Good find on that Demo Youtube, Dan.

Yes, my tired and good old BC3 does indeed work well with my Kurzweil. Have also kept my one remaining Yamaha keyboard around, the good old W5 fully loaded with every "extra" soundbank they sold, even though some of the sounds are rather dated today, that Breath Controller input alone justifies its existence and "earns its keep" here as well, although these days it tends to stay in the home studio while the Kurz gets to go out to gigs and party.

It is good news indeed, though, that there is an alternative available, but I do wish that it didn't have to involve usb via computer for implementation in live performance, but the laptop or the iPad now seems to be part and parcel of the stage gear.

Been checking out the "one-chip" air pressure sensors available from a few electronics vendors, there are several that were designed originally to be used as barometers, pressure sensors for automotive and other uses that look to be great candidates for the electronics experimenter to "roll their own" Breath Controllers with minimal parts count. Stay tuned.
