This....I like. It would be neat if an input device, similar to a Roland G-707, can be supported to run the Roland GR-700 Guitar Synthesizer.

Here are a couple demo clips.

Late, great Michael Brecker playing pre Akai EWI instrument known as as the Steinerphone before Akai licensed the Steinerphone from Nyle Steiner and redesigned it as today's EWI (eeeeee weeeee) Electronic Wind Instrument. The EWI is reasonably priced, but one better be a darn good woodwind instrument player to make purchase worthwhile. iirc one has to change ways of breathing into an EWI when playing it instead of a woodwind instrument such as a saxophone or clarinet. One has to re-adjust to playing an EWI from what I recall hearing or watching a videoclip in the past.

Nyle performing with his other designed instrument (Electronic Valve Instrument)
