Technical remarks: I play recently mostly Sylphyo by Aodyo, and also
AkaiPro-EWI instruments (4000s, 5000 and EWI-USB), with some analog voices from Patchman, Yamaha VL70m synthesizer with
Patchman Turbo voices,
Ketron SD2 and SD1000 modules and various software virtual instruments on EWI-USB.
In 2022 I have added DynaSample XpressO-mini synth.
All 3 banks for
Ketron SD2,
4 banks for
Ketron SD1000
and 2 banks for Yamaha VL70m Turbo,
in the .mlb format (ex. for Anvil Studio), needed to use these modules with EWI.
MIDI-OX can control Ketron and other synth, select favorities and assign parameters to different MIDI channels. After trying large DAW programs I gave up - too complicated and not doing what I need. For Ketron SD1000 with MIDI-OX use
this instrument definition.
Sample of Ketron SD2 sounds of all Bank A instruments (large).
I plan also record more sample from other banks and from the DynaSample XO-mini synth. 15 flute voices are in videos below.
I also use solo SWAM instruments from Audio Modeling.
I have placed a few demos of sax and trumper sounds
on audio.com.
Adding pads from Omnisphere creates nice backgrounds, and there are hundreds of pads and other voices to explore.
My presets for Sax Alto Classical and
Sax Tenor Classical are nothing special, I am still experimenting with paramters, and there are quire many, but most have very subtle influence on the sound. We need a community of people thta have created intersting presets. I have a list of YouTube videos on SWAM with some advice.
Deleted: My concert in the Toruń City Hall, 13.06.2013 (Bach, Debussy, Beatles, a bit of jazz and improvisations). Integrated guitar amplifier with speaker was not suited for EWI but I could not get better sound system in this hall.
1109-Clarinet musings on EWI-USB with Aria clarinet, look what was in my head! I had no idea until I've started to play. And I stopped out of pity for the listners ...
