At this point, we do not plan to release a VST/AU version of the Anyma Phi.

@drfritzon said in Anyma Phi Updates:

@laurent_aodyo Well..expression? X, Y and Z could be mapped to a wide variety of options ...

Such as? The channels of the standard MPE system cannot be determined, the numbers are automatically rotated according to some algorithm. Parallel streams of pitchbend, aftertouch and CC74 left without channel definition sounds more like problems than creative possibilities.

I’ve been using a 3 meter lead for some time. I find it’s always the case the shortest lead is provided.

@clint Thank you very much for your detailed answer! Have a good time!

Hello.

a) Using external USB midi controller to play or remote control the Anyma Phi is the reason why we integrated a USB Host plug. Only thing to know is that we didn't had the chance to check every MIDI controller with the Anyma Phi but any class compliant USB MIDI controller should work.
We tested the Korg Nanostudio which is a superset of Korg Nanokey2.

b) MPE compatibility
As a monophonic synth, the Anyma Phi is not really MPE compatible but can be setup to behave as one MPE voice

c) yes adaptation of all the patch is possible to use the Piezo as a note trigger instead of external MIDI device

Hope this make things clear to you

Unless a new Sylphyo appears with 10x the processing power, it's unlikely that it's gonna be able to rival computer-based physical models of winds, so no offense taken :).

As for directions for the future, I guess it'll focus on the controller part (reliability, ease of switching between different configurations, more options) about as much as the sound part.

@fanch35
Hey! Thanks for sharing such a nice and informative post.

Thanks to the Aodyo team, I received validation yesterday.

@jls Wow! Your cosmic doodle is different than the one I heard.

@join OK, this is excellent. More than the details, it gives me a whole new perspective on latency ... (but the details are cool too!)

Thank you !!!

(and thanks @Peter-Ostry as well)

It also explains why I saw significantly different MIDI coming out of the Link vs. the Sylphyo USB port for the same input ...

Hi Thomas,

It wasn't practical explaining the whole thing in the release notes, but you can find them in the Fingerings section of the user guide. I've highlighted the changes in the picture below.

@zelio Thanks.. I see it... I will play around with it.... Cheers

Have you tried a full reset on the Sylphyo?

I would suggest, before doing so, writing down each and every setting you have. We currently have to restore those settings by hand since there is no SYSEX save / restore capability.

You might consider a document that shows which settings differ from the defaults so that you only have to set those settings which change from the Reset / Default values.

Hey Clint !
The Master of the Link !!
How many tries to get the good rendition ?

Ok, so, if I have well understood,
because of the mixing between A and L generating "whistles",
it's NOT possible to use LINE IN as an AUDIO INTERFACE for a PC/SoundHardware in the configuration : Sylphyo-Link-PC/SoundHardware ?

@support_aodyo
Bonjour, j'ai le même souci. Ce n'est toujours pas possible avec la dernière maj ? Si oui, à l'étude pour la prochaine ?
Thomas

Hello,

This is explained on page 56 of the user manual.

Select the patch you want to copy using the display encoder. Press the display encoder and scroll down to Patch/Copy Select the patch number you want to copy the patch to Press the display encoder and scroll down to Patch/Paste

Hope this helps

@zsylvie Sylphyo Artists on Aodyo's web site?
Maybe Pedro Eustache?

@join Thank you very much for your input! The powerbank was the right tip!
So with the 3-in-1 adapter, a powerbank and a Y-cable it now works.
I had to plug-in the headphones to the adapter and connect the adapter to the iPhone. Then connect the additional power supply part of the Y-cable with the powerbank, the Y-cable with Sylphyo. Then plug in the Y-cable with power and sylphyo to the adapter.
After doing so I could start Audiobus app and play a software synth (Respiro) with my Sylphyo and a play along over my headphones :-)
All in all it’s not the sleekest solution, but hey - it works.

Thanks again for your support,
Christian

And you would get 30 instead of 20

@robdelancey Gracias a tu pregunta, me evité mucho.

After an "interactive mouth piece", an other wish : export sound from AnymaPhi and import in Sylphyo...!!!!

@clint knobs, knobs, knobs...
Many thanks Clint !

@bibenu

Thanks - the visuals are a huge help in seeing how useful these cables could be.

Have ordered them all now.

@wx-is-dead
I'm the one who did the recordings and the sound programming/adaptations and...
I live in Amsterdam and would love to get in contact with other Sylphyo player for experiance exchange...
share do's and donts

Please send us a mail to support@aodyo.com, with the version of the Anyma Phi firmware you're using, as well as the exact version of Windows and as much detail on your hardware as possible.

@laurent_aodyo said in Sylphyo Link wireless with another hardware synth/midi controller ?:

doesn't use Bluetooth

Thank heavens!! The Link radio interface is far superior to Bluetooth ...

