Except for the lowest and highest octave i never lift my thumb, always slide.
I have a history with windcontrollers, Yamaha and Akai Ewi , and sliding is always the good option. Ewi has rollers, making it a easier than the Yamaha. Sylphyo is best, except for the screw , but one gets quickly used to that.

Many times i have portamento on: not to cover glitches, but rather to get a nice pitch bend up to the actual note. Making up a bit for the missing mouth controlled pitch bend. The length of the slur depends on the previous note. One can create a longer slur by quickly tapping a (much) lower octave. It is a pity not all internal sounds have portamento enabled.
I did not check yet if one can switch portamento on via midi input: would be lovely.

Sure needs practise to learn how to slide fast , but thet is part of the game

Thanks! I expected to see you live on stage! At least it was responsable for a melodic line ..

Many times i see that the USB does not connect properly: a computer problem. Unplugging the USB and pluggin reconnects. My midi (din) connection to another device is always there.

I use two computers : windows 10 and Mac. Windows disconnects slightly more than Apple. And it is just not the Syllink, other usb midi devices show the same behaviour. Other devices like keyboard, HDU i never notice this.

Sorry i cannot offer a solution except use DIN Midi

Hi ghostdic

You can like Maxence said, and how is not very obvious in the manual
How can be found in the section getting started
https://www.aodyo.com/user-manual-page-en-21.html#section-getting-started.default-mappings

Look for the section quick settings : you will get at quick setting bij pressing the aodyo symbol at the front.
Now press and hold the highest key at the back, and now one can change the base key with the Increase and decrease keys ( D settings key)

Once you have tried, you will wonder why you have not seen it before, it is that simple

@Daniel57

Merci Daniel pour la compliment!

I think it is better not to separate the forum into languages. Better put the question in ones native language, and maybe an effort to put it in any common language.

Thanks for translating : i updated my French a bit

Back to my Sylphyo + with Respiro
My favourite internal sound now is 26 : Breathed on Bach

I feel this forum we should use to share idea's about playing a wind instrument and which tone generators one uses. i see Sylphyo and Respiro : S and Tonegenerator X , Sylphyo and VL70 more interesting. No doubt there will be animo to help each other

Kind Regards

Frank
Dutch : Kiswahili abit of German a bit of French

From the manual : Cleaning the Sylphyo

Cher Bernard
je crois que la Sylphyo est a EVI , choisis EWI en pas de probleme.

je ne parle Francais plus. On peut repondre en Francais, je peut lire.

@Friedus

To me it looks like a broken connector: just try another USB cable:

Look into the usb connector: maybe one of the prongs is bent.

did you try the cable which shos it charges from the computer ?

@Daniel57

Hi Daniel

with the update it went one position down From EWI to Evi

You used EWI like me: and Friedus alredy put it back to EWI

Typing mistake I guess
