and you will find it.

Can you help us gather as many PVC instruments as possible?

Greetz, Hans and Marco.

Sounds very cool. You should train someone else and perform together and actually do a tune.

How Did you get the tuning right with the lengths of the tubes???

[Panthur6502]

Not much point using good quality speakers, its 240p. Upload at a better bit rate please :-)

How thick are those pipes??

[julieannaClark]

That sounds like something I heard on BSG...

[MrKillernuker]

...how? 

[MinoTauren]

@Quinnyboyz No man, the diameter plays a factor in the formula that is used to calculate the tubing length
