And raw material price is also increasing in China. Like that actually happened in the last two months. Was wondering why that happened.

My favorite line, “ I’ve made a piano that can never be tuned, I am an engineer” ……… Hysterical!
I looked before I said it🤣
I am new to his channel and it's not like some comedy channel. This one actually had a very sad part. I am not sure if it's his raw emotion or what, but I laugh more, or literally laugh, on a single video more than any other on YT.
“I tried built a piano that can never go out of tune!”

Me, a pianist to myself: "don't be that guy! Don't be that guy!"
@@chrispham6599 lmao
My vintage electric piano has a tuning knob because it goes out of tune a little bit after some time.
They can go out of tune as well... nothing on this earth lasts forever.
I wonder how the oscilator stability is on those?
So this project was actually terrible. Like I don’t regret it. But damn, I cut out sooo much of the actual problems on this video. I’m either just extremely stupid or I had really bad luck with this project 😳
You are amazing.
Everyone get this guy to a million subs
It's the second one, you are an amazing engineer, hope the next video will be easier and more light work for you
(Though I do know there's the other guitar string video)
(I'm an engineer)
It's what you do Mattias! That is what we are here for!
Even though you didn't like the project, I made me so happy to see you kept going even if things weren't working. This deserve a sub and discord join
How it started: "I'm going to build a piano that can never go out of tune!"
How it ended: "I built a piano that can't ever be in tune again!"
But it's the next thing he says that really got me. "I'm an engineer."
You would in fact be able to retune it by heating it up. But I'm not actually sure whether that would be a great idea
Lol

"It's kinda like the Piano is screaming in pain."
Yeah, just like the entire process of making it.
Mattias: spends over $2000 USD dollars on a tuning fork piano
Also Mattias: can't afford a tuning app without ads
Of course he can't, he spent all of his money on tuning forks lmao/
That's when the app defaults to the downloaded ads it comes with.
"2000 dollars US dollars dollars"... I think you overdid it a bit there lol
And also the audio jingle copyright ahahaha
Love the fact, he doesnt care about this
I just hack the ads off all my apps
Mattias Krantz: "It's called a dulcitone. I still can't believe that thing _actually_ already exists…."
Also Mattias Krantz: _literally creates a variant dulcimer_
Lol
What’s a variant dulcimer? I can’t find it on Google.
@@ferretyluv he means a different time of dulcitone
im not into pianos or music... but the absurd level of willpower placed into this project deserves a subscription
He probably has a lot of followers who only follow him because they're into engineering.
Not.. into.. music? But I am Lorde 😢
I'm not saying you're wrong for not listening to artists (me most importantly) but I didn't care for music when I suffered from depression; so you might enjoy music after some therapy! Unless you're built different, genetically speaking. Autistic.
"What's wrong with Mattias?"
"I don't know, he's just been in that rocking chair cradling a tuning fork and mumbling to himself for days now"
Yeah, I was honestly a little meh on this whole project, and actually wasn't going to give it a like... until I got to about 27:38, and then the self-trolling factor just kinda made me laugh so much, I had to give a like to counter my guilt over the Schadenfreude. :D
I want to see a whole video series of Matthias independently inventing things which have already existed for hundreds of years.
Hahaha
Lmfao
Nice name
I might do one of all of his pain in one video.
@@Mattiaskrantz You're still replying??
I was wondering how a Dulcitone is made so that the tuning forks don't wear down and go out of tune there... Apparently the hammers are covered with felt.
Maybe you need felt strings ;)
Okay I'm not done with the video yet but I'm at 23:15 and following you through this hellish process and seeing how many times something went wrong but instead of just give up on the project or break it even (which is where I probably would have been tbh). Seeing you take care of the pieces even when you had to take them all back off again which was probably one of the hardest things I've watched but it was so impressive, seriously. You've got grit, dedication, and a mental strength that is pretty remarkable. So, thank you for sticking with the project and posting about it because this made my night and gave me a deeper perspective on some things in life. Thanks man, cheers!
That's what impresses me the most about him. Inspires me to persevere through frustrations.
“He asked me if I wanted to jump into the van because he had a surprise waiting for me inside”
_And that's how to kidnap a pianist_
you give me the candy, THEN i get in the van. i know how this works.
I’m not the only one then?
you forgot he is from sweden
And then I had to go meet another dude in his basement...lol
I like how he has a piano "dealer" like he's involved in some sort of piano crime ring
Who says he isn't? A lot of his videos are crimes against pianos and I love it.
He isn't involved in some sort of piano crime ring, he just plays the piano one time and then snorts it
@@flibflob2785 that would expain why he needs and has so many pianos
well he has a white van thats a good start
Most expensive products are sold by dealers of some sort, because manufacturers don't usually go direct to consumer, and a lot of the time they don't like to go through big-box stores because that's not profitable. Think of cars, motorcycles and bikes. You'd go to a Yamaha motorcycle dealer for a Yamaha motorcycle. Likewise, you'd go to a Yamaha piano dealer for a Yamaha piano.
Dealer is basically a fancy word for a retailer that sells only one type of product.
25:25 the song is River Flows In You by Yiruma. Took me a while to find (Shazam struggled with the tuning forks lol) but hopefully anyone looking sees this

