    The versatility is amazing, and when you demo'd just how effective they could be, such as panning with head tilt, there's so many creative elements you can add to various genres of music in a simple fashion. Thanks for the video, investing in one of these seems like a true no-brainer - once you get some ideas of how you'll use the effects.

Thanks for an excellent video showing what this controller can do clearly without missing any details. Nice!

    • @mikaelbaggstrom
      @mikaelbaggstrom  6 років тому +3

      After using this for a while now, I found myself using breath perhaps 80-90%, bite around 10% and the tilt and pan...not so much to be honest. I would say you get at least 80% of the upsides from just the breath controller. =)

    • @mikaelbaggstrom
      @mikaelbaggstrom  6 років тому

      Yeah it is super fun to use, and the results are more "human" if you know what I mean. Because it adds "breath and life" to the performance. Hmm...I have not tried with vocal and choir libraries, but I just checked out Realivox after reading your comment, and oh my that sound was great. I would imagine it would work great for adding dynamic expression to those "angelic" vocal linesI heard from the demo I watched. :)

    Thanks for sharing the video! Let me tell you something important:
    God loves you! God loves us !
    He is no respecter of persons! because God wants us all to be saved! and let's go to the knowledge of the "Truth"
    God wants to save us from eternal damnation,
    which we all deserve because of sin,
    who entered the world through Adam, and death entered through sin,
    and thus death passed to all human beings,
    therefore, we are all “Sinners”
    But God's Love was so great for us, that he sent his only Son (Jesus Christ), gave him to this world, to die and rise again for all of us! No respect of persons!
    so that everyone who believes in Jesus Christ does not go to eternal punishment, but has “Eternal Life! “
    Jesus Christ came to call sinners to “Repentance! “
    and, whoever believes in Him, has “Eternal Life! “But whoever refuses to believe in Jesus Christ, the wrath of God remains on him.
    Then, as through the transgression of Adam, condemnation came to all human beings, in the same way, through the justice of Jesus Christ, justification of life came to all human beings!
    for all of us who believe in “The Only Savior of the world!
    The Only Mediator between God and us! The Lord Jesus Christ! “
    All of us who trust in Him; we have “Eternal Life! “
    Let's all read the Word of God! mainly the Gospels;
    Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,
    and let us pray to God, our Heavenly Father, every day…
    God loves you! God loves us! To Him alone be the Glory forever! Amen!
