Pinky Spill-Over
-
Has anyone noticed that the sensitive area - the area that the Sylphyo recognizes a touch - is larger for the two pinky pads than the other fingers?
Specifically, on mine, the sensitive area for the pinky pads seem to extend up above the two pinky pads, wrapping up towards the top centerline of the instrument.
Not an issue (at all!) but just a observation and ... I'm curious ...
Have others seen this behavior??

Hi Clint, I confirm I had the same finding. Indeed, it is an interesting feature (pinky pads might be found a bit too aside the row.

Agreed!
I do find my fingers dragging a bit and occasionally activating those pads unintentionally.
With 6-hole wooden flutes, we are always advising students to get their pinkys onto the body of the flute for added stability, and this is now the opposite ... -
For me it's not enough "spill-over" and i did a mod in my flute (i made a post about that).

@jcfitn I followed your method and it works really well for me. A strip of Al foil and a piece of tape ... that's all!