He wasn’t lying when he said, “I’m and engineer”
That last sentence was GOOD!
Lol I wish I could like this comment more than once
hi Mattias, you could actually retune your piano by adding a tuning fork to the end and retune all the tuning forks to the next available note below if it goes higher with wear, so each one would move up or down one note depending if it goes higher or lower with wear, you just grind the rest of the worn keys down a tone/semitone a lot of work but you don't seem shy of hard work and you have a lot of patience so good job and well done.
The sound of filing a running fork is like the opposite of ASMR-inducing.
Some kind of evil anti ASMR.
actually it _IS_ ASMR inducing... Just one that you don't have a pleasant association with, yet it's the same physiological response =)) Most people don't realize that the reaction on someone screeching their nails on a slate is also ASMR ^^
The amount of effort that went into this is insane
I felt it😅
I subscribed only for this reason.. I know nothing about pianos.
@@Mattiaskrantz Not sure if these videos are that good for your mental health tbh.

Mattias: I will make a piano that can NEVER go out of tune!
Also Mattias: *makes a piano that will always gradually detune... forever*
"I'm an engineer!"
@Hooman Being Nah, just wear on the metal.
The strings will also not resonate at the forks frequency, but instead at the string’s own resonance frequency, so if the strings loosen the frequency will drop and retune itself right after the note is played.
Solution:
1. Invent piano playing robot.
2. Have said robot play songs with a note distribution that ensures the forks all detune the same (got to have much more bass notes, as they take more wear to detune one whole tone compared to the high pitch ones).
3. Gradually move the piano closer to a black hole, using time dilation to compensate the increase in resonance frequency.
From our point of view the pitch forks will then still appear to be in tune, problem solved.
just take out the strings and replace with something hard that absorbs sound, maybe? plexiglass? that way the forks still strike a surface hard enough to resonate, but the sound created by the object struck can be mitigated?
i like the moment (27:27) when he realized that the forks would wear from the strikes over time and cause the weight to change. “I made the only piano that once it goes out of tune it can never go back in tune. I’m an engineer!”
Makes it sound a lot brighter than a normal piano
"Not a single one of them was in the middle as I wanted."

