Episode 003
We've all experienced the challenge of mastering new instruments, and wind controllers are no exception, offering a plethora of fingering systems to suit any player. From standardised saxophone and EWI fingerings to the customisable fingerings that streamline playability, this episode peels back the layers of complexity behind these fascinating devices. Compare various models, like the Roland Aerophone range as well as Yamaha, Akai and many others, and join us as we help you discover the options from personalising fingerings to emulating the intricate sounds of acoustic instruments.

There's our usual news features and our regular track of the month recommendations, this time featuring Nyle Steiner and Tom Scott.

As we wrap up, we set the stage for an enthralling next episode focused on the art of emulating acoustic instruments. Get ready to unlock the potential of your wind controller, and let this episode be the guide you never knew you needed.
