Marble Machine X is like the Binky of the music world.

Timo Kreuzer 16 dager siden

The overrotation doesn't help with reducing the force, it only increases the marbles' moment of inertia, which causes it to accelerate more slowly. Friction also doesn't help, because there is no friction, when nothing is moving. What helps is that the marble path is winding, which diverts parts of the force towards the walls, rather than in the direction of the path.

Martin is an inspiration to all. Not just engineers of different disciplines, but all people. Dedication, kindness, heart, soul, you’re the man!

Raphaël Pyrat Måned siden

That over rotation trick won't help with the pressure. You are using a dynamic phenomenon to counter a static phenomenon. And if my rigid body dynamics classes have taught me one thing, that doesn't work ^^ I believe the increase in performance that was observed anyway came from two other factors that you changed between Prototype 2 and 3 ( you changed more than one parameter, you mad scientist! ): - the increased smoothness comes from the paths having a lower curvature (wider turns) - the decreased static pressure comes from the tracks having much more drastic changes in direction (I mean sections that are very far from vertical, compared to all of them being rather close to vertical on P1 and P2) So in 4 words, wider and longer turns. These are mere hypothesis of course, and would require further testing. Hope this helps, Regards

Raphaël Pyrat Måned siden

2:12 And it feels like a no brainer for me to spam that pay what you want option! Thank you so much for putting all this content out there! It has phenomenal value to me

Axe Blaze Måned siden

Lol my brain can’t even comprehend step one🤣

Eric Cheng Måned siden

As he achieved more complex and beautiful machine, he gain more weight

Johann D Måned siden

Wow, math is so hard I'll be a musician instead! the math that musicians do:

Benjamin Lovato Måned siden

So multi talented. We need more creators like this.

Jeremey Måned siden

You should level the table the Wilson dropped all the marbles on.

Pierre Cochet Måned siden

As the speed of the marble is getting slowed, did you test it at low tempo, when tubes are empty ? May be this situation will never occur... Just wondering

Ted South Måned siden

I have always wondered what an artificer / bard multiclass would look like. Apparently Martin is a perfect example.

Solesteam Måned siden

Wow even test tubes!?! wait everything you've been working with is a solid though...

Satoshi Måned siden

Wait. I actually wonder. How many marbles do you have in MMX?

nikolasbbq Måned siden

Home Depot must love this guy.

Alan Dike Måned siden

So the marbles all spin at the same speed, but with their different effective diameters, they cover more distance per rotation, due to the smaller effective diameter..

Me: has video playing in the background Martin: "... free ..." Me: "FREE?"

1980’VINZ Måned siden

By the way, you should AVOID TO USE THIS IKEA SCALE, I have one since years and it is really not handy especially for doing this kind of precise measures. When you had 1-3 grams, the weight doesn’t move and you have to press it then release for let it give you the correct weight. I use it 2 times by day since 15 years to give the right food quantity to my cat. PS: 15 years...tf it’s good for this kind of cheap device so I’m confused now.....🤷‍♂️

1980’VINZ Måned siden

I’m French and feel shameful for this shitty plied wood... I would like to know from who this was to avoid them in future...

Josue Mejia Måned siden

Amazing, it's like programing in real life

vbddfy euuyt Måned siden

This channel has turned from a 'normal cool' into an 'incredible cool'. Amazing work dude!

Randy Hines Måned siden

I want to make something like this but completely different route.

javasoccernut Måned siden

Statistics. Make the numbers say what you want lol

javasoccernut Måned siden

But really what you did was the right thing looking at the bigger picture which is the opposite of what most people do with statistics

kniefi Måned siden

Holy moly! This in itself is a science! To see you go to such great lenghts just to make sure your music Instrument is playing with less errors is astounding and shows your pure dedication! The level of detail EVERY STEP in this machine has and tje process behind it by trial and error and also by comparing different types of solutions and creating prototypes is phenomenal! Keep up the awesome work!

bocoy noiu Måned siden

Wow! Wowowowowow! that moment when .. 7:26 why the marbles go at different speeds!! Such an eye opener! So much brilliance!

Paŭlo Ebermann Måned siden

15:40 after Wilson emptied the valve, how many marbles were left in it? You need to subtract this from the 70, because that's not part of your stockpile of marbles you can use when no others arrive from the top (e.g. because some other instrument steals them all).

bocoy noiu Måned siden

was really AAAAAHhhh lol after all the work

Paŭlo Ebermann Måned siden

Even if you've wrote your license yourself, you've hopefully had a lawyer read it to make sure it actually does what you intend?

Me: has video playing in the background Martin: "... free ..." Me: "FREE?"

Jason Måned siden

Can you really count the marbles that failed do to the temporary tape failing as an actual failure of the machine? You shouldn't be counting that against the reliability of the machine.

diggerop Måned siden

When you can get the machine to faithfully re-create the work of "Double Trouble" in SRV's "Riviera Paradise," I will be truly impressed (I don't ask for much, do I?). I won't ask for it to re-create the work of Stevie Ray himself. Impossible, and to try borders on sacrilege, even if imitation is the highest form of flattery. I'm kidding, of course ... Good of you to allow sharing of your music. And anything that shames the Never-Napsters, I'm for.

Rich St Aubin Måned siden

Dose anyone want a WILLSON ornament for christmas? I do.

SmokyBros Måned siden

Why do you call it a decimal point, when you are using a decimal comma?

the delaminating plywood gave me the giggles...it a rule! the good product hardly leaves the country. as for Europe. want good French wine? go to France. want good scotch go to scotland... want good plywood go to Sweden.