First time viewing this channel. And I have never in my 52 years seen such a brilliant dum dum.
So strange though. I have perfect pitch and can tune instruments (stringed) by ear. But I cannot play (very well) nor can I read music. This fellow apparently cannot tune his instrument without a tuner (damned phone) but can play extremely well. This young man is gifted. Intelligent and talented yet humble.
Dude, use your talent and be a piano tuner.
@@ferretyluv Thank you for saying that. But I'm already in my later years and almost finished with the career that I chose decades ago.
What I wanted to do when I was young was automobile paint and body work. As well as being a mechanic. The idea was to restore old cars that had been discarded, abandoned or just written off as junk.
And I do possess those talents as well. It just wasn't the path that I went down... Or was led to.
Since those who aren't fortunate enough to have been born to wealthy parents so not always have a choice as to what their careers will be.
Anyways, yea I'll be retiring in the next 5-7 years.
And I've been squiring tools and equipment to outfit my garage in order to restore a few cars.
As a hobby, but most of all, for MY SANITY. Since I've been restoring cars in my mind as I drive this truck over and over and over again for 3 decades. I'm going to have to do at least 3 before the long, black train pulls into the station and the bell tolls for me.
I've no children so.... The cars I do will be the only legacy that I leave.
You didn't ask for that long explanation but your comment seemed sincere, so..... There's that.
@@lilmike2710 That’s okay, I like hearing stories. Even those of us fortunate to be born to well-off (not necessarily wealthy) parents don’t always have a say in our futures either.
Im sure your perfect pitch comes in handy when a car makes a funny noise and you can tell right off the bat what’s wrong with it.
@@ferretyluv YES!!!! You're exactly right 👍 I certainly can, and do quite often. My friends cars will be on the fritz and I've heard the various noises coming from under their hoods, then informed them of their issue(s). Then after they've seen a mechanic and that exact thing turned out to be the case, 🤣 they accuse me of being some sort of brilliant mechanic wizard 😆.
No, I just A. understand engines, and B. have a good ear... Nothing "brilliant" about it. 😊
Stay humble my friend..
@@lilmike2710 I was going to say that pitch discrimination also comes in handy for changing gearbox speeds without synchromesh. As a crude example, I have a Swedish milling machine with a two speed motor (2 poles vs 4 poles, 2900 rpm vs 1450) and most people cannot change speeds on the fly, but it's quite straightforward to change down if you realise you can switch off the top speed, let it coast down an octave, then switch to low speed. Works in any gear, in this case...
Even for vehicle gearboxes, where the ratio gaps are all different, it's not necessary to have absolute pitch, it might even be a hindrance (because it relies on a fixed datum in long term memory, where an engine speed is infinitely variable). Relative pitch is what's needed (which is almost universal among accomplished musicians). I'm pretty sure almost everyone can judge an octave, though!
Legend has it, that tuning fork manufacturer is still waiting for him to buy their next set for $150
Lmaoo
Yeah, they probably opened new factory to keep up with demand and now they are figuring out what happened :D

"I just used math to solve a problem in real life"
Mattias, you are the question in a math book that will never apply to real life.
"Mattias is replacing the hammers on a piano with tuning forks. Work out what angle they need to be"
Depends on the position and key of the fork in the piano, teacher.
Hahaha I never thought angles would play such an important role in my life🤣
@@Mattiaskrantz they were playing a piano, not a roll (unless you are planning 'I put rollers on my piano' 😉).
sorry
Matthias is our cousin, Throckmorton.
"Matthias just bought 3 boxes of tuning forks for $90 each. How many days does he have left before he starves in a room full of metal shavings?"
At this point the tuning fork seller must be looking at Mattias' order and just say to himself "Ah, yes, my favourite customer."
More laughing to themselves “this idiot doesn’t know about alibaba”
I figured the fork seller thought a reseller was buying him out, and jacked his prices to make whatever money they feared they were leaving on the table....or just $$ in the eyes greedy...
Your tenacity and problem solving skills are out of this world! So creative and it looks so pretty when you’re playing it!
This was one of the most informative and entertaining and funny videos I’ve ever had the pleasure of watching. Its truly remarkable your tenacity and patience. Perhaps the impatient parts were edited out, i don’t know. I love how you snubbed NASA to stay on point. I was looking for videos showing how tuning forks were made and stumbled onto yours. I’m so impressed. I’m 53 and have always wanted to play piano but have made zero effort in that direction. You, my friend, have inspired to me to pursue this dream. To be more specific, you have helped me to remember that I had this dream in the first place. I had long forgotten it. As a man searching for any inspiration I can find and finding very little, you might possibly have inspired me to change my life in a dramatic and lovely way. I wanted you to know this and I wanted to thank you as this is what I have been searching for as tears of hope and joy stream down my face. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Amazing job on the piano, and an even more amazing job on your perseverance. It is very clear to me how hard you worked on this and I'm glad to see you didn't give up. Results are nice, and sometimes it is the journey itself that is the biggest reward. I love your attitude. Well done. You have earned this subscribe.

