It pretty much is. I can confirm that because I play around with a synthesizer app on my phone. I made a K5LA, then played with the pitch, and when I lowered the pitch, I noticed it sounded EXACTLY like a Nathan M5.
@ That’s insane, I remember asking someone if they could make some 3d printed back caps or parts for the horn but the person said it would break from air vibration and pressure. What type of 3d printer did you use?
Would putting double diaphragms in the power chambers eliminate the squeak? I ask because if so, I wouldn’t be able to tell the sound of this horn apart from an actual M5! I really wish Nathan Airchime made the P5s like this, it’s officially become my favorite P horn.
@@mikeoc5763 I'm using actual Nathan P diaphragms, I don't think plastic diaphragms would work very well. I'm honestly not sure what the open tone uses.
@@SuperTyfonator The Open Tone power section is a different design, tuneable but very low power output. I used a TPU diaphragm. It works but....... I'm looking for a prototype chime to model and print. Cool stuff, thanks for posting.
Now you gotta 3D print a K5LA with the same chord lol
Going to be testing the viability of a 3D printed 4a prototype soon
I’m looking forward too it 🫡🙌🏿
Heavenly sound! 😮
Woahhhhh love that horn
It sounds like a lowered K5LA

You are correct! The notes/intervals are all exactly the same but transposed down a couple half steps similar to an M5.
Very nice!
Wow! That’s beautiful! I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to distinguish between this and a Nathan Airchime horn.
Sounds really nice and musical. What part is 3d printed?
The whole thing is 3d printed, minus the bolts and diaphragms

@@TracksideTyson Bambu lab P1S. And nope, handles the vibrations just fine. Bells are all 100% infill, manifold is 50% infill with 7 wall loops.

In my experience running double diaphragms slightly increases the squeakiness. But thank you! It’s one of my new favorite configurations now
@@SuperTyfonator Im printing the Open Tone 5 horn 3d model. Please what material are you using for diaphragms? Thanks.
