OUTSIDE THE USA?: PATCHMAN MUSIC DOES NOT SHIP GEAR OUTSIDE THE USA - NO EXCEPTIONS! If you live outside the USA and wish to order a Yamaha product, you will need to have someone in the USA order AND PAY FOR the gear for you (credit cards/checks must be based in the USA). If this is not possible, then please contact a Yamaha dealer in your country or Steve Marshall. Of course, as always, all Patchman Music soundbanks and software including the TURBO VL chip CAN be shipped overseas.

Recently, a satisfied customer wrote: "I purchased my first WX-5 and VL70-m from [major online dealer] and I ended up taking it back because I was frustrated with the results I was getting and couldn't get any 'real' help from them in that department. A year later I talked with Matt at Patchman and he guided me in the right direction, set me up with the right tools and I am a happy camper. Sometimes I sound like I am on commission as a salesman for him, but that sure isn't the case. I just feel very strongly about the help I received then and now. An old saying goes 'Dance with the one that you brought you to the dance'."

Why buy your wind controller from Patchman Music?

  FC9

YAMAHA FC9 Stereo Volume Pedal

The Yamaha FC9 Dual Volume Foot Controller features two audio input jacks and two audio output jacks to control the audio volume of a stereo audio source or two separate mono instruments. In addition, Output 2 can be switched to function as a CV controller, instead of an audio volume controller, and can be plugged into the volume or modulation jack of most synthesizers. For your convenience, the FC9 also includes a Minimum Volume Knob allowing you to set the volume range. This ACTIVE Stereo Volume Pedal is far superior to cheap passive type pedals. Unlike cheaper pedals, the FC9 sounds great and responds to a nice wide foot movement. It uses a single 9v battery (not included) or AC adaptor such as the Yamaha PA-130 (not included- available below). A customer recently commented about the Yamaha FC9:

"I'm very pleased. The most noticable difference from other volume pedals I've used is that the actual physical range of motion is much broader. This turns out to be very desirable since it's hard to be subtle with your feet. Nice, smooth volume swells. Now I can communicate with the whales!".

 VL70-m

YAMAHA VL70-m Virtual Acoustic Sound Module

Unique to Yamaha, the amazing VL70-m is perhaps the most expressive synth ever made when coupled to a wind controller or breath controller. It provides computer-based "physical modeling" technology which accurately simulates the complex vibrations, resonances, reflections and other acoustic phenomena that occur in real wind or string instruments- to produce high quality monophonic (stereo but with 1 note polyphony) voices. The VL70-m features a WX connector for direct connection to a Yamaha WX5, WX11, or WX7. This connector also provides power to the WX eliminating the need for batteries! The WX5 and VL70-m make an incredible combination for the electronic wind player. We also offer two banks of new and improved sounds for the VL70-m on floppy disk as well as the incredible TURBO VL chip all available extra cost. Included in the box is the VL70-m, manuals, power supply, and factory demo disk.

 WX5

YAMAHA WX5

The Yamaha WX5 Sax-style MIDI wind controller is the latest wind controller from Yamaha, a company that has been an innovator and leader in wind controller technology since 1987. The WX5 takes MIDI wind control to new levels of performance and playability. With its precise, responsive wind and lip sensors, choice of single-reed or recorder type mouthpieces, and range of fingering modes, the WX5 makes expressive wind control more accessible than ever before. The WX5 gives wind/sax/recorder players a new outlet for their creativity vastly expanding their sonic possibilities in a familiar format. Wind controllers also great because they allow the musician to play and practice in privacy with a pair of headphones. Also, the MIDI data that the WX5 transmits can easily be recorded and manipulated in any MIDI sequencer! Keep in mind that the WX5 is a MIDI controller and it does not make a sound on it's own. The WX5 needs to be paired up with a proper sound module. We strongly recommend the Yamaha VL70-m with the PATCHMAN TURBO VL upgrade chip as the companion sound module. Package deals are available- see below. Included in the box is the WX5, Owner's Manual, WX Extension cable for connection to a VL70-m/WT11/MFC10 (this also powers the WX5), padded carrying pouch, recorder and reed style mouthpieces, neck strap, and lubricating cream for the mouthpiece. For health reasons, the WX5 is not returnable if opened. For maximum protection, we recommend the optional WX5 Hardshell Case available below. If you are not using the WX Cable, then we recommend also picking up a Yamaha PA-130 AC Adaptor (available above) to save batteries.

