It's interesting, and creates an amazing sound as well. On a side note, you really need to consider making your instruments into samples one day.

I thought it was universal, but obviously not :) "Gob" in this sense is slang for mouth, and smack I know is definitely not unique to Australia, so the literal equivalent here would be to say you've been smacked in the mouth...ie speechless :) Which is exactly what I was trying to convey above...:) Michael… gobsmacked… this must be just an Australian word?

I'm a little, no, a lot gobsmacked! Wow, just amazing. It truly gives a lot of insight into your music. Of course, I can always ask a lot more questions, any time I listen to your music I can always think of many more. But hearing just a snippet of what the WX5 can do is incredible, and certainly adds a lot of atmosphere to your music. Lots of admiration & appreciation for your being able to play it.

There are even dip switches in the back under a panel that must be set. Here is a photo of the back and the technical specs. http://www.yamaha.ca/content/computermusic/products/controllers/WX5/keyfeatures.jsp It certainly takes a bit of patience.

When I was a young girl (years ago :-) ) I played on a wooden flute. I like it very much to play on it. So I was wondering or it is difficult to learn. It is a nice video to watch.
