Sheet Metal Soundboards
Sheet metal as a soundboard material for musical instruments is problematic in many ways, yet it has the potential for a lot of interesting and unusual sounds, as you'll see and hear in this video. For a more in-depth discussion of sheet metal, both as a soundboard material and as a primary sound source in itself, look for this article: https://barthopkin.com/metal-sheet-in.... For more of Bart's instruments, look for additional videos in the Bart Hopkin youtube channel or visit the Instrumentarium at www.BartHopkin.com. Bart has also recently released an album of his music, made primarily on instruments he's made. It's called Audiorium, and it's available through the usual download and streaming services.
