  • What did you connect from Geko to SampleModeling in terms of cc's. I like what you did! I have a LeapMotion unit that I bought just to play with and since I play the EWI, both hands are tied up. I had a notion that I could somehow wave the EWI …

  • I have been using the CME WIDI with the EWI 4000s, and works great. However, it is a bit big, and when stuck to the side of the EWI with Velcro, not too attractive, but does the job. I too was hoping that the USB "B" port on the receiver of the…
  • Except that you cannot buy Stradivari any longer from any source. So, what is the point of mentioning?
  • Seems bad to hijack this thread discussing a rival product, but since SM has no strings, I suppose it is OK... Question for the Friedlander users here - do you use it for live playing or recording. I find that using the Kontakt based VST or AU …
  • Reporting back... after playing with the settings this weekend, I would say it is "usable but not fantastic" for a wind controller player (EWI). If you are a keyboard player, your mileage may vary. I am glad that I have it though since SM is not lik…

  • I think SM is busy with the woodwinds now, which have been in the works (starting with Oboe). Strings seem to be in the plans for some future release, but I seriously don't expect to see it for at least another year or so, given the pace of their re…

  • I think the Samplemodeling team has already revealed their hand, in the contest they just ran. Looks like the next one will be double-reeds (Oboe, etc.).
  • Method #2 does sound a bit iffy to me, but it could work with practice I suppose. I have done something a bit different, which is to bite down on the mouth sensor a little bit, and then shake the EWI up and down. This can produce a pleasing vibrato,…
  • Hi, Dan! Thanks for your kind words. Yes, Persian classical music has some similarities with Hindustani (North Indian) Classical music, which has many similarities with Carnatic (South Indian) classical music. There is a continuum as there were…
  • I am not seeing anything wrong with your settings at all. You could try turning of Breath CC2 (just leave it to Breath Control Coarse, and no secondary control). See if that helps.
  • Well, not everyone is looking for ensemble sounds from solo instruments! I have ZERO interest in this, which is why different folks need different instruments. I would, of course, like to see flutes and double reeds as well, but would definitel…
  • The original post is now over 2 years ago. So, just wondering if there is any progress on the Strings front. Perhaps it is more difficult than anticipated?
  • Hi, there! I am SOOO happy to see another person with interest in Carnatic music posting on this forum! I was thinking I was the only nut case I know the current crop of synths are not perfect for Carnatic music. But, there is a lot of fun t…
