@peter-ostry That wonderfully clears things up ... thank you for the info!

@dr-vibes1 You can use the empty patch currently #35 which allows you to send midi data without sending any audio.

@milododds I am now getting decent volume both through the headphones and speaker. I wish I knew exactly what I did to fix that particular sub-issue but it's now sounding amazing. I am now learning how every control within the Matrix effects the sound. So far "Tuning" is my favorite. I still have much to learn but I don't feel lost or frustrated any longer. I hope that my post helps anyone who might be trying to use a non-compatible keyboard. Case closed.

@bibenu
Thanks, got it!

@relevart71
I also got a broken power supply cable. A continuity test showed that the ground wire was not connected between the USB and the barrel. Aodyo will send me a replacement cable.

@support_aodyo So that is #35: Silent (MIDI Ctrl) ... I am guessing ...

@bibenu fixed in latest update https://community.aodyo.com/topic/753/anyma-phi-v0-8-90-pre-release-update

@join Confirmed fixed by latest update https://community.aodyo.com/topic/753/anyma-phi-v0-8-90-pre-release-update

@join Thank you. That answers two of my questions: “what is Artin” and “which is the MI stuff”. ;)

@paul-flute Just to be clear, I didn't step in because the 48 hour charge cycle would have been my recommendation ! Happy to hear it worked :)

If you plug a microphone or an instrument into the LINE IN port, its sound will replace that of the internal piezo behind the case, and will be used as well in the Piezo Pling patch. Can you get any sound with this method?

@support_aodyo Thank you

@sleep-totem There is no way to configure the pitch bend range at the moment but we are working on it and it should be a feature in an upcoming update!

To delete a mapping you can simply select the source as "none". I hope this helps.

A way of sending/receiving a SysEx dump of the settings could be possible in the future…

@support_aodyo bonjour, merci je vais essayer ! Et aussi avec une DI en inversant la terre.

@join
I can wait, just wanted to know.
Thank you very much!

@paul-flute Hi Paul, the Sylphyo does not contain the listed chemicals phtalates, DEHP or BPA. The Sylphyo body is made from ABS plastic with a V0 treatment for uninflammability. The mouthpiece is made from food-grade ABS plastic. The Sylphyo has also been approved by the FCC. You can find the documentation for this online.

@paul-flute

No problem here with Sylphyo and Link (Mac mini M1)

Bench software does not run, I already deleted it.
If I remember right, it is made with Max 7. I don't need bench, but maybe
someone could take the original and upgrade the application to Max 8?

@paul-flute Good to hear Paul! Thanks for the feedback and I'm happy we could solve your problem. Let me know if there is anything else!

For the record: the Sylphyo mentioned above was returned to Aodyo for a checkup. I got it back in March, and while the functional issues were solved, there was still a problem with the fit of the outer casing: the upper half of the bell doesn't quite match the bottom. Bax has sent me another Sylphyo as a replacement, which appears to work fine. It has the same problem with the bell though.

@peter-ostry These are placeholders! You can use them as you would the normal sounds or you can just ignore them. They get progressively replaced as we add new sounds to the Sylphyo and are essentially there to fill the empty slots. It can also be convenient when for example switching from sound 34 back to sound 1, you can just switch over to sound 36 instead.

@support_aodyo
Ne lâchez pas le morceau ! Et bon courage à vous.

@peter-ostry Thanks for the clarification ... I had made some unfounded assumption as to how it was designed to work.

My main performance DAW is Cantabile, which has a massive set of MIDI filtering, mapping, and munging tools - I can massage pretty much any MIDI stream into what I want (Sysex excepted).

@clint Thank you for catching that !

@support_aodyo Yes, I think I was too early with narrow thumb space. It takes a while to handle that.

@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
