@Clint Have you considered fitting a USB rechargable fan to the Sylphyo. I was wondering what a fan at the bottom blowing up into the Sylphyo would do to the breath control... and mobility?? .. or this? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/294118356438?hash=item447ad1f5d6:g:bxkAAOSwaFNgdPGB&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoISpy1KRyutzk5ty%2BGlhSw1UmUymiC0UlovTF5gjv0ij2uEiS7xG3No%2FLjHALJx0Mu4GcyRb7wt9T7FDWgT39H5QWaDVdHVosvUO2bjPObLTBe%2B4GKbrhYHXK%2BcgEw%2BxZt4iPLl3DpmgZsgAUzk284%2B7QnuRzeAxi%2Fv8DK19SWfpAnq2VgSA0UKV1jTlAOWV6r8dN5FQl7VpVMOXnqdqNzM%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6anr9_HYQ

RE: Breath Support?
@wwoodard8 I am a flute player. The breath support is far easier on the Sylphyo. You can set the breath control to how you like it. Unless you have serious health/lung problems, I do not see any problems with breath support, it is minimal on the Sylphyo, and no special exercises are needed.... Do you own one or are you thinking of buying one? I recommend the breath adjustment kit, which gives you three options of plug sizes for the bottom end of the instrument.
I use the middle size one....cost 20 Euros... or you can make your own improvised plug... thanks -
Flute players, a real electronic flute mouthpiece is possible!
I have always wanted an electronic flute to become available. I came across this genius... Particularly interesting are his simple ideas for a real functioning electronic flute mouthpiece. I hope some company uses these ideas to come up with the first professional electronic flute.. Cheers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkaP1IJqq98. and improved https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Apv0SkPBXDA

RE: Sylphyo Bench with/without Link Controller and Mac
@ahiotis Forget the Bench software, it doesn't do much. Mine keeps crashing.... Just connect your Link to the mac using the USB power supply plug. You can use midi monitor (free to download) on your mac if you want to monitor the midi input. Logic also has midi monitor capabilities. You can still connect the outputs from the link into a mixer and hear the internal sounds. There are an infinite number of sounds you can generate using the mac, Logic, and other software.

RE: More Internal Sounds needed here!
@Laurent_AODYO Thanks for your appearance here, although not very satisfying to Sylphyo players.
As one is able to trigger an infinite number of sounds using the midi capabilities of the instrument coupled with external software, I would rather you 'bite the bullet' and concentrate on developing the new and enhanced firmware upgrade to enable new control features, software editor/backup tools etc.
To make an analogy, (forgive me) ... it is like producing the same model old car without update, but making it available in 5 new colours every couple of years....
I have demonstrated the Sylphyo to a number of interested people, who have been impressed, but the shortcomings of the instrument have been noticed....
Thanks again for all the hard work at Aodyo, please do not leave us behind. -
RE: Sylphyo won't save base settings
@Clint Exactly why we need the function to save the settings to an external device, and to restore to Sylphyo...

Aodyo settings key at top of Sylphyo
I have often inadvertently touched this button while playing, and put the Sylphyo into 'Quick Settings' mode and sometimes into 'Settings' mode. (Unless the Sylphyo is doing this itself....) Of course the Sylphyo stops responding to playing... Wondering if anyone else has this problem, and is worthwhile noting to Aodyo in future models, to have a depressible on /off / hold settings button instead? Thanks.
