What the title says. I’m completely new to this and I’d like to get a good versatile synth that I can pair with the Akai EWI 5000. Seen very good things about the Sequential TEO-5, but always paired with a keyboard. (Also there’s a used one for sale for a very good price near me which is why I’m looking at that one specifically)
So I just want to know if the TEO-5 is compatible with the EWI 5000. Don’t see why it wouldn’t be but like I said, I’m completely new to this so I wanted to double check.

Looking to buy a replacement mouthpiece for my AKAI EWI USB. Ideally looking for just the rubber part but if there isn't any available i can get the full mouthpiece. I checked Patchman but they only have the full mouthpiece which is kinda expensive. Theres one on Amazon but idk if its reliable. Please point me to anywhere you would recommend.

It’s called Ikal. The concept uses 10 finger pads, two thumb controls for octave changes and a pressure sensor for breath expression. It would include internal sounds, a speaker, headphones and BLE-MIDI.

I already have the electronics on a custom PCB, while the enclosure is still being refined and 3D printed. Nothing is for sale and I’m not taking preorders. I’m just trying to understand whether musicians genuinely want something like this.

The idea is to have a poket size instrument, that don't have to be connected to a computer to work, with a lot of synth sound opitons and some samples sounds.

Would you use it? What would your main use case be, and what would make you lose interest?

Pitch bending? Ya/no?
