@Peter-Ostry sorry didn't write clearly. the biggest weak point of the sylphio is that sound speed is too slow,....
especially if not using the preset sounds... they react faster. the respiro is slow in attack reaction (there the "speed" is super important some ms already kill the funk/the timing)
the pitch reaction with some "delay"... really no problem to me.
@Peter-Ostry ha peter maybe i'm not clear. the sylphio can translate flutists playtechnique (vibrato) to expressive sound / pitch message. listen to:
https://soundcloud.com/tilo-baum/19-08-23-vcv-respiro-2
there I used the possibility in "respiro" to translate breath control to pitch variation (+/- even 0.4 steps at 0 respectively 127)
but respiro reacts so slow on the other hand the preset sounds are so much faster.
but I really regret that there is preset vibrato in a lot of the sounds and that the air vibrato can't effect any pitch...
and off cours I do not wanna recreate a flute..
I wanna amplify the expression possibility of sylphio. and I'm shur I could If I had contact with devellopers
@Peter-Ostry oh and i forgot: this advice to study the sylphio as it is and not to fantasize about its possibilities is a way of looking at the world that does not fit to me. i'm always in search of maximal expression. and especially using technical possibilities to program against repetition of same acoustic events
@Peter-Ostry hey I hear you. yes I mainly play the phy and the respiro (for that reason). instruments where I can get the expressiveness i search. but as it is a very simple controle connection (which is also in the phy in the FIRST ROW of the editor) i hoped to get people who sit in the preset sounds to read my comment.
there are some selected controle connections selectable in the sylphio. like pad to pitch. and off course shake on/off etc
because let's be honest all external synties triggered by sylphio are way too slow to be played rhymically. i hoped to get these preset sounds more lifely
and yes i'm a professional flute player. my airstream expression is trained in 100 000s of hours..
and lets be honest the airstream expression is what makes a wind player a wind player.
i'm courious if there will be someone prctising shaking vibrato in the slurr of 2 notes.... look at workshops where nicolet is explaining that study for flute and breath vibrato....
an exercise every professional is spending multiple hours per week
Hey k0872,
From which year is yours Sylphio?
Is it the newest (hardware) version the 2?
Then i'd like to check him(?).
And would, if ok, pay like
600..
@Peter-Ostry yep off course the shake vibrato is effecting pitch......
BUT
flutists have their "treined" expression in the airstream. And the airstream vibrato on the preset sounds is really not expressive (to flutists) because the pitch componente is missing.
Flute players (like me) play expressive vibrato with their air pressure/amount.
In real flute thae effects:
A the volume
B the pitch
C colour
When programming for the anima phy i use the breath control to pitch change which makes "my" sounds so much more lifely than the presets in the sylphio.
On my sylphio the sounds are all double...
would it be possible to do one set with the BC to pitch sensitivity?
or to put in the software a possibility to switch on this correlation and the amount od pitch change.
in a recorder this pitch change in vibrato can go up to 1/2 note
@wx-is-dead
I'm the one who did the recordings and the sound programming/adaptations and...
I live in Amsterdam and would love to get in contact with other Sylphyo player for experiance exchange...
share do's and donts
@paul-flute yes... didn't know how to upload that amount of files in an other way. they will be there until saturday. cause i have the free account.
