Hi Sal;

Unfortunately I am now taking lessons on the saxophone and I haven't quite
>figured out how to hook up a midi cable for it.

Well, there is a midi wind controller by Yamaha called the WX-11
I do think you need a midi keyboard to go through first but I could be wrong.
Anyway with the WX-11 (sounds like some kinda Air Force test project) you can
input to music programs like Finale. Although wind controller like the WX-11 or

the Ewwi are Sax/flute/clarinet type fingerings, the technique will require lots

of serious practice to achieve the kind of facility you have on the real
clarinet or sax. (we talkin' about $600-1900 for one of these things)
