Wow, Clint, you are reading my mind!

What exactly are your symptoms? In other words, what problems are being caused?

For my part, I'll notice a bubbling sensation. It's weird, but it doesn't seem to affect the tone in any way. Because of that I suspect the problem is happening at the bottom tube plug - water gathers and fills the little hole of the plug.

What I've done in this case is to always have two plugs and two mouthpieces and swap them out when one gets too wet. But I'm panicked that I'll drop the tube plug and it will get lost on a dark stage!

I mean, this kind of thing has always been a problem with wind players (as I'm sure you know), Usually, people don't mind taking a break while someone swabs out their instrument.

Would also be worried about blowing the thing down the tube, but "nary a drop" sounds really good :)

Search "hydrophilic" on Amazon and you get something else that might work - here

For those of you who have come to the Sylphyo from other wind instruments, what do you find are the differences in the way you provide breath support?

Is it as generally important on the Sylphyo as it is on "real" wind instruments? In what ways is it different? Do you have any wind synth specific breath support exercises you do?

Thanks!

@Gromit Ah, well, interesting. I would really like a bite controller :)

Wait, what? What is this interesting "dynamic mouthpiece" of which you speak? :)

@Clint Ah, now this is good info! I'll try the velocity as 1. (BTW, why 1? My assumption is that synths built especially for wind synths will just totally ignore velocity...)

@Clint Well, looks like the "re-pair" repaired my problem :) Everything is flowing smoothly now!

@Clint Thanks again, Clint! I'll go through this and let you know...

@Clint Yes, dynamic.

Looking into this further, it seems like there are no double notes if I am connected with the cable. Maybe my Link is not connecting securely? I'll try to reset it and see what that does.

Thanks for the reply!

I have noticed recently that every so often I get a repeated note. I don't think I have somehow stopped blowing, moved my fingers, etc. Here's a midi dump of what happens -

Notice the A#3 plays, stops, then plays again.

This only happens intermittently, but is irritating. I've worked with all the settings I can think of, but none seem to make this go away.

Has anyone else seen this behavior? Any idea of how to avoid it?

Thanks!

@Clint Haha!