"I used my exceptional bargaining skills and almost ended up increasing the price." That's so me 😂

"i have candy er i mean, pianos"
As an independent mechanic with my own shop, I've learned the hard way that doing everything one step at a time is more disastrous than doing all the steps on one side first before moving to the other side in case I find a short cut that'll save me time and resources on the other vs destroying everything or doing it all incorrectly. Fascinating fails my friend. Glad to see such motivation to succeed.

@@screechboi8699 That seller probably started bringing in containers from China and was left holding the bag :)
Let’s just say that this man just combined the music box sound and piano sound together and believe me that even though Matthias went through so much I think he has made the best one yet and I want a sample of the audio.
No jokes this piano should travel around the world for everyone to listen to
Your videos are unique bro. Dont lose hope when making them. The whole 30 mins watch is worth it. Watched all of it and loved it.
As a fellow crafter. I. Feel. You! Great job sticking to it.
Let me know some really terrible video ideas I’m not sure exactly what to do next
EDIT: Thank you for the ideas, I’ve been reading all of them and I think I have a strong list now
13:34 👀👀
Video idea: You should engineer a piano that plays the low notes on the right side and the high notes on the left side!
I saw this one of your CZcams comments so I'm going to say it again. Horse hair instead of piano strings
Can I make a suggestion? I think if you redid this but with applying rubber feet on the forks and then re-tuning them you would be able to hear the strike better and avoid the deterioration problem.
You could also run this where you replace the strings with the appropriate fork and is then struck by the hammer.
@@tajedi think those might already exist
Out of respect for this man, and the effort, time, and money that he put into this project, I watched this whole thing without skipping any of it. The outro, the ad break, everything.

Can we just appreciate the consistence Mattias has put into this, like if this was me I would have given up in the first 2 minutes of this video😭😂
I'd love to hear a song on this where the strings are tuned to different notes than the forks, effectively playing two notes with one key
A classic trick in synthesizers is to detune one oscillator a bit up, and the other one a bit down, to make a richer sound. Could work in real life too?
@@Jononor That's pretty much how piano strings already work because you can't tune them exactly down to the cent and keep them there.
Also, string ensembles employ the same 'trick' because the tuning of each of the instruments will vary.
Heard of a clavichord before?
Having the forks an octave higher or lower might sound interesting.
Playing multiple notes at ones is called a "chord" and is quite common.
I love the honesty he approaches these projects with, makes no bones about the fact he's kinda flying by the seat of his pants, and while definitely clever and creative, is obviously learning as he's going, and it's pretty cool to see the time and money being put into these projects.
Seeing the tuning fork company fearing being bought out by a reseller or just happy to cash in and jacking the price almost double (edit: raised by quadruple....and prob gonna keep rising....) is pretty sad/funny too.
25:30 worth it.
From 21:10 this part actually made me really sad. I nearly cried with you. So much time spent on something that wasn't worth it. I hope you took some positivity out of this issue and the fact you came back from it is incredible. You are such an inspiration Mattias and your determination is unbelievable. I've enjoyed all your builds so far so much! Keep up the amazing work, I look forward to more crazy and cool builds to come!
I really genuinely love this project. Love the content you make man, I appreciate the hard work you put in your videos
Food for thought: Don't think of it as "going out of tune," think of it as "developing character." It's a piano that, if you built 100 identical copies, each copy would, by design, sound unique and different to all the others after a sufficient amount of play time. That's something special, in and of itself, I think.
Someone, please, what song does he start playing at 25:25? I can't remember the name of it and it's been bugging me for days now
Yeah, I think most people don't realize that musical notes don't have an exact/correct frequency. As long as the notes are the right frequencies relative to each other, then a little bit of drift from the normal frequencies is okay.

