      @Bernard-Béville

      Merci pour votre réponse. Vous l'aimez comme source sonore? 🙂

      @frank

      I get your thinking as I was thinking the same but then on the other hand I’m thinking that the Vl70 is similar ages to the Roland XV 😀

    • XpressO? Is it worth it?

      I’m wondering how many of you have and use the XpressO from DynaSample? And if so, what’s your thoughts?

      I exclusively play within a church setting so my need is for emulation rather than the synth/techno sounds. For year I’ve been using the Roland XV2020 which is ok but limiting

      Generally speaking the sounds I use most are
      Ethnic Flutes
      Cello
      Strings
      Celtic pipes
      Pan pipes
      Trumpet
      Pads
      I’ve never found a good clarinet or harmonica sound

    • RE: Qui utilise un bouchon / Who uses a stopper ?

      I use a pipe cleaner twisted into a T shape. You can alter the level of breath flow by twisting it tighter. Also it acts as a wick for moistureFB86B3B0-C9B0-4097-8FF3-B17BC0A13500.jpeg

    • RE: Problems with pith bend in the slider

      I had the same issue hen I first got mine and yes I too sorted it by changing the thumb size. I have set mine so that to pitch bend down I just roll my thumb down from where I naturally have it at the thumb rest of the instrument. Then if I want to pitch bend a note upward I start the note with my thumb in the roll down position and roll it back up to the thumb rest of the instrument. This seems to work well although sometimes the slider seems to loose its start setting and the pitch bend only works halfway down the slider. When this happens I lift all fingers off the sylphyo for a few seconds at the first opportunity, then carry on playing. This seems to recalibrate the setting and all is good again.

    • RE: The new Aodyo Link receiver

      Out of interest, what style of patches are you looking to include inthe link? ie, emulating instrument sounds, pads, synth?

    • RE: Sticking tone

      @gwedde

      Sorry fella I haven’t been on in a wee while so didn’t see your reply, but I’ll try and help where I can. Firstly let me say that my XV2020 has the patchman sound bank in it so I do tend to use the breath control. Unfortunately I don’t have the ability to look at my Roland settings as I’ve no computer that’s compatible with the editor for it. I regards to the BC there’s also the options tab in the Sylphyo that will also send different cc’s for volume but I tend to find it affects how the patches sound so I just stick with BC. It’ll be something to do with the settings in the Roland probably. But apart from that I’ll try and run through I’ve got the rest of the Sylphyo set up just now.
      Midi mapping;
      Breath>
      Minimum =500
      Range =2500
      Curve =linear

      Keys>
      Fingering =saxophone
      Reaction time =50ms
      More sensitive =unchecked
      Key bend =unchecked
      Key noise =unchecked

      Slider>
      Function> pitch-bend + - = checked
      Top edge> pitch bend -
      Bottom edge> pitchbend +
      Thumb size = 20

      Movement>
      Shake to move = on
      Shake to vibrato = on
      Elevation control =off
      Roll control =off

      I also tend to restrict the hole at the bell to more create what I’m used to with the sax by using a pipe cleaner as they soak up the moisture and cheap to replace. https://www.hobbycraft.co.uk/assorted-pipe-cleaners-100-pack/570321-1000?glCountry=GB&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIw8ba2bmF2QIV4r3tCh3bkQNDEAQYBCABEgKaI_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

    • RE: Budget sound module

      @gwedde

      I also use a Roland (xv2020) with the patch an patches. There’s always some on fleabay for around £120 and then just get the patches from patch man . If you can though I’d go for the Roland xv5050.

    • RE: Sticking tone

      Good morning guys. I’ve experienced this issue also after I updated to the latest os. I contacted the guys at aodyo back in July last year and they suggested decreasing the breath rate in the midi mapping section. Since then it’s been much improved . Ps I use a hardware synth (Roland xv2020).

    • Notes hanging

      I’ve had this Sylphyo now for a couple of months and really like it and I look forward to the sound card and active mouth piece. But I do have a wee issue where the notes stick (hang). For example I may play a c3 but then nothing below this will play, I can play notes above it but note below. Any ideas?
