Very nice sample modeling is the way of the future for all sample based synths not just wind. The key to a great sounding sample based sound is layers and articulations intuitively mapped to be controlled like a real instrument.The more accurately they record and program these samples the more layers the more realism and expression possiblilies.
Bernie your videos are great. They are a great resource and inspiration to any one getting to EWI. I plan on buying the Mr Sax stuff myself. I was wondering if it is possible to get into the overtone like sounds, reed stuff, and other FX. I see your doing it a bit in the video, is that the max you can push it or can it go farther?
@Sax121Man You can't get them "on" your EWI4000s. You would have to hook your EWII4000s up to a computer loaded with "Mr. Sax" and then use a MIDI/USB interface between the ewi and computer. Or just buy an EWIUSB.
@berniesax56 can you play with EWI 4000s with Mr Sax without pluging it to the computer? I mean can you load Mr Sax first onto EWI so you could play EWI without coputer and wireless
I love the sound of the Mr. Sax series. I'm thinking about getting the Yamaha WX5 though. Though, it's more expensive, it supports vibrato, which I love to use. And vibrato is, most times, essential with woodwind playing, save for clarinet =P
@sschafi1 you can do vibrato with the EWI USB and EWI 4000s. You can also do pitch bends and fall offs too. These are serious electronic instruments with a ton of expressive possibilities.
EWI is indeed a nice instrument, Thumb it up! :D

Very nice, lovely tone and control, makes me want to get one.
Do you need to midi map the EWI to Mr Sax, or is it already pre-mapped?
Thanks!
