The Vibratron tries to play one of the most intense pieces of piano music ever composed. Unfortunately, despite recirculation (at a rate of about 5 balls per second) all 6,000 balls were exhausted before the song was finished.

  • What are you trying to do, blow it up?

  • @Ttoom The re-circulation mechanism isn't acoustically shielded and thus generates a lot of audible scraping/rattling feedback. The solenoid clicking is comparatively quiet, and hidden by the sound of the balls, but still another source of non melodic noise.

  • Well, whoa.Nice design, almost looks like the DaVinci tank.

  • prepare 15000 balls.... or even more

  • This looks beautiful, but the melody can barely be heard over the ambient noise! Is the source of the (fan?) noise in the machine, or is it something else that was operating nearby? Congratulations, from an engineering perspective, but not from an aural one.
