Or would I prefer the VL70-m? At a first glance, I would preferr the SD2 because it appears to be "general purpose"... What is your oppinion? Hi Luiz, Just checked the manual for the SD2 in order to be sure. NO BREATH CONTROL parameters listed at all. Check out Yamaha synths, many of the older ones had a Breath controller input jack on the front of the keyboards and many also worked with Wind Controllers. Maybe the code is still there inside some of the newer offerings, even though they no longer have the physical input jack on them as well. --Mac PGmusic FAQs, Tutorials and Updates! click here You must be Audiominds. www.audiominds.com

Although I do not have a SD2 this has worked for me on all of my other synths. My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not. 64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Also have the Yamaha breath transducer that I use with the Motif classic (first saw it being used by Eric Clapton's keyboard player using a Motif classic on the 24 nights concert DVD). I use the rack Motif ES with the Motif classic as well as my synth guitars. With the after-touch and other nuances you can get with the Motifs, some pretty realistic sounds can be achieved, including breath nuances, chirps, growls, etc. (my son is an accomplished musician who also plays sax, flute, clarinet, guitar and drums). He and others were impressed. The VL-70 is a nice unit and I've heard some impressive results from that via other musicians. Richard

I don't know about the EWI. The synth you use will have variable results with cc11. Some just change the volume, which is fine for some patches, others change the timbre along with the volume, this is ideal for emulating most acoustic or acoustic/electric instruments. Whenever you use a wind synth, you also need to know how to tweak synth patches if you want to get the most out of your gear. I can't program a VL70m voice from scratch, but I definitely can tweak all the parameters to get it to do what I want.