Note that the Link unit has a rather complex routing setup that opens up a lot of possibilities. I have used it in a number of cases to reduce the number of boxes I need for certain live setups. Here is a map I've done of the routings (using Aodyo documentation and my own testing). The MIDI section is on the right, the audio section is on the left, and the middle "Synth" section converts incoming MIDI (on four input channels) to Audio (using the same internal sounds as the Sylphyo, as long as you've installed the same firmware on both your Sylphyo and Link):

+1 :) This would be very useful !

@bibenu said in Bug with editor import ?:

Well, the messages on the screen certainly suggest that's happening,

Sorry, I left it a bit unclear. Though the messages suggest the patch is being saved, it is not being saved. if you go to another patch, and come back, all you get is an initialised patch (sine wave). The only thing that has been saved is the name of the imported patch, everything else is gone.

@join ... wow thanks 4 that fast and comprehensive answer about my first comment..

my second comment about phy editor
please make something with update of the editor

if i didn't explain my proposal comprehensively I'll try again

@peter-ostry ...yes I also would love to play with a pianist who tunes 432 (a philosophical discussion)

but I believe the sylphyo should/has to be microtunable

@join Thanks for that!

Been playing with Reaction Time and Reaction Time Octaves and I'm getting the feeling that Reaction Time Octaves only comes in to play when I move from one thumb pad to another. My issue seems to occur mostly when I lift my thumb (and simultaneously change fingering on the front side).

In the fingering I'm using, lifting the thumb goes up an octave ... but this seems to use the Reaction Time delay and not the Reaction Time Octaves delay. Is that correct??

One solution is to introduce a very slight articulation to interrupt the airflow. I've started doing this subconsciously and this reduces artifacts (pops and beeps) substantially.

Merci pour la réponse, Je prend déjà le "Warn if unsaved" !
J'avoue que je serai ravi de l'amélioration du temps de passage entre les presets, ça m'évitera d'avoir une note entre 2 preset... :)

Maxence just forwarded the requests to me, so you can just send me a mail directly.

I've sent you one with a link to a beta to help you check your fingering updates, so that you have my address :).

Sorry, but our desktop software does not support Linux (and even if we provide a Linux build of the latest Anyma Phi editor, we do not offer support for it).
If it doesn't appear to work with the latest version of wine, your best bet would probably be running it on a virtual machine.

Wow, that must have been a bit frightening!

Yes, like all things wireless, as most are more or less restricted by law to the same 2.4 GHz band, when things get very crowded it can quickly turn into a silent fight for bandwidth, and WiFi often wins (hopefully, nowadays WiFi is pushing towards the 5 GHz band and even other higher bands, so in time this will be less of a problem).
The best thing to do to avoid this kind of thing would be to pair the Sylphyo and Link again when beginning the sound check, making sure all the other wireless gear is on-stage too and active, so that the Sylphyo/Link will fail to pair in the more-crowded channels, and will naturally land into a less-crowded channel.

Please send an email to support@aodyo.com about this and include pictures of the entire Diagnostics screen, which is located at the bottom of the Settings menu.

@bo2 Here is another configuration that I use when I am programming the VL70-m from an editor on my laptop:

OK, thank you for the reply.

We had a similar issue pop up a week ago with the latest macOS security updates.
I'll send you a mail from our customer support with instructions on how to solve this.

@meo Yes I meant range. Set it to 3000 (max). Set the minimum to 30. in MIDI mapping set BC to CC2 and Velocity to Dynamic. If still no change, try RESET (last menu item) and repeat.... Also have you checked the fingering chart for the instrument you have chosen. (under KEYS/Fingering). Good luck.... It seems a pity to give up so quickly...

@join Thank you.

@join GG et merci à tout ceux qui participent à ce projet ;)

@join

I did some more testing and I'm sure it is coming form Phi. Out both phones and L and R out. I tried reducing both FX on the patch but it is still crackling. I'll try to get the MIDI exported from the Deluge so you can see. I can also provide a sound file if you wish.

@peter-ostry Thanks Peter! Part of what I am thinking is suggestion number 2 of @gbarcza :

"a finger velocity sensivity adjustment to filter out unwanted bending while normal playing"

... along with maybe an addition setting to not begin key-bending until some percentage of the pad is uncovered.

The act of key bending on physical open-hole flutes is sooo natural and common that I think it would provide a very direct means of expressivity to a significant percentage of potential Sylphyo players ...

Making use of CC's to accomplish key-bending is (I'm thinking out loud here ...) maybe not so straightforward ... such a system would need to know which base key is in effect in order to determine which pair of notes we are bending from (easy - the prior Note On) and to (challenging - where is the target note??)
