All PATCHMAN MUSIC wind controller
soundbanks have been programmed specifically to be controlled with a wind
controller such as the Roland Aerophone Pro AE-30, AE-20, AE-10, AE-05, Yamaha WX5,
WX7, WX11, WindJamm'r, Akai EWI5000, EWI
USB, EWI SOLO, EWI4000S,
EWI4000sw, EWI3020, EWI3000, EWI1000, or EVI1000, Nyle Steiner's MIDI
EVI or EWI, MDT,
Berglund NuEVI, NuRAD, Aodyo Sylphyo, Lekholm DM48, Softwind Synthophone, WARBL, and others.
Keyboardists can also enjoy these highly expressive sounds
by using various breath controllers such as the TEControl breath controllers, or Yamaha BC1/BC2/BC3/BC3a breath controllers plugged
into a synth equipped with a breath controller input or into
a device such as the MIDI
Solutions Breath Controller Box or Anatek Wind Machine (the Wind Machine is no longer in production). The Yamaha
BC3a was the most recent Yamaha breath controller. The MIDI
Solutions Breath Controller Box and Anatek Wind Machine are
small, pocket-sized boxes that have a MIDI IN and OUT and a breath
controller input jack. They allow you to merge breath controller
data into the MIDI signal. Keyboardists can also assign a knob, mod wheel, or foot pedal on their keyboard to send MIDI CC#2 (or in certain Korg banks- MIDI Aftertouch) to enjoy the incredible expression of these sounds.
PATCHMAN MUSIC is a leading third party sound design company and dealer of wind controller products. We offer over 800 soundbanks for Akai, Alesis, Apple, Bitheadz, Casio, Ensoniq, Korg, Kurzweil, Native Instruments, Propellerhead, Oberheim, Roland, Studio Electronics, and Yamaha synthesizers and samplers. PATCHMAN MUSIC sounds are all usable, unique, hand-crafted, and original. Caring, human attention is given to each patch. We never add "filler" patches.

You can be sure these wind controller and breath controller sounds are extremely usable and of the highest
quality. A great deal of time has gone into making these soundbanks
as expressive as possible. No programming is needed; simply load
them into your synth and you're ready to go!
Whenever possible, PATCHMAN MUSIC wind controller soundbanks have been set-up to respond
to breath controller data (MIDI Continuous Controller CC#2). However,
some synths and samplers, particularly some Korg synths, are
not able to respond to breath controller data directly. In these
cases, we have set up the patches to respond fully to aftertouch
data instead. Since the Korg 05R/W, iM1, M1, M1 Legacy Edition, M3R, T1, T2, T3, and
X5D/X5DR are not capable of responding to breath controller, those
soundbanks have been set up to respond fully to your breath expression
by using aftertouch data. The Yamaha WX5, WX11, and WindJamm'r
are NOT capable of transmitting aftertouch data. If you are using
one of these controllers with one of the above Korg synths, you
will need to use a device such as the MIDI
Solutions Event Processor, Anatek Pocket Mapper, MIDI
Solutions Breath Controller Box, or Anatek Wind Machine to
remap breath controller data into aftertouch data. Email Matt at matt@patchmanmusic.com for more info.
Casio DH-100 / DH-200 OWNERS TAKE NOTE: Since our Korg 05R/W, M1, M1 Legacy Edition, iM1, M3R, T1, T2, T3, and X5DR sounds are set up to respond fully to aftertouch data, they work GREAT with the Casio DH Series horns such as the DH-100 and DH-200. If you wish to use the Casio Horn with our other banks that are set up to respond to breath controller data (MIDI Continuous Controller #2), then you will need a MIDI mapper to map the Casio's Aftertouch data into Breath Controller data. For this, we recommend the MIDI Solutions Event Processor.
PATCHMAN MUSIC wind controller patches (except 05R/W, iM1, M1, M3R, M1 Legacy Edition, T1, T2, T3, & X5DR Volumes) are usually designated with an asterisk (*) preceding the name for easy identification. The 05R/W, iM1, M1, M1 Legacy Edition, M3R, T1, T2, T3, & X5D/X5DR wind controller soundbanks use the "@" in front of the name to indicate "aftertouch".
Mono-mode patches are used when appropriate. All patches respond naturally and "feel right". You are going to love playing them! Loading instructions are included with every wind controller soundbank.
