The damper bar can be set very extensively and sensitively:

* The damping sensitivity is adjusted by the adjustable pedal lever.

* The distribution of the damping effect along the beam is realized by adjusting the two traction straps

* A special feature is the precise adjustment of the parallelism of the damper bar by adjusting the force application points of the traction straps as shown in the video.

Hi everyone at vibesworkshop.com! I'd like to announce the publishing of my new Trio 'Verwirrspiel' ('Confusion') for marimba,vibraphone and percussion (cajon+cymbals).

It's a piece, i've been working on quite a while. The sound of marimba and vibes combined with cajon an cymbals is very inspiring to me. In addition, I have always been interested in rhythmic 'knots' and their resolution, as you can clearly hear in this piece. ;-)

The Ballad of the Sad Young Men" - a great ballad composed in 1959 by Tommy Wolf with lyrics by Fran Landesman. I was listening to Keith Jarrett and the trio on the plane home today and they play this song beautifully. It has been one of my favorites but I hadn't really checked it out. A beautiful song with a great melody and superb lyrics.

Brecker transcends all instruments so here is one of his workshops.

On August 24, 2019, Leigh from Malletech told me that they do not want to follow any of my concepts.
With that, I'm free again to market my topics myself or with other partners.

I have decided not to look for another vibraphone manufacturer as a partner, but to build a small manufactory in Europe and possibly with a private partner in the USA, if there is sufficient interest in this frame.