The days drag by, and here I am watching this again to get my Martin and MMX fix. I hope the length of time between videos means A) Martin in getting some rest and B) he's just being so productive he has no time to edit videos.

derHinek Måned siden

Somehow this conveyor belt nopost.info/throw/s72nm4Pe2naKm6s/video reminds me of the old Marble Machines programming wheel ;-)

Village People Måned siden

You're so amazing bro, I'm so happy to watching yoir channel. And i yours new subscriber

artgoat Måned siden

The machine sure has gotten quieter since the proof of concept video in 2019!

Peter Ferguson Måned siden

And according to this video would have taken about 20 minutes to make those marbles: nopost.info/throw/lp_FqI6yyJ6ImZI/video

You are genius

Just Some Guy Who Slays Goblins Måned siden

How havey is this machine?

James Healey Måned siden

Free licence ??? Thats an amazing gift , thankyou

Maddison Krauss Måned siden

I’ll be using your music and sharing it with every content creator I meet!!

Scarven Måned siden

Have you lost your marbles?!

championchap Måned siden

Damn, that’s some really good progress. I’m confident have this thing working for an extended period with 0 failures across all components sooner or later. Those tracks you machined with the little windows are beautiful indeed.

rene villalon Måned siden

when is mmx marble machine song?

Joep van der Ven Måned siden

For all the dutchies that see this, can we push the marble machine into the top2000?

tiger kat! Måned siden

Pc-professional- X753 Måned siden

Love this guy

Drew supplee Måned siden

The amount of engineering he puts into the machine is staggering

Klauz Wayne Måned siden

Also those runner wheels on the belts will not remove resonating but instead shift it into a higher frequenzy. Although that may be enough to solve your problem.

Klauz Wayne Måned siden

I'm a little worried about your new wooden parts. Since they basically absorb all the weight and impulse, they may wear down quite fast. Since wear on these parts will directly affect the height of the marble chain inside, you should keep a close eye on that.

ShimdisBack Måned siden

Hi Wintergatan, thanks for all your videos, hope the project is going well. To solve the issue with the belts I think you can simply pierce some holes in it to stop the belts entering in resonance. If there is tiny holes all across the belt, the vibration will not be able to run across it. Hope it can help you. Have a great day, full blessings

nieooj gotoy Måned siden

I feel so at home when I watch your videos, it's like the feeling one gets when watching or reading Winnie the Pooh

Tangent of circle. Måned siden

You mad lad, you actually did it

Sensansenkai Måned siden

It is SO SO exciting to see where Marble Machine X is- I hadn’t checked in on your progress for awhile and it’s very cool. I can’t wait to hear it playing music :)

Sev Sevi Måned siden

This guy's a genius. If I've never been interested on listening to my math teacher, this guy's an exception. I'm actually learning here.

nieooj gotoy Måned siden

Two thoughts that I had while watching this asside from that it is awesome is that 1. Having labeling or some index on the programing wheel sheets so that you dont have to

Jason Dragon Måned siden

Thanks for free music. I think your math is off. It has bothered me the last few videos, I think it is your formula in excel. 20000 with 61 fails is 19939 success. 19939/20000 is 99.695%

We are witnessing a pioneer. Thank for all the hard works and great videos!!

Gravy Måned siden

This is awesome I love the $0 + pay what you want, this should become standard.

Pablo D'Ambrosio Måned siden

The rotation thing was incredible, only that was recompense enough. But those weight traps to reduce the marvels pressure... and the marvel modules, it's just so great.

noémie maurice Måned siden

I've just discovered you and damn dude that's so sexy! Edit : me, a french person reaching any point in any video where someone talks about my country : Oh no they hate me! (Jk I know ya don't XD unless...)

18:40 Nice sync, editor(s). I love those kind of little details :)

DutchBlackMantha Måned siden

The over-rotation effect slows down the marble because it needs to rotate faster to cover the same amount of track, so a larger percentage of the kinetic energy goes into rotational movement, and less in linear movement. But that only matters during movement, not in the static pressure.

Captain Caveman Måned siden

Exactly. The marble is rolling on a smaller part of itself so it needs more rotations to travel the same amount. It's like when turning something on a lathe. You have to spin the part faster when cutting smaller diameters and slower on larger diameters to achieve the correct surface footage per minute.

Tobias H Måned siden

I imagine this is how it feels to make the first piano all those years ago in Europe. The piano prides itself in being able to reciprocate the wide range of octaves and keys that only a orchestra can provide. Hence it is a great solo instrument. With the bass, drums, and everything you're doing, that's exactly it.

Ponlets Måned siden

is your Detektivbyrån stuff also on there :)

Bret Z Måned siden

More friction = more speed on the marble track diameter thing

Valentin Danev Måned siden

but why?

Julian Sivertsen Måned siden

The reliability score is incorrect 20000 marbles tested with 19939 successful gives a reliability of 19939/20000 = 0.99695 on a scale from 0 to 1. To convert to percent you multiply this by 100 and get 99.695%, but note that spreadsheets do this step for you when you format the number as percent.

Two thoughts that I had while watching this asside from that it is awesome is that 1. Having labeling or some index on the programing wheel sheets so that you dont have to count spaces between pins could be helpful. 2. I don't know that you would use it for a song but you didnt specifically test releasing 2 marbles simultaniously to see if that causes a failure, I view that more as a test in case the progam wheel incorectly programed. Awesome work, please keep it up.
