Changing the Settings

You can specify how the sound is affected by the force of your breath (Breath Curve), the depth of reverberation (Reverb Level), and the type of 

fingering (Fingering Type).

Explanation

Breath Curve

“C3”

1

L2

Specifies how the sound responds to the force of your breath.

L2, L1

We recommend these settings if you’re a beginning wind 

instrument player, or if you’re not confident of your lung 

capacity. Fortissimo (ff) can be produced even by blowing 

relatively softly.

M

This setting is the closest to the response of an actual wind 

instrument.

H1, H2

We recommend these settings for sax players. Fortissimo (ff) 

is produced only when you blow quite strongly.

Adjusts the depth of reverb (the reverberation that is characteristic of a performance in a concert hall).
Higher values produce deeper reverberation; lower values produce shallower reverberation.
