Thanx all for listening and the encouraging comments.

Mac, that is exactly what I’m doing, i.e. slowly running scales. I feel that I have set up the EWI-USB to fit my playing style so now it’s just practice time.

Gene – thanx for listening and the comments. I used this piece as an aid for setting up the EWI-USB to match my playing style. I understand the redundancy comment and I am practicing.

Mick, I knew I wasn’t going to be an “instant success” with this instrument. I’ve played trumpet in the past so I chose this wind controller because it had brass fingerings. This is similar to trumpet fingering but not exactly the same and the playing technique is totally different. I’m viewing this adventure as learning a brand new instrument. It will be months, if not years, before I’m proficient at this. But I WILL succeed. Why? Because this wind controller makes my sax/horn samples sound much more realistic than I can accomplish using either my keyboard or my guitar midi controller.

Thanx for the patchman site. Years ago I purchased some Yamaha TX81Z discs and some Kawai K1M disc from him. It was nice to see that he still is in business.

I got banned from Weight Watchers for dropping a bag of M&Ms on the floor.
It was the best game of Hungry Hippos I've ever seen!
