Wind Synths:__________________________________________________________________
Yamaha WX5 Wind Controller, VL70M Tone Generator.
Looks like a Clarinet. Same fingering as a Tenor Sax. Spitdrips on
your shoes like a Sax too! The Yamaha patches (voices) are good,but
the best VL-70 sounds come from a 3rd party - Patchman. Pitchbending
with lips and right thumb. Octave switching with left thumb (7
octaves). It does a great job with Alto and Tenor Sax and trumpet.My favorite sounds are:
Pat Metheny lead guitar
Stand up bass
Synth Strings (sounds like an ARP Pro Soloist with the string setting)
Taurus Bass PedalsMichael Brecker plays Tenor Sax and Wind Synth. (The Hendrix ofthis
digital Musical Instrument ?) Audiences are a bit stunned whenthey
hear Taurus bass pedal sounds coming out of his Clarinet thing!Clay
Hi Clay and Gang, Patrick Moraz used an awesome 8-voice
dual keyboard Oberheim atop his MK-V during the Moodies' years.
Wonder if he still has it.....Speaking of MK-V, Novatron #104 was recently refurbed inside
and soon will be in the hands of its new owner. Future MONEYPIT
Website with Ken Leonard pending.....like in the future pending......Cheers, Mr. Pat Pending
