▶ Black Rock (Cliff Stapleton) Vio Prototype Demo Solo Hurdy Gurdy | Acoustic sound & Internal Pickups



Black Rock (Cliff Stapleton) Vio Prototype Demo Solo Hurdy Gurdy - YouTube
Published on Aug 14, 2016 by Barnaby Walters
Cliff Stapleton’s tune “Black Rock”, played on my third prototype hurdy gurdy. The audio source changes over the video from acoustic sound to the internal pickups so that the sound from each can be compared.

As this is a demo of the instrument, no additional EQ, effects or processing was applied to the sound — this is the raw signal.


this video is part of the Weekly's playlist "#Lutherie"

▶ Non Resonating Hurdy-gurdy | Neil Brook


Non Resonating Hurdy-gurdy introduction - YouTube

An introduction to my new concept hurdy-gurdy which is designed to minimise the acoustic sound so better to hear the effect of the multiple pickups.

Now it's connected to fx units and an amplifier, the NRG can do whatever the player wants. It's not really what I do but shows some possibilities . Gregory Jolivet would have better ideas I'm sure !!

via Anna Murphy on facebook: The Yellow Single preamp is the latest addition to my hurdy-gurdy live setup and it was the missing piece of the puzzle to create the optimum live sound together with my new electronic Accento hurdy-gurdy by Drehleierwerkstatt. The sound is now naturally warm, but without losing it's assertiveness which often happens when using "regular" EQs.

A happy hurdy, is a happy gurdy.

MidiGurdy - The Electronic Hurdy Gurdy








Have you ever sat at home late at night, wanting to play your hurdy gurdy but didn't dare because it would wake the neighbours? Went somewhere without your gurdy, beause it wouldn't fit in your luggage? Would you love to try various gurdy sounds without having to buy three our four different instruments?

The MidiGurdy is a fully electronic hurdy gurdy without acoustic sound production. It currently acts as a MIDI controller for a SoundFont synthesizer running on an iPad. Built-in sound production is in the works.

The MidiGurdy was designed to enable players to practice without disturbing neighbours, colleagues and family members. Want to try a new trompette technique late at night? Practice using the MidiGurdy, then use your new skill on your real gurdy!

Or if you are into experimental sounds... use the MidiGurdy on stage. Attach different synths, use your gurdy playing skills to trigger new kinds of sounds.
