Anyone now much about this "new" instrument?
I recently found out about it and is curious into purchasing one.
Does it play the same as a recorder?
I have no idea of how it works etc. So if anyone knows how much it costs or anything about it, please post below.


Here's a fine example of it.

Watching the video, it looks like a triple combo of a flute, clairinet, and a sax. I love the sound it makes. I agree in purchasing one if it's cheap (which it's probabally not!) I'm sure in the next few months it gonna become popular.

This looks very interesting.

Pretty neat instrument, but I don't like the person who's playing it in that video. I checked out other people, even some jazz musicians, who are playing it-- it looks real practical, actually. :)

so its like a keyboard version for wind players. i have never played any wind instrument so i wouldnt know what to do with it if i did get it xD
looks like alot of fun lol

No. It's a synthesizer wind instrument.

As a self-profound odd and rare instruments collector...

I MUST HAVE!

Very interesting to see a wind electronic instrument. From looking at it, I don't know whether it plays like a clarinet (reed) or a recorder. I'll give you all the details when (if) I get one:lol: But yeah, doesn't exactly look cheap.....

Just from looking at the video, fingering patterns seem a lot easier to do on that, but seems more saxophone-clarinetty-recordery over flute. I'm curious to know its range.

Reminds me of "when Vocaloid meets instruments" because of the video-game-midi sound it produces XD