Wind controller expert Matt Traum personally checks, and calibrates EVERY WX5 we sell before it ships. This is CRITICAL as just about every WX5 that comes from the factory is not calibrated correctly. This one extra step that we take is highly valuable to our customers.

 WX Screwdriver

YAMAHA WX Adjustment Screwdriver & Rubber Holder

This is the adjustment screwdriver and cable-mounted rubber holder that is used to adjust the recessed pots on the WX7, WX11, or WX5.

If you are playing live and you need to tweak your wind controller, this item insures you will always have the proper tool right at your fingertips. Don't get stuck without one.

 Silcon7 Lubricant

Silcon7 Lubricant

Silcon7 is an excellent industry standard lubricant that will not harm rubber wind controller parts. It won't migrate, harden, or break down and it is not affected by moisture, salts, or mild acids. Use Silcon7 regularly on all rubber mouthpiece parts to protect, lubricate, maintain softness, and reduce aging/cracking. NOT for use on key switches. Flip open lid stores neatly and easily with your wind controller. This 3 gram plastic vial will last years. Don't leave home without it! Highly recommended. (Not a Yamaha product). Silcon7 works great with Yamaha WX series and older Akai EWI/EVI series wind controllers. (Not for use with the EWI4000s).

Customer Comments

"I purchased my first WX-5 and VL70-m from [major online dealer] and I ended up taking it back because I was frustrated with the results I was getting and couldn't get any 'real' help from them in that department. A year later I talked with Matt at Patchman and he guided me in the right direction, set me up with the right tools and I am a happy camper. Sometimes I sound like I am on commission as a salesman for him, but that sure isn't the case. I just feel very strongly about the help I received then and now. An old saying goes 'Dance with the one that you brought you to the dance'."

"Matt, got the Saxophone (wind controller) and it is fantastic. I was impressed with the sound! It also arrived in just 3 days right during the Christmas rush. Thanks again for everything. I appreciate your honesty while describing the WX5. You helped me to understand which of the products to purchase to fit my needs."

"Matt, just a quick thank you note regarding the WX5 and VL70 I ordered from you. You were very helpful on the phone and made me feel assured when purchasing from you that I could contact you for any problems. That was worth the peace of mind I needed when I purchased my equipment. I received the equipment within 3-4 days as you said and in excellent condition. Even with a non-music background, I was able to set up my equipment and start playing it within minutes. The sound quality was great too. Thanks again for your help and peace of mind with purchasing my new toy from you."

"Hi, Matt. I got the package yesterday, got it up and running with no problems. It sounds really great... Based on the info on the internet, I can imagine it being a bit overwhelming setting all the settings. So thanks for getting this all set up. Have a great new year."

"Matt: Thanks for all of your help answering my questions on the land line last week. I received the WX5, VL70-m and Patchman Custom Chip. I have been playing saxophone since I was 7 and I am 55 now and was concerned about the learning curve of switching over. Let me tell you that it was a very easy transition. Your custom sounds are awesome. I will even give the guitar players a run for their money! I am leaving for Playa del Carmen, Mexico to play Jazz and Blues Saturday for a week and taking the WX5 and leaving my vintage horn at home. That will be nice... Once again... Thanks Matt... I would be glad to recommend Patchman to anyone looking for wind controllers or MIDI patches."

"Hi Matt, I just wanted to let you know that I received my WX5 and Turbo VL70-m Friday and it is incredible. I originally had called you about an Akai EWI but you steered me in the right direction when I mentioned I was looking for realistic wind sounds. Twice as expensive as the EWI but totally worth it. This weekend I was playing Celtic tunes on the Tin Whistle and Penny Whistle and wow they sounded awesome. I also was playing some Jobim on a flute and some jazzy harmonica with Toots. The sax fingering works beautiful and I can't believe how responsive and expressive the mouthpiece is. With such realistic sounds it's almost impossible to put down. My saxes will have a rest for awhile. Thanks for your help."