You should sell any leftover holey tuning forks as merch. I totally want a random note tuning fork from your crazy experiments. Looking forward to seeing what poor piano tuner or pianist you get to play / work on the piano.
I think your original idea was *crazy* - but this video was so interesting to watch. I watched the entire thing in complete awe. I was worried that you might hurt yourself with the drilling equipment (and then not be able to play piano!). I have always thought about how amazing musical instruments are (even from the engineering aspect - let alone the talent it takes to be able to play them).
I was fascinated about how hard it was to take the simple idea, and by the time you do all the math and engineering in it, it was a *lot* more complicated then it first started out. I love that there were engineering problems, but you were able to overcome them after a little thought. (The cooling forks was a mistake that I could see making myself - who would have thought?)
I am so happy that your parents were able to help (and tell your mom she needs a haircut).
Most importantly, this is the awesomest and most personalized piano in the world - I hope you play it so much that it goes out of tune, but then you can show everyone this video and let them know how special of a project this was.
Thank you for making 30 minutes of my life better.

You should tune a piano, to play your favorite song by tuning all the keys in that order. So if your song have 55 keys, you should be able to hit the lowest note and work your way up, and the piano will play the song.

Yes Mattias, I call that
"Tinnitus type sound"
I certainly can hear it all the time
It’s the journey. Great work I’m with you no matter the out come. It’s the process that ids the key.
You truly are the embodiment of patience and endurance...even if the projects never turn out as expected, the amount of effort and work you do to push past the frustrations really do inspire a lot of us Mattias! :)
Thank you Nathan!!🤝🤝
so true
I can’t wait to see the flip side on CNBC now that the project is done: “Tuning fork demand collapses overnight, market analysts worry it may have been a bubble that could kick off the next recession”
lmao
The main reason for using the tuning fork is that, unlike many other types of resonators, it produces a very pure tone, with most of the vibrational energy at the fundamental frequency.
I'm not sure why YT put this on my front page, but I'm glad it did. This is straight up the most absurd project (and follow through) I have seen on CZcams.
Gives me plenty of Simone Gertz "crappy robot" vibes.
We will miss the piano tech guy. And to think that their friendship was finally flourishing...
Going by Mathias' past I would not be surprised if he ended up moving house again just to be near to the piano tech.
Yeah I mean I haven’t talked to him for a while but maybe he wanna drive here if I pay the drive. I’m not sure haven’t talked with him about it
Invite him for dinner
@@JPMeijers he has plenty of forks to use
@@Mattiaskrantz Reach out to give him a copy of the hammer clavier pack…he earned it. 😅
Dude you're insane, i can't imagine the amounts of oddly specific knowledge you've accumulated from doing this
You are AMAZING. This took you so many tries and so much money and with many errors and redoes you could’ve given up but you kept on going for us. THANK YOU
I started to cry because this is sounds trouth the movie like buttercream. also when it's not workling properly. i like you're movies I'll seen since today!
Seller then: "Prices must be raised, we'll be rich!"
Seller now: "Spare a coin for an ol' tunin' fork peddler?"
Funny thing is, you are probably right. Most likely it's a reseller who bought in bulk from Alibaba or similar distributers. I think they were trying out higher prices and supply since they all sold out so easy. If they are inexperienced and/or don't have some funds left, they would be stuck with a bunch of inventory they can't sell now Mattias' project is done.
Edit: Got curious and found the seller. They still have 100 fork sets in stock for around 70$. The set costs 22$ on Alibaba (for bigger orders). The seller also has a lot of different stuff (made in China) available.

What's with all these "sexy" bots copy pasting other top comments?
I'm simultaneously impressed and slightly concerned how convoluted this project is! I mean, buying tool after tool to solve drilling problems kinda made me sad for all the time and money. And single-handedly driving up the price of that tuning fork set, yikes! 😅 But honestly, I'm glad you documented this journey. Experiments with unkown outcomes are always interesting!
What I learned from this video, is that money allows you to do whatever the fuck you want no matter what.
Buddy decided to fly out to a foreign country to milk spiders for a guitar string, and the only thing making that possible is money.
Money is the answer to all problems bar none, as long as you spend it right.
