I expected much more So far I am not very impressed and I am disappointed that I did not wait and get the Tec controller instead. The design is lacking in some very basic ways. For example, you have to plug in a mini stereo cable (not supplied) and disconnect the unit from the USB power any time you want to change its configuration. This is can really stifle a creative workflow. Why on earth could they not have written a utility to facilitate adjusting the response curve and the controller configuration…
Amazing! Super cool breath controller! ðð¶ð¶ð¶ Works well with my Yamaha MOXF8 synthesizer. I’ve tried it with brass (trumpet and trombone), woodwinds (sax mainly), and strings. What I like is that it connects directly to you keyboard and does not need to be intricately set up with your DAW on your computer. That said, it is basically a volume controller synced to your breath and does not allow for modulation based upon your bite on the mouthpiece, but if you’ve got a modulation wheel on your keyboard you can insert great inflections…
It perfectly works fine with my Yamaha MOX 8 synthesizer. I even didn’t need to set up when I connected it with MIDI cable and USB cable and I could play like a horn player! I’m really happy to purchase this because it’s way more natural and sensitive than volume pedal that I’ve used for dynamic expression and it can be used for strings and pads too. You can also change amount of pressure on breath mouth piece if you turn little bit. Headset is little bit tight to me, so I just took down left…
