If you hear occasional crackling noises throughout this video - don't worry, you're not going crazy! I tried everything I could to fix it in post, but it seems some crackling noises still came through in the final upload :( Sorry!

[@destroything]

@@Polyfjord where exactly did the crackling noises come from?

[@Polyfjord]

@@destroything it was my PC having too many USB connections directly to the mother board, so my audio interface must have gotten a lower priority or something. But I got a usb hub with its own power delivery, and moved all the other usb connections to that, and it worked! Kinda sucks to figure it out *after* the tutorial was recorded, but I'm glad I'll be having better recordings going forward!

[@destroything]

@@Polyfjord that's great to hear (the better recordings part, not that you had to deal with unfortunate audio issues)

[@artandgrow9240]

It’s okay Polyjford to only be human! I really appreciate this tutorial, I’ve really been looking forward to it this whole time!!! This old lady will need to rewatch things a few times, but I aim to create a visual to go with a Japanese folk song 😆

[@theowllol]

@Polyfjord Hi, is it fine for you if I use this add-on for a Musical movie? Of course, I would create my own style. Are you fine with using it in other KZbin movies or short cinematics?

[@WibleWobble]

"I dont really like these trajectories" - The man who made the trajectory addon Seriously though, this is awesome! Great result

[@nidhu595]

FINALLY! an actual decent music visualiser tutorial that doesnt just use noise that is moved by the amplitude!

[@JJzerro]

actually what is wrong with this method?

[@_S_P_A_C_E_M_A_N_]

Been waiting for this! This is exactly what i need for a project I'm working on! Great stuff as always

[@agyab_cg]

😅

[@PiginaCage]

There are at least 10 amazing Blender tips in this one video. Thank you so much

[@davestone2792]

Thank you so much. I literally gasped when I saw these in Instagram and was struggling to figure out how you did this. For me, it truly is a beautiful work of genius.

[@Nickel3D]

Can's miss a Polyfjord tutorial!! A delightful experience each video, keep it up sir!

[@noelhutz]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="158">2:38</a> love the little norwegian slips you have sometimes xD great video as always!

[@Piano-Therapy]

I AM SO HYPE FOR THAT COURSE

[@WaterShowsProd]

Like I commented on Instagram: I like how this is essentially a modern descendant of Max Fleischer's bouncing ball shorts, but watching this I suddenly thought, you're probably not old enough to remember the musical 3-D animations where balls bounced around these musical worlds, hitting the instruments in time to the music. They were truly groundbreaking when they were made in either the late 1980s or early 1990s. It's just interesting how this theme keeps returning and gets reinvented with the latest technology. In this case even incorporating A.I.! Great stuff, as always.

[@realblenderassassin]

really love your videos man keep it up

[@AHSEN.]

So talented that you can even play piano with your nose! Great video as always :). Despite the fact that I've been using Blender for 5 years now, every video is worth watching. The quality on these is incredible!

[@crestmagic6640]

I can't wait to try and recreate Beethoven's 6th Symphony using this technique. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and creativity.

[@leafy_5]

😮 I never knew there was any downside to persistent data setting😮 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1595">26:35</a> thank you! Amazing video! So much valuable info 🙏

[@OlliHuttunen78]

This is so lovely and inspiring. Thank you for this tutorial and the bounce add-on! You are the Best!

[@CorinneIsIn]

Geez, you're so good at this. I'm in awe.

[@agyab_cg]

I don't want to put anyone down because there are others who make good tutorials, but I think he is the number one. 🤔

[@Queen3D_fi]

Very cool video and technique, my cat was mesmerized :D Will be on the look out for the course - secretly hoping it includes you playing the entire Axel F with your nose as bonus 👃

[@BrainStorm2-r6v]

Hey polyfjord, can you make a tutorial of procedural nebulas in blender?

[@RoskoFig]

Amazing content as usual, your videos and tutorials have such a different vibe to everyone else, I'm always waiting for new videos after the newest one. Keep doing what you do best! 🙏

ahahah when i created them i made exactly the same process and used the sames apps, that's crazy :)

[@voxeldeev]

Wait a second.... Were you able to straight up ask ChatGPT a prompt and it gave you a whole functional script for it? or did you have to go back and debug it and what not? (I'm a programmer/composer) Edit: I forgot to mention that THIS IS AMAZING!!! Thank you so much!

[@melodyflute2999]

25.26 the pronunciation 🤌🏻🤩

[@PiginaCage]

Can you please make a tutorial about how we can do this with rigid bodies? have you seen those bouncing ball videos ?

@@nidhu595 thank you so much

[@Elijah_Coombs]

Great video. However my computer is not the right version is there a way to fix this or could you do a tutorial. Still amazing though!

[@manuelzabala164]

Hi Friend! Thank you so much for your tutorial. Would it be possible to have the projectile's original follow it? I am trying to have the camera track the path and focus on the projectile but its focusing on the original instead. RIP

[@BasheerShaik-yh5bx]

Now tell us how did you do the stylized map thing

[@crownedcorn]

the end tho

[@Timeline.Fitness]

Hi, at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="302">5:02</a> whenever I try to add the curve object my projectile goes off in a crazy direction nowhere near the curve. It looks like it's attached to something as it bounces up and down and changes size when moved, but it never is on the bounce curve. How do i fix?

[@JitendraJadeja-y4q]

hello there i have a major issue when i was making this project.... <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="308">5:08</a> you have also tell us that if your curve spawned at the wrong side here you can select the curve go to edit mode -> right click->switch direction . i have done that too but it still done in opposite direction. please help me with it 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@Polyfjord]

@@JitendraJadeja-y4q if you’re in edit mode and click switch direction and nothing happens, you need to have one of the control points selected first. So it’s like highlighted. Did it work?

[@ShaQueenaFiqa]

i waiting this 2 week 😢

[@yashgajjarart]

Is that a video glitch or something else ?i foud codec problem in exporting

[@jozsefunderscore2320]

would this work in blender 3.6?

[@simonfiskss5740]

How do I add the piano background?

[@yesdadbut960]

Where can we download that extension ?

[@florianf4007]

theres no simple bounce curves in preferences

[@MrNotAGamer]

have you downloaded the addon?

[@yalcinment.]

I'm willing to teach you geometry node.

Great video! I tried doing it with this music though: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYSldqxverBoi8k. I converted the MP3 into a MIDI, then used your site to convert it into an SVG. However, when I import the SVG into Blender, it appears kind of squished together. Do you have any solution for that?

[@theboomerangfamily9390]

Your channel is a rare mix of technical expertise and creativity, I simply love it ! Could your plugin or any part of the workflow be used to create something like this : kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2XQoJWjrcqod5I

[@awblenderpersonalprojects]

Or "How to make a sperm in Blender"... 🤣

[@bennoH.-cr9gu]

❤️💚💙 by a lover of mivingMotion in RGB 🙏🤟👍- 💫✨🌟⭐⭐ Thanks a lot for that free Tuto. Always welcom by my as a VideoArtist sutch great stuff. Just I have to checkout that I can replicat it by my side. If I can, I switch som litle and adding new things, mix it with others & so I gat a personal version for my performances, perhaps as liveperforming under 4.3 by using experimental vulkan is posibly.
