@Clint The LUB camp should be disbanded. It seems Aodyo is squarely in the SOR camp (shortage of resources). When obvious problems manifest and improvements needed, the users deserve them, as soon as possible. The continuous striving for excellence is an outstanding quest...... I would like to become a beta (better) tester.... P

@Ksavi
Brancher un Nanokey2 sur l'USB host? Oui c'est possible. En tout cas, il alimente très bien mon Joué.

Compatible MPE? Non, c'est un synthétiseur monophonique, le MPE n'a pas d’intérêt en soi. Est-ce que ça peut prendre les données d'expression (CC74, pitch-bend 48 semitons, aftertouch) en single channel? Absolument!!! J'ai plusieurs contrôleurs MPE et ils fonctionnent comme un charme en single channel ou via un channel merger.
En fait c'est même mieux, le synthé peux prendre un CC comme données d'expression et remplacer la vélocité. C'est particulièrement utile pour les simulations d' instruments à vents ou à cordes.

Le piezo interne est mono et peut moduler n'importe quoi dans le système. Directement comme source audio à "pinger" dans un résonateur. Ou convertir en courbe de vélocité/expression avec l'enveloppe follower. J'utilise deux microphones contact pas cher. Chacun sur un canal L ou R et tu peux contrôler deux oscillateurs/sources indépendantes de cette façon. C'est très flexible. Tu peux programmer des seuils de déclenchement où un micro trigge un oscilateur à fort volume et juste passe dans un résonateur à faible volume. Le pitch peut être associé indépendamment via l'arp ou un séquenceur (ou n'importe quoi...).

Et le synthé peut être paraphonique dans une certaine mesure.

Bref il y a de quoi s'amuser... La seule limite est ton immagination et la charge cpu...

@Gromit Great hint! Got it. Thanks again!
I thought about the mini USB … but couldn't imagine because of the standard USB plug. So all sylphyo up-to-date. Great controller for Sequential analog synths. all the best :-)

@thecoastguard you are not alone. I have the same problem. I got some help and a beta OS via email but not quite solved. So I’ve left my Anyma Phi powered on for months. Have you fixed yours?

@Peter-Ostry said in Dual Sylphyo Setup:

Each time a player switches on his/her Sylphyo, it should connect to the same Link=Synth.

Yes, good point. That's the way it should be ...

very helpful thanks

@Thomas
I get ppp to ff with no problem.

I have adopted most of the Sylphyo SWAM recommended settings or their equivalent due to the updated SWAM 3 interface.
The important thing is to set the SWAM compressor to the minimum otherwise the attack (for wind instruments at least) tend to be too aggressive.
The SWAM compressor setting is in the effects page.

My Sylphyo settings (with the number 2 stopper) for playing with the iOS SWAM (and occasionally the GeoShred SWAM) are:

Midi mapping
Breath CC11
Send to CC11
Plus Aftertouch
Breath Max
per CC On
Delay if needed On
Velocity 127
Slider ctrl CC1
Top slider ctrl CC12
Bottum slider ctrl CC13
Elevation ctrl CC20
Roll ctrl CC76
Compass ctrl CC77
Keybend ctrl 78

Breath
Minimum 40
Range 2100
Curve linear
Filtering Off

Fingering
Flute
Octaves 5(+2)
Invert Octaves Off
Replay Same Note Off
Reaction Time 5 ms
Reaction Time Octaves 30ms
More sensitive On

Cheers,
Fred

I support this feature request.

But I expect a problem with Compass. How do we tell it the direction we want to play?
We would need some sort of Center, Reset, Set Direction, however you name it.

Otherwise we could only play on stages that face north :-)

We had a chance to try the R1 recently. It is very nice to hold and the lights are neat. It is targeted at beginners and occasional players with very low expectations regarding performance and quality, and the sound set is aimed at the asian market.

@laurent_aodyo
Bonsoir,

c'est ce que j'ai fait, merci pour votre retour.

@shannon Yes, an all white battery symbol means fully charged.

@jcfitn said in How about a Sylphyo update now?:

I like to use Roll to chage the fine tune, but if is not in a smaller range is less interesting. And in absolute with 360º of range is not sensitive enough.

Yes. Similar problem here:

I like to map Roll CC to Pitchbend (unfortunately not directly available in the Sylphyo yet). In normal mode there is a hysteresis in the neutral position, a kind of "platform", where values do not change. This is basically good, but you cannot pitch smoothly across the neutral position. Absolute mode would be the method of choice, but here your Roll range is 90° left/right, which is hardly playable.

One could say "scale the absolute Roll CC to the range you want", but not everyone in every setup can process 14Bit pitchbend coming from the Sylphyo. If you are bound to 7Bit pitchbend, you would upscale less than a quarter of the 0-127 full range and this leads to audible steps.

I think high-resolution sensor output should be scaled in the instrument, while full sensor data are available, not after MIDI translation.

@clint Thanks !

@jjaylds At this point, fingerings can only be added / modified by Aodyo and distributed in a firmware update. The ability for users to add / modify fingerings has been requested and discussed, but there has been no action so far (that we know of).

Generative ballad :-)

Ballad.anymaphi-patch

Sorry for slow thinking ...

An additional CC as indicator for the Roll direction left/right is not the best idea. Selectable CCs for left/right would be the way to go. Set them to the same value: play as usual. Set them different: You get one for Roll left and one for Roll right. Same for Compass.

Many thanks CBec !
I was Out.
Now I'm In !

Now I got the bottom of the fault!
The battery indicator AND the way of recharching it : after more or less 48h of recharching without any sign of the Sylphyo functioning, it finally started with full charge on the indicator!
Moral : don't trust it!

Thanks Frank and Laurent

I just try the opportunity to "connect another controller to link" as said in the Link-user-guide.
And so, I try to control a software/vst with Ewi through Link.

OK, it's a bit ... huummm

Yes, Ewi direct in computer : it's OK.

PS : sorry it's Respiro (and not Reverso...)

@zelio This has always been possible under macOS. Most people with this issue are using Windows drivers that present this limitation.

In a future update we could maybe consider having a separate USB-MIDI device port dedicated to the editor (or if not possible at least let you dedicate an existing port to editor communication, which would prevent the port from being used for MIDI routing).
In the meantime you can leave the first USB-MIDI device port to the editor, and use the MIDI DIN ports for your DAW, as @frank suggested.

Hi @peter-ostry

The Midi channels will be different for each note played, the CC are fixed
And since the Phi is in omni receive mode, all channels will be received.

since the Phi is monophonic one has to adapt the playing style to single notes,

Unles you wat to create a 4 voice or 8 voice Anyma Phi. Like Oberheim did with the 4 voice and 8 voice machine, constructed with 4 to 8 SEM modules. Will be interesting !!

I whish i had the funds to create such a machine

Kind regards

Frank

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

Thanks to the Aodyo team, I received validation yesterday.

@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?

Here:

And you would get 30 instead of 20

@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.
