I lost interest as soon as I saw the bloke fart-arsing about on his mobile to make it work.

And it hasn't got a front F key.

Title got me excited, then when I saw it was just another wind controller I lost all interest. Tons of companies are already making these including Rolland, Yamaha and others.

I've got and use the Roland one only because it has the buttons laid out like sax keywork, only I don't use it for its sax sounds as I have actual saxes that make real life sax sounds.

From what I see - injection molding would be faster and simpler than 3D printing for a case & keys.

I unfortunately thought it was a sax ...
