Sampling transistor noise to pick the winners for my filter giveaway

[@danielmendes5682]

i think its a win for everyone since he also taught us how to make a white noise generator

[@amicarla]

That's the most transparent and fair randomized choice of winners I've seen on youtube! Great job!

[@bottlekruiser]

you have no idea how long he's been sitting there pressing the button to get the results he wanted

[@theanotherosc]

@@bottlekruiser Sounds like someone's salty they didn't win it... good luck next time though 🤷‍♂

[@bottlekruiser]

​@@theanotherosc how dares he do the rng whole 16 months before i even saw the giveaway video, let alone cheese it... smh my head

[@theanotherosc]

@@bottlekruiser SMH = shaking my head. shaking my head my head?

[@bottlekruiser]

@@theanotherosc yes

[@stuffandjunkanduhh5049]

I dont think there could have been a better way to pick the winners ...AND we learned something so WE ALL WON YALL hahaha

[@sjay4673]

Congrats to the two winners! This was a great creative way to pick them, Moritz!

[@kitludd465]

most entertaining raffle prize announcement ive seen, the white noise even sounded like a drum roll!

[@btg808]

Genius way of selecting the winners.. 🙏🏻

[@jan_ri]

This is the best way to determine a winner of a giveaway yet. Very awesome idea.

[@rivalo5]

But this surely would not be random right? If we would sample the frequency, sure it could be quite random. But within time domain, its actually randomly distributed around a zero-mean. Or in this case: half of the ADCs range: 255. Which is quite close to the actual winners! Really cool device, but I think your computers RNG still did most of the heavy lifting.

[@herrrakso9724]

Glückwunsch! Und danke, dass du alles an Dateien und sonstigem zugänglich machst und die Sachen auch so gut erklärst! Das ist eine sehr kreative Art und Weise ein Gewinnspiel zu veranstalten!

[@Moonbrony]

So close and grats to the winners. What a genius way to find the winners!

[@Neurotypique]

Best way to pick a winner! I have never enjoyed losing so much

[@eto_fedos]

Congratulations to winners! I didn't won, but I was very happy when saw my name in the beginning of the list! And by the way, thank you for white noise generator schematic, I will definitely try to use it in snare/clap drum :)

[@MrRoskoPeko]

Love the way this was drawn. 👏🏻 Well done to the lucky winners. Thank you Moritz for the opportunity to enter the giveaway.

[@richardhead8264]

*6:23* _The anisotropic reflections from your silver knobs are mesmerizing!_ 😵

[@K.D.Fischer_HEPHY]

"Pfffffft..." - The transistor has spoken !

[@MeeBilt]

Congrats to the winners!

[@Mana-em4bh]

So cool! Congrats to the lucky winners

[@Bassface138]

Great idea! 👍 Congratulations to the lucky winners. 🎉

[@rpocc]

By the way, it’s safer to put the collector to ground via 1MΩ resistor to prevent it from catching the RF.

[@BIGRIP87]

very very cool circuit & congrats to the winners..

[@JamesPearson]

Haha that was brilliant Moritz, nice one. Well done to the winners :)

[@ericwalls7717]

Nothing like creating a "devining rod" to attenuate the cosmic microwave background for a good old roll of the dice!!!

[@CircularMirror7]

That's a interesting way to pick them. Great idea.

[@Tyborg82]

Gutted I didn't win, but this video made up for it. Brilliant idea and very informative. Thank you

[@federico8918]

Daamn this is so creative! And also in theme to the whole synth diy electronic channel!

[@jmcmoi57]

congrats guys!

[@figueroalabs]

I followed a couple of frames, and it does look like the bits tend to go to high, and actually there are several frames where the output was all ones.

[@Triggs-Music]

would have been fun to win one, but I'm glad now Im going to just build one. You've given me a summer project!

[@transition6559]

Ausgezeichnetes Verfahren! Toll gemacht!!! :-)

[@nicolasgeijo1785]

Such a great idea.

