@zikojr Yes, there will no longer be Sylphyo updates. The company has closed down yesterday due to bankruptcy.

Thanks for pointing this out, just fixed this.

We're releasing the last Anyma V update, version 1.3.0, with the following improvements:

Added new Bass Brass, Flute, Pocket Sax and Cylysax physical models.
Added new Bagpipe, Corroboree, and Overdrive guitar oscillators based on Sylphyo presets.
Added user interface scaling options.
Separated MIDI mode settings into two Mono/Poly and Legacy/MPE switches, opening the possibility of mono-legato playing using a MPE controller.
Replaced the Patch TUN.MOD parameter with a new Polyphony mode parameter, allowing you to either follow the global setting, or to force poly or mono mode.
Added MTS-ESP client support for dynamic tuning.
Singled out Morph in matrix mode presentation.
Added a Slow Envelope modulator.
Added a DETUNE parameter to the Artin X3 oscillator.
Added RT.FINE parameter to the Artin FM oscillator.
Increased the range of the Drawbar organ by one upper octave.
Fixed a bug with Delay sync in polyphonic mode.
Made the velocity envelope hard reset when a new note is played.
Added a 0 st option for the pitch-bend range.
Added 126 new patches to the factory bank (thanks to Dan Maurer for donating much of them).

We've arranged so that license activation works during the next few years. You can just use your software as usual.

We're releasing the last Sylphyo update, v1.6.0, with seven new sounds:

Bass Brass: A bass-focused acoustic trombone- and tuba-like sound based on the Brass model.
Duduk: A duduk sound with a rich and warm tone, based on the Anyma Phi Windsyo model.
Sylphinet: A clarinet-like sound with extended range.
Cylysax: A physical model of a reed instrument with hints of soprano saxophone.
Sylphoon: A reed instrument sound resembling the pocket sax.
Flutodica: A responsive flute-like tone that can be morphed into a more free-reed sound.
Melodyion: A melodica physical model that can morph into accordion-like sounds with a bass voice.

You can download the update here:

As usual, the manual is available in two languages:

User guide (EN): https://downloads.aodyo.com/sylphyo/sylphyo-userguide-en.pdf
Notice d'utilisation (FR): https://downloads.aodyo.com/sylphyo/sylphyo-userguide-fr.pdf

We'll follow up quickly with updates for Anyma Phi and Anyma V, as well as more information about the future of your products after the company ends its operations on November 1st.

We're in communication with Takács to determine the nature of the bug and try to reproduce it on our end.

They are derived from the state of the entire automation, which is 32 cells in total. The state can thus be described as a 32-bit word, which is converted to a floating-point output value (0x00000000 becoming 0%, and 0xFFFFFFFF becoming 100%).

If you haven't used your Sylphyo for a long time such as this and it wasn't fully charged to begin with, it's possible the battery is in a deep discharge state (even though it seems to indicate otherwise). Try to keep it charging during a few days, and then try again. If it still doesn't turn off, send us a mail at support@aodyo.com.

We haven't abandoned anything, but Sylphyo updates have definitely taken a backseat. That said, the synth engine in the Sylphyo is unable to run a physical model as good as SWAM woodwinds (which runs on powerful, battery-hungry computers), that's just a hardware limitation.

As you forgot the link, I'm posting it here: W. Duch - music recordings.

If I understand correctly, what you @wx-is-dead are asking is to have a setting on the Sylphyo so that breath impacts pitch-bend as well.
Would it be OK to have a single setting, or does it need to be customized for each sound?
If a single setting is OK, what settings would you need to make it work? I'm not really sure what would be needed: starting from a lower pitch up to the exact played note some breath intensity but stopping at that, or having the possibility to go higher if blowing past some point? Is it important to set the curve?
To design something that could work for you we would need the clearest and most precise description of the behavior you want you could possibly write. Don't hesitate to show videos, diagrams, and to write in Dutch and translate in English using ChatGPT or DeepL if it's easier for you, as long as it helps you be as clear and precise as possible.

@Peter-Ostry "Setting several parameters after each sound change is unacceptable. That's why I hardly ever play the internal sounds, but mostly software instruments." Do you mean that the internal sounds don't remember slider positions?
