@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

@wwoodard8 said in Double note:

I'll try the velocity as 1. (BTW, why 1?

We would like to set 0 but this gets interpreted as note-off.
Velocity 1 is the least evil.

@wwoodard8 said in Double note:

My assumption is that synths built especially for wind synths will just totally ignore velocity

Well, the synth needs the start of the note and that comes with velocity greater than zero. And it needs the end of the note. However, synths made for windcontrollers should not make sound with velocity 1 while most other synths do. Actually a dedicated wind synth should not sound without the "sound event" it is prepared for (i.e. CC2). But since we seldom know what a synth exactly does internally, we set the velocity as low as possible.

Working with CC2 should be the default setting for a dedicated wind synth, but this can usually be changed to another CC number or Channel Pressure, just to be usable with different input devices and settings.

It is true, Clint, that when we suggest something in development, I do not measure the amount of work that this represents for for example Aodyo.
By cons I measure very well the work that the creation of Anyma Phy or Omega represents. And I deduce that Aodyo now privileges the creation of Synthe rather than the development of Sylphyo.
I reopen the debate but what interests me is that the Sylphyo becomes better rather than buying another synth ...

@Paul-Flute Cool! Modifying the Sylphyo is a lot of fun :)

This just points out one of the fantastic benefits of breath synth instruments.

With acoustic flutes the holes have to be in a very specific position, therefore your fingers have to conform to the dictates of physics.

With a breath synth instrument however, you can put the sensors for the finger anywhere you want, in any configuration. You can make the instrument conform to your fingers' best natural positions, making articulating over the instrument much easier. (Copper tape helps in this!)

@Clint That's good to hear!

BTW - if anyone is interested, I asked Aodyo support what kind of charger would work. And this is the reply I received.

Dear Will,

Thank you for your email.
Sorry for the confusion with the power adapter.
You should have had a US adapter.

Yes, a 5W type iPhone adapter should work.

I remain available if you have any other questions.

Best regards.

So there you go!

@reidid789 I think you're right. I've done everything humanly possible...