[@MarkusAudio]

Even if I didn´t win the module, I win more knowledge everytime :-) Congratulations to the Winners...und noch mal Vielen Danke Moritz fur diese Lektion!

[@BeniRoseMusic]

This was amazing! Do I need anything beyond the op amp to use that white noise generator in a eurorack DIY module?

[@MoritzKlein0]

no, i would recommend you remove the trimmer though!

[@maximiliandroge7417]

Awesome! Very nice Idea! Grüsse!

[@zsigmondkara]

This was amazing!

[@11SethJH]

I had literally just found this transistor white noise generator circuit on schmitzbits yesterday and built it before I saw your video. Now I feel guilty that I'm "torturing" the poor transistor lol

[@feudiable]

That was one of the best draws ever:)Have you considered offering a kit? I think the people from thonk could make that work in a way you don't actually have to deal with hardware/shipping etc.

[@ericwalls7717]

Isn't that an integral circuit for the probability drive on the "heart of gold"?

I love your videos! Been searching for those Capacitors you use, the film caps. Do you know where I could order a big batch or a kit of different value polypropylene film caps online? Cheers! And keep up doing great videos!

[@MoritzKlein0]

if you google "WIMA capacitors" you should be able to find kits!

[@unsoundmethodology]

Hah, very nicely done. Need to get to building, I guess!

[@ВиталийПроцко-ч7ы]

Hardware random generation is awesome!

[@the_smart_work_project1443]

That was fun!

[@sonikboom007]

This is awesome!

[@iamsushi1056]

Moritz when will we be getting a ringmod episode?

[@KattKirsch]

I didn't win but I was definitely educated and entertained. Maybe I'll build one of these darn things after all.

[@VandalIO]

Which transistor has the most melodic noise ?

[@Galova]

Is there a transistor giving the most pleasing noise?

[@blenderbuch]

That was unique 😳🍻

[@getbentaudio585]

Dude, this was fun!!

[@ff-qf1th]

damn! so close. that was fun tho!

[@andrsam3682]

This is so cool

[@splackism]

Another great video. Let's see if there are at least 507 good sports that didn't win who like this video.

[@PandaKattPk]

Cheers adc0820 looks awesome fun

[@johnnielondon9840]

Super cool way of doing this Moritz. Bravo 👊 Kurze Frage - which OpAmp did you use to amp the white noise? Thank you again 🙌🙌🙌

[@gerbenloohuis8784]

Haha very nice raffling! 👌

[@peter.stimpel]

Great way, state of the art.

[@paugasolina5048]

lol, das war ja tatsächlich echter zufall :D

[@devjock]

I have a suspicion that there's going to be DCO's in the near future :)

[@ericwalls7717]

I had to ggoolge dco circuit

[@israelgiron9089]

I was near!

[@BaratheonBC]

but quantum entanglement... is it really random :D

[@tanjiro3285]

suppppper quality. please make electronics basics videos ❤️ in ur styleeee. not very basic but tips and ideas

[@kfarms718]

So close! Haha

[@LoganGuerra]

Awesome

[@Asdayasman]

F in the chat for the guy that got picked but passed over during the test.

[@julian4035]

It doesen´t work at me but why?

[@ivand8393]

Oh Moritz, why do I always have bad luck ? :-)

[@inerlogic]

Darn.... didn't win... did see my name on the list though! Lol

[@VandalIO]

I’m interested

[@buckstarchaser2376]

Nice hiss!

[@Spentelectrons]

Figures. I religiously watch every video start to finish and few minutes my new born distracted me from your video I missed the giveaway

[@bmgartist]

Lol It might be me but it wasn't - Never mind congrats to the winners :-)

[@white-anthony]

Frank Ocean! Haha!

[@Qugfvraceysgvigaivys]

Show the Noise PSD so we know this isn't rigged! Cool Video
