Patchman Music sells brand new Berglund NuEVI and NuRAD instruments that have been custom built for Patchman Music to our advanced specifications. Every NuEVI and NuRAD is fully tested and calibrated by Matt Traum here at Patchman Music. Matt has also been involved in the development and refinement of the OS contained in these instruments. Matt also designed the embouchure sensor which is standard now on all NuEVI and NuRAD instruments.
The wind controller world has
waited long enough for a high quality and powerful wind controller. These Berglund Instruments deliver with superb performance and a very high degree of customizabilty through numerous parameters that are easily edited right on the instrument using the crisp built-in OLED display and cursor buttons.
A New Electronic Wind Instrument MIDI Controller
The NuEVI is based on, and features all the playing aspects of, the original Nyle Steiner MIDI EVI. The NuRAD is based on Nyle Steiner's RAD MIDI EWI. These new Berglund instruments include the amazing slur sustain and interval/chord functionality originally designed by Nyle Steiner. Taking the instrument even further, an OLED display with a menu system for settings and sensor adjustments has been added, a USB MIDI port, a legacy 5 pin standard DIN MIDI OUT jack, settings stored in non-volatile memory, built in battery meter, selectable breath curve, and numerous additional control options. A lip sensor (extra controller) for sending Modulation Wheel or Foot Pedal MIDI CC is also included. The NuEVI and NuRAD also feature a built in MIDI Rotator function based on Robby Kilgore's MIDI Rotator- which is a lot of fun to play with any polyphonic synth!
Please note that these instruments are strictly controllers- that is to say they do not have built in sound generators. These instruments must be connected to a MIDI hardware synth or a soft synth running on a computer, which in turn generates the sound. Also for the proper control from your breath, you will need special patches installed in whatever synth or soft synth you use that have been specifically designed to respond to your breath. Patchman Music offers the world's most comprehensive library of sounds specially designed to be controlled with a wind controller. Click here for details.

NuEVI & NuRAD User Comments |
"I
absolutely LOVE my NuEVI! I have been
using it in my live performances and recordings for several years. I use it with my hardware MIDI synth modules as well as my Mac laptop running softsynths and it has performed beautifully for me. I love the fact that is has a built in OLED display which allows me to easily see and edit parameters of the NuEVI right on the instrument itself. And the built in MIDI wireless system is wonderfully liberating." - Matt
