It's probably to represent the evolution of such technology considering that Marble Machine Proto was built like almost a decade.

@@junkyyard2273 Maybe. I don't know. I have to admit I preferred the old look though. I've never been a fan of the steampunk style anyways.

Kind of like the TARDIS

It’s the dark mode version

reminds me of a time machine 😊

same here!

I discovered Marble Machine five days ago and I'm addicted to this piece of music...

@@BlueSparkle i looped the track on spotify yesterday and haven't stopped it at all

Looks like you found a new hobby then

@@RuneAutomaton lol

That's the Wilson fan club! :D

yea it does

Xavier Benbow yes，you are right

Yeah

Yeah

at least we have some edits of partial songs done with the mmx throughout the years somewhere in youtube

why, what happened?

@@Yvory6 oh man... it's a long story, that has been documented in over a hundred videos... but the short version is: The Marble Mashine X didn't end up meeting Martin's "standards", and he decided to ditch the whole project. It looked great, it sounded great, but it wasn't reliable enough to be taken on a stage, so Martin decided to end the project, and MAYBE build a 3rd mashine - but only once he solves all the issues that happened to this one. Also his dad got sick, he had to move out from the French home he bought... basically the MMX story didn't get a happy ending at all. It was a failure - one that taught us a lot of things, but a failure in the end - at least according to Martin. I still wish he'd just make a few songs for video on the MMX though. Like it was nearly finished, it did work good enough to be fine with some video editing. I think he was so disappointed in himself (and probably the father-health thing god too big) that he just gave up on it.

@@kalkovonschpritzendorf1914 One marble machine is too Cold. This Marble Machine is too Hot. Lets hope the next one will be Just Right.

@@Red_MOON187 Cheers to the "Just Right" MM3. Well said.

He's gonna go on a tour with this once it's finished.

@@SapphFire But it won't be the one we see in development now. From the videos and comments I've seen... There is an MMX #2 planned for the tour. Almost a copy but with refined parts.

@@tigerzero5216 Oh interesting. Didn't know about that.

@@SapphFirenah, neither one is actually real. It’s all AI generated

Probably not

No, it's actually an outtake from Charlie & The Chocolate Factory (Willy Wonka).

You're thinking of Kraft Dinner.

Makes me think of the Antikythera mechanism

If it gets dug up, itll get classified as a machine to communicate with the gods.

😏

I actually have this problem to a noticeable degree, I played a really crappy trombone for three and a half-ish years and I freaking loved it. The slide had been dented by the previous owner, so there was a lot of friction. I gave it up a little while ago and switched to a Yamaha, so hopefully it’ll start to go away.

And then when you get too lazy, you have treadle pedal :)

"instrument"

matt it really is beautiful isn’t it. Stay strong :)

I love them oat recent test 10000 marbles and no losses

I'm from the future... I don't want to tell you what's coming.

@@NeonNijahn rip, brother. Idk what went through his head, but we can always hope for the best

Wait, I’m confused. Was this music from the machine?

@@JaydenLawson its just the grum on the marble machine the rest of the music is added just as the comment said. Still very very impressive though!

Marble Machine's dropping the beat today!

It’s a long way to goo...

Almost done...

Nah, I'd rather the first time we hear that song be when all the instruments are actually installed and working.

Dude, the machine is still a ways off. Right now, he's working the vibes and hasn't revealed the progress on the base guitar. The original Marble Machine song was on a finished machine. Sure it was a piece of shit that fell apart, but all of the musical pieces worked long enough to record on.

@@Beakerbite I think he hasn't even started the bass part yet

Omg ikr! But wait until he finishes the vibraphone.

He said this week that he was going to redo the regional marvel machine soundtrack on the marble machine X

lobstrosity pat-a-pon God may bless and protect you! This comment killed me haha

lol

Martins channel concept: 1.576.800 Minute Crafts

More like "Karen builds a DYI hair dryer out of a soda bottle, a drill, and a bunch of lit candles 2 inches away from your hair"

"Thinking quickly, Dave constructs a home made megaphone using only some string, a squirrel and a megaphone."

why, what happened?

@@Yvory6 Marten abandoned the project in favor of starting a whole new machine from scratch, as much of the design of MMX was inherently flawed when it came to the ultimate goal of repeatable, tight live music with minimal errors (which could range from a missed note to onstage hazards to machine damage) due to it being designed first as a Visual piece of art as much as a functional one

Check out musikkabinett!! They’ve gotten ahold of it and they’re finishing it as Martin envisioned it (but with slightly more angle grinder involved)

No yet kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rcWJlLiCr6e1g4k.html

I agree!

You should tbh

this comment didn't age well.

People still checking this vid out I see xD

Well, let's hope the next 10000 marble tests yields the results we need

뭐라는거야

D'oh!

2 years later.. Wintergatan: *slaps top of machine* Machine: *breaks down* Wintergatan: *surprised Pikachu face*

@@junkyyard2273 wintergatan: slaps machine This baby can fit so many angle grinders

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qd6merCAvtqRlZc.html

it creates loops, not full songs

Why not?

@@miafillene4396 MARBLE MACHIME 3 BABYYYY

one's for beat and the other is for the marble machine to make sure the sound is captured from the mic

Because he has 2 ears. One headphone for each ear. Duh

Why?

Yeah he always wears 2 headphones since the first video. I noticed that the first time I watched Wintergatan

hes working on that now!

pretty sure those are ear protection.

Pretty shure his name is Martin haha

@@takeashower3630 Pretty sure I'm stupid

The white ones aren't headphones.

@@sideoutside Did I fzcking stutter? XD

What happened to him? I only just got into him so idk really much. But I do know he NEEDS to be on the same level as Beethoven in regards to ingenuity even if it's in different ways.

@@wynterpulchritudo7255 He said he found an unsolvable design flaw that prevented him from completing it. He went back to the drawing board. Now he plans to design the new one completely in CAD first, then outsource construction to others (if I understood him correctly).

Glory is FOREVER!

Makes me genuinely frustrated whenever I think about it. Even if it wouldn't have been usable in concerts on his planned tour, he could have still uploaded a video of it playing music. His desire for perfection is destroying him and perhaps even his channel.

I think the pair around his neck are probably ear protection for using power tools. Angle grinders are noisy and he likes to use them a lot.

You comment almost made me think i jst found out but i remember i found that out last year HAHAHA

I also didn’t know haha

He has excess marbles running in a continuous loop in the divider track. He won't run out as long as there are no skips. This can be mitigated later by alternating both channels.

The conveyor belt lift also isn't running anywhere near capacity, as marbles are dropped more will constantly be lifted back up. Martin has done the math, he constantly mentions the rate at which marbles need to be lifted back up.

The total supply of marbles is lower than it could be, almost none are going through the recycler. Martin has definitely considered the rates of marble supply.

@Minecraft Platinum Fireworks Inc. Per beat iirc. Remember the machine spins faster or slower depending on tempo. But yeah its 8 per/something, as thats the amount per car on the lift. If it is per beat that means he can drop 8 marbles per beat. That's enough to drop one on a bass string, two on drums, four on the vibraphone and one offbeat, every beat.
