It has been previously posted, but no apology necessary. Its a fantastic feat which stands being watched again.

As regards the N question, my gut feel is you'd struggle in HO/OO as there's a certain degree of 'resistance' with every strike, with a decent amount of oomph (forgive the technical term) needed to produce the note.

Sometimes you bite the dog...

...sometimes the dog bites you!

I can explain it to you...

...but I can't understand it for you.

If you did it with electrical or optical contacts and triggered samples, definitely. Otherwise as mentioned, there's not enough mass to strike a wine glass for the tone.

I hadn't seen it before so thank you.

Unfortunately, I can see a drunken Christmas experiment coming on  :worried:

Cheers, weave  :beers:

I hope your experiment goes better than mine! The liquid in the glasses keeps mysteriously disappearing, (hic) :pint:

Ah yes the Miniatur Wunderland  "music" video.  I saw that when they first posted it.  A clever bit of fun :)  There was a "making of" too, with some of the different experiments they tried for the best methods of "playing" the glasses.
