@peter-ostry The Link's midi output does not function as a thru output, sorry Peter!

@peter-ostry On the LED setting: it is only for the Snow edition. Only that edition has a LED. I too was confused about this and asked a while back in https://community.aodyo.com/topic/546/led-setting/5

@peter-ostry Interesting. Thanks for the observations. We will have a look at this next week.

@clint I've been able to replicate this issue on my end. We'll have a closer look at it next week. Thank you for reporting this!

@join I must completely remove all my fingers from the pads and stop blowing in order to get it to stop playing the wrong note.

Hi Rick,

In order to make as realistic a sound as possible, we've had to sacrifice a bit of expressivity in Flute Phi. This means that certain playing techniques such as staccato are restricted on that sound because of the difficulty of adapting the algorithms. We prioritised the realism over the expressivity.
In order to get a sound that will work better for these playing techniques, you can try out sound number 8 Chalumeau or maybe number 2 Daphnis Flute? Let me know how you get on with those!
We will of course do our best to improve this in the future and will let you know how this progresses.

Best,

@support_aodyo merci Maxence ! Je vais donc patienter.

@clint Thanks for all the technical details. For your concerns, I don't think you need to be worried unless you are being particularly harsh with your headphones and the Sylphyo! People have been using the Sylphyo for almost 6 years and we have had very very few complaints about the 1/8" connector or the USB port.

@samii Super

@steviek The latest update always contains all the other updates too!

@support_aodyo The Factor Reset worked!! I can now store settings and they persist through a power cycle.

Thankfully, I wrote down the myriad settings I have adjusted ...

Thank you SO MUCH for your help!!

Thanks Maxence ... yes, I've got that ... but the "3" in "C3" could mean (as I've found out recently) many different things depending on the octave numbering you use. The Sylphyo (from my examining the MIDI stream it puts out) puts out MIDI hex 3C = decimal 60 for "C3" which is Middle C. That's the same standard that Kontakt, Apple Logic, Cubase, Steinberg, and Yamaha keyboards use.

However, the ISO standard that is used by Korg, Roland, and most of the piano tuning and composing world (and also the Native flute world) use "C4" for Middle C. That's why I was always off by an octave before I understood these issues.

Cakewalk Sonar actually uses C5 for Middle C, which is really confusing!

V2 was B Stock %)

Hi Clint

looks like s design fault on the motherboard, or a faulty component. A simple solution would be a powered USB hub.

I have the link with two other USB machine in a case. Hub inside the case, one cable to the computer.

And the link is also powered without a computer

Regards

Frank

ok thanks... I'll try this way and I'll let you know

@join said in Support for high-resolution MIDI?:

Have you found a good solution for this?

Yes! For my current use - Sylphyo => Link/MIDI => Cantabile => Kontakt 6 - the facilities for drawing response curves has been the complete solution for handling this issue. This was suggested and discussed in detail in this thread on the Native Instruments forum:

https://www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/high-resolution-breath-controller.442309/

... and I have found that the flexible envelopes (drawn, rather than the table option) are a straightforward and complete solution. I have recently been using envelopes for other purposes - controlling parameters on modular synths using elevation and roll (have not tried compass yet) and that is a fantastic alternative to expression pedals.

For other scenarios that do not have the flexibility provided by Kontakt, I am not sure the solution. MIDI filters do not seem to be the answer, since they are translating MIDI to MIDI, not extending the bit depth of the MIDI stream itself.

There might also be an issues for sound libraries that are encrypted (locked) by the vendor, rendering the curve inaccessible - but I'm not sure about that.

... and Thank You @join for the amazing amount of detailed information!

You are not doing anything wrong.
The up/down buttons are only providing this next/previous feature when NOT paired with the Sylphyo. When you are using the Sylphyo this is achieved by the Sylphyo keys instead.

@Rick-Novy Thanks for the update for this. Good to hear updating fixed your issue. Let me know if you have any more questions :)

@Clint Only the Snow edition Sylphyos have a LED! The settings on the Sylphyo do not control the LED on the Link

@elusalen Great to know!
Thanks for the update and I am glad to hear that it now works well for you.

Best,

C'est une idée intéressante et ça serait en effet bien pratique. En gros, il faudrait que si le pouce arrive sur une zone ignorée, on puisse contrôler le bord haut quand le pouce se déplace dessus, sans avoir à lever le pouce, c'est ça ?
En tous cas, c'est noté et ça pourrait faire l'objet d'une amélioration dans une de nos futures mises à jour.

En attendant, peut-être qu'une façon de contourner le problème pourrait être de mettre une "Taille du pouce" plus grande pour donner plus d'espace aux zones "haut" et "bas" du slider ?

@Chris I think in this case as agreed over e-mail, it is best to send this unit back to Bax for a return.

For information this was a B-stock Sylphyo that clearly had issues before Chris got it.

Sorry for the disappointment Chris and let me know if there is anything I can help with.

@palsyl Hello and thanks for your question! The Flute Phi sound is a physical model of a flute, so is designed to sound quite similar to an acoustic flute, including the breath noise.

I will pass along your request and see what we can do.

@fluterer Hello, no you are correct the Flute Phi does not (yet!) respond to pitch bend as that had some unforeseen side effects on the sound. We are still working on that and it is part of the growing process for our new Physical Modelling sound engine.

Let me know if I can be of any more help!
