Rush e is an example of a music subgenre called black midi, it's notable by being generally only able to be played in simulation just by the shear number of notes played at once and it's called black midi because if you tried to print of the sheet music you wouldn't be able to see the staff for the notes

I'm pretty sure the "piano catching fire" part is just theatrics. The smoke is perfectly timed and comes from the bottom of the piano, while the part that is the most likely to overheat and produce smoke like that (the solenoids) are placed directly underneath the keys. You'd also see keys fail pretty quickly because that (usually toxic) smoke would be the insulation between coil windings burning up.

@asj3419

2 жыл бұрын

As a side note, it should be fully possible to make the solenoids to do pretty much anything that a human can. If the system can fully control the force, then it could wary the force over time, which I don't see being any different from how a human would play. The only differences (I think) would be that it has no sense of how hard it's pushing, which could be managed beforehand. The solenoid sysem could even be engineered to pull the key back up, but it doesn't seem like this piano can do that. The real limitations would be how the software controls the piano and how the keypresses are recorded.

It’s definitely fake smoke just for the good video title 😂 and yes, i think they probably could mimic a real player, the limitation comes from the midi input which only has 127 levels of velocity and it doesn’t account for speed of press.

​@@matticawood Fourier transforms are different than the harmonics of the piano but it sounds like you relized that after making the video. Lucas is correct that the reproduction using the piano isn't going to be faithful because he's only taking three "notes" of the fourier series to reproduce each timestep of the vocals. But, Matthew, (unwittingly) mention another aspect of the piano that makes it distinct from human vocals, which is the harmonics of the piano. So the vocal reproduction suffers not simply from the truncated Fourier representation but also the very different harmonics of the piano to the human vocal cords. With that said, you can get human vocal cord to exhibit harmonic behavior. You might very well be aquainted with Tuvan throat singing.

@@matticawood As Nathan says, the Fourier transforms are not equivelent to the harmonics of an instrument. While it can be equivalent if the sound being processed is purely the sound of a singular instrument, the Fourier transform is a far more generalized function of waves in general, not even limited to music. It's a way to decompose a wave into it's component frequencies at a given point in time. And it's not an approximation, it's an exact representation. The approximation comes when using the computed Fourier series to do something. There are a number of reasons for the inaccuracy: 1) The Fourier series becomes better approximation the more of the component frequencies are used, three or even 4-5 isn't really enough to get a good approximation 2) The Fourier series works on pure sine waves of a single frequency, since each note of the piano has it's own harmonics when played combining the notes will never add up completely correctly because they are not pure tones. 3) The piano contains fundamental frequencies each a semitone apart, meaning any tone that requires a frequency between two keys must be rounded to the closest frequency within the tuning method (in the case of the video equal temperament) or use both neighboring keys with differing action, either way it's not the same as if there was a key of that specific frequency. 4) The example shown with decomposing the wave into a combination of other waves zooms way in on the sound wave. Any complex sounds or combinations of sounds will have the frequencies it's composed of change very frequently. You'd need to recalculate the Fourier transform tens of times a second in some cases to get to a point where it's indistinguishable. And considering the limits of the piano in terms of playing and stopping notes extremely fast this means you can only reasonably calculate the Fourier series a handful of times a second. The Fourier transform is only 100% exact at a specific given instant of time along the wave, and when the resolution/fidelity is infinite. In practical usage we use a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) which is an approximation, since a true, 100% accurate Fourier Transform takes a long time to compute that it's not practical. Even so a FFT is far more than accurate enough to recreate any given wave to a quality where it's indistinguishable from the original. It still has the same limitations as a full Fourier Transform in that it's only accurate at a specific given moment, if you can recreate all necessary possible component frequencies as pure frequencies, and for extremely small periods of time. Which can not be done on a piano for the reasons listed above. The issue is not with the 127 levels of input, as at 127 levels the difference between two adjacent levels is already indistinguishable in person (I guarantee that even the most exacting, precise pianist in the world, when playing the same note in the same song, will naturally vary the velocity by upwards of 3-5 equivalent levels when trying to recreate the same velocity. While it's true that from a physical standpoint a human player has an analog basically infinite range of speeds here, no one is consistent enough to play the key at a specific velocity every single time, there will always be deviance, and such deviances will be larger than a single level of those 127 possible levels), let alone when combines with the limited bit depth of audio samples in digital audio. No one would be able to tell the difference between level 111 and 112 as the change would be so small that the only way you'd be able to tell would be through audio analysis. The human ear is very powerful, but just like vision our hearing cheats a lot, just as there are visual illusions so to are there auditory illusions, because our hearing is not perfect and subtleties are lost almost entirely without other stimulation for comparison against.

The Fourier transformed on small fractions of sound is a mathematical simulation of how the human ear works, with the hundreds of tiny hairs inside the snail, each resonating on a single frequency and activating a nerve for each.

one thing people seem to forget is that there are 2 Rush E's in circulation. The original impossible version and the Possible version that someone created for people to attempt on real pianos. Still very hard, but actually "possible"

I love that people are so impressed with RUSH E. It's barely testing the waters of what is black midi lol. Great analysis and vid though. I'm always impressed with how much better an actual pianist can make things sound despite all the technology at our fingertips.

On midi Velocity: It depends on the standard and extension of midi that the device is capable of or listening to. Yamaha Pianos that have midi capability run on Yamaha's XG format which allows for 512 velocity and dynamic levels. And there is an extension that allows for a theoretical 1024 levels of velocity and dynamic range. All of which are theoretically possible with that piano. The general opinion among electronic music composers tends to be that 128 levels is enough anyways. I thought you'd find the extra info interesting.

