Power Supply 220 V (!!!) - standard IEC C8 connector
Connectors 1/4 Jack (output, headphones, input) Original 5pin DIN connector (pedal, cable included)
Condition Fully operational. Professional maintenance service was performed: (fixed, recapped, lubricated, fully tuned and calibrated). Cosmetic condition is near mint, seems that synth has never been used.
Package contents 1. Synth 2. Original cutoff pedal with cable 3. Power supply cord 4. Original case 5. Set of documentation"
The Yamaha WX5 Wind MIDI Controller takes wind MIDI control to new levels of performance and playability. With precise, responsive wind and lip sensors, a choice of single-reed or recorder type mouthpieces, and a range of fingering modes, the WX5 makes expressive wind control more accessible than ever before. The WX5 gives experienced wind players a new medium and vastly expanded sonic possibilities in a familiar format, playable enough for beginners.
The WX5 provides expressive control and nuances that are simply not available with keyboards or other MIDI controllers. Although it is ideal for use with just about any MIDI tone generator or synthesizer, combined with a state-of-the-art tone generator such as the Yamaha VL70m Virtual Acoustic Tone Generator, the WX5 is capable of expressive depth and tonal subtlety that rivals the finest acoustic instruments.
"Apologies that this is a bit long and self indulgent, I was having way to much fun here. This is something I've been meaning to try for a while, running the Volca Modular through the Korg Ms10 via a prototype breadboard. I don't have a modular system (yet) but it turns out this is a great way to have some fun. The Modular and the Ms10 are from totally different eras obviously and don't even appear to be compatible. The Ms10 uses the Hz/V for it's oscillators and S-Trigger to trigger it's envelope, meaning when the input receives a ground pulse it is triggered. The Volca Modular uses it's own weird 0.5v/Oct pitch standard so CV from the VM to the Ms10 is not possible, and uses the more conventional triggering method of positive pulses triggering it's envelopes. Luckily though connecting the output pulse of Function 1 is completely reversed and is a gate not a trigger so will even preserve note length so this is used to trigger the Ms10 envelope. The Volca Modular can convert incoming voltages into it's standard but that does not include the Hz/V standard unfortunately, so I'm just running the audio out into the Ms10 and using the raw oscillator outputs as audio rate modulators. Also we can use the noise output routed to the VM as a noise source.
So the top 2 sections of the video were recorded at the same time along with the sync out from the VM into Reaper. I then recorded the bottom 2 sections while the sync pulse plays back into the VM so it all syncs up.
In the top half I'm running audio to the Ms10's input from the VM, triggering the envelope from the VM's Function 1 which controls the envelope routed to the filter. The noise output on the Ms10 is fed back to the VM and i'm using the LFO output on the Ms10 to control the length of Function 2.
The bottom half of the video has the output of LPG1 routed to control the filter which gives us some tasty filter FM. Also the raw output of one of the VM's source oscillators is routed to the oscillator frequency also giving some nasty sounding FM tones. Additionally I have a modded Fab Echo pedal set up which is a pretty cool delay, much nicer than the stock echo it used to make.
I'm sure there's much more to explore here so this will probably pop up again soon I imagine. Once I've fully explored this I'll make a tutorial. I imagine this would work on an Ms20 too.
Life blog bit: I had my first Astra Zeneca jab yesterday and it was pretty nasty. I got the jab at 4.30pm, went to bed at 11.30pm shivering uncontrollably then woke up feeling like I'd been beaten with hammers all night. It took until about 11.00am until I had the energy to get up and I'm still not quite right at 3.30pm the day after. Apparently the second dose is worse. Not looking forward to it now!"
Update: this post originally went up on Apr 16, 5:02 PM. The video was set to private shortly after. A new video (above) went up today. Moving this post up for those that missed it.
"Ambient song using pipe organ, modular moog, Juno & jp8000 as well as an electribe wave on ipad.
Visuals and song title come from an old practice of using paints and oils on an overhead projector. I do have video of my bandmate and I doing this recently but I wanted to have a digital in sync version for this track.
Fugue Machine is controlling the synths but setup with each playhead going to a different synth. The 1st playhead of the first instance of two fugue machines controls sunrizer (forward playhead, divided by 8) with the preset: AI- Chime Era, gain down a bit and release up a bit. The 2nd playhead controls korg electribe wave (reverse playhead, divided by 4 and octave lower) preset 12 sin width add decay and release times. The 3rd playhead controls Talunolx synth (forward then reverse, diveded by 16 and -1 pitch) preset FN-Analog Lead- FN. The 4th playhead controls Moog Model 15 (reverse then forward, divided by 8 and 1 octave higher) preset fx birds The second instance of fugue machine is a duplicate copy of the first instance with some notes removed but the other setting are the same as the 1st fugue machine. All 4 playheads control icathedral organ preset mixtur Brilliance
Sunrizer gets cloud reverb set to the max Electribe Wave gets mixbox Chorus pad preset (some altering) Talunolx & Model 15 get mixbox Boards of Italy preset (some alteriing) Icatherdral get mixbox Piano Friendly Widener