@matticawood

That is super interesting, I didn’t know there was the possibility of a wider range of velocities. I assumed it might be capped for some technical limitation or something! 😊

What makes it groundbreaking is that it can very closely mimic a human player using the mechanical action of a real piano. Many pianos like it are similar but… less. They can’t produce as close as that to a human. Also… while the speaking may sound bad, you also need to remember that it requires a very specific set of keys to be pressed at the perfect speed, pressure and timing to even get there. The fact you can still understand the words said, from a piano is pretty amazing. If it were done on an electronic one, that would be nothing special but no, that was on a real, playable by a human still, piano.

I agree, making sure that the right frequencies are played at a velocity to get the quality of sound to hear words is very impressive from an engineering perspective and would be very difficult to do as a human player. I still think there are limitations using midi input because it can’t account for the action (speed of key depression) and it can only work with velocity in 127 steps so from a musical perspective it will always lack the nuances a human can achieve when playing music 😊

Really to even get that extra information (and they might have already done this) they would need to have another means of recording player input like custom feedback switches for each key on that piano and then it could truly record a player's actions with the most precision possible and replicate the playing almost completely precise give or take the slight changes from the temperature of the room affecting the sound ;) If that was added.. and professional players were hired in to "record" some beautiful music that could forever be replicated to such high precision would be amazing.. just hope for your sake they don't mass produce them ;) lmfao

To answer the question of speed. F=ma which means the force equals mass times acceleration. Thus with mass being the same the acceleration must change. To change acceleration we need a change in velocity over time. Thus, the time it takes to reach a position relates to acceleration meaning the speed of movement decides force.

Just a quick correction for 9:45. There is 128 values you can use. It's 0 - 127 where 0 is equal to the key being released

No, he did not do anything truly ground breaking with the creation of the piano. The tech to make this piano has been around for a long time, and has probably already been done. But it would be very expensive, so not a commercial ready product. But, what is great is how he used this expensive piano and a meme to teach. That is his strength! Starting with something relatable and seemingly difficult (but of course it is not difficult for a computer) he taught about the inner workings of the piano and taught some high level math with the Fourier Series. Doing that in a concise and entertaining way is ground breaking.

It was interesting watching his video. I’m a guy who cuts open pianos and turns them into player pianos lol It would be easier to play the Rush E song on a grand piano than the upright, grands naturally have faster repetition than uprights due to the fact that gravity is helping them reset the hammers into firing position rather than an upright piano which needs additional help as it is traveling horizontally. To answer your question about key velocity it’s a yes and no. Like mark said you have a range of values for how hard the solenoid needs to work to press the key, aka how much power to put behind the strike. You can think of it as velocity. Below a certain threshold the solenoid won’t build up enough force to fire the key and strike the string. As for determining the touch things get tricky. You have to keep in mind that as cool as player pianos are they still run off midi files which don’t always have as much nuanced detail as live performances. This is improving over time though- look into some of the cool stuff the Disklavier is able to do with its optical recording models. This records less “a G5 played at this second/millisecond at this volume” and more “I saw the key back move at this time and hammer butt move at this time so this key is moving in this way.” When they record with motion rather than stop rail data you can record yourself lightly wiggling the keys or pedals without making and actual sound and the piano still picks it up.

@@matticawood OMG HE ACTUALLY REPLIED thx so much

9:27 i think that it can mimic human touch because velocity is after all momentum when considering mass and change in momentum in a definite span of time would give you the force. The time can be adjusted by the current through the solenoid

I've owned and played a player piano. Rush e would rapidly outstrip the capacity of the pnumatics. Most are pedal bellows. Some modification may help, but punching holes that close on the roll would mean that the valve slots would not be completely covered. Player pianos have a limited repeat rate. You would have to write an abridged version to suit it.

Awesome video, keep up the good work

I love how matthew just threw rush e

You are correct in that the piano is technically still a string instrument despite percussive force being applied to make the sound. I know it's not the ONLY classification system for instruments but the Hornbostel-Sachs system classifies the piano as a chordophone, and not an idiophone or membranophone like most percussion instruments are. This is DESPITE the fact that it uses the hammers to make sound, and is represented thus as a 314.122-4-8 in that system's numbering method, or a simple chordophone using a string bearer that is shaped like a board or is the ground that is played with a keyboard and sounded with hammers. Interestingly, this means that a piano is in the same general instrument family as zithers, such as the chinese guqin and the japanese koto. Also, keyboard instruments under that system are not in their own category, but rather being played with a keyboard is a suffix that you add on when representing an instrument in that system. But hey, that's just one of the most common systems that organologists use, it's not the only one as I said so you CAN still say the piano is a string and percussion instrument that also fits neatly into the subcategory of keyboard based instruments.

Percussion is defined as a "musical instrument played by striking with the hand or with a handheld or pedal-operated stick or beater, or by shaking, including drums, cymbals, xylophones, gongs, bells, and rattles."

That’s right! A piano does that, but it is also a string instrument 😊 - “String instruments, stringed instruments, or chordophones are musical instruments that produce sound from vibrating strings when a performer plays or sounds the strings in some manner.”

It depends on what decade/century you were classifying it. Originally it was stringed … then reclassified as percussion …. But it’s current classification is as a keyboard instrument … at least that’s what I was taught at the RCM about 25 years ago
