The fee is $50.00 per hour and payment is made via PayPal after the session. I have over 30 years experience with wind controllers and can give lessons on EWI and WX along with consulting and set up help for most all hardware and software sound sources. I have over 21 years experience with MIDI. I'm a power user of Cubase, Reason, and many other soft synths. I'm a Mac user but also have a working knowledge of Windows. Currently, I use my EWI4000s and EWI USB on a daily basis for studio and live performances. I have a new 63 year old beginning EWI student that just started a few weeks ago and he's catching on quick and having a great time. I just helped an EWI user in Michigan that needed help programming the soft synths FM8 and Massive for optimal EWI control. I also have a begginning EWI student from Dublin, Ireland you come to the EWI via Flute, Penny Whistle and Uilleann Pipes. If you want to get on the fast track to mastering the EWI then take some lessons from the EWI master. I look forward to sharing the Art of the EWI with you.</p>Bernie Kenerson "Bernzilla"tag:berniekenerson.com,2005:Post/61640712010-12-06T12:00:00-12:002022-12-21T08:15:20-12:00Science Factory Video interview<p> </p>

Here is how it works. Send me an mp3 of your song and let me know the style of solo or section playing you'd like to hear (lyrical, shredding, jazzy, funky, latin, etc...) and I'll record some EWI here in my studio and email you a mp3 mix with the EWI tracks added. If you want something changed I'll be happy to do two more revisions at no extra cost. Usually one or two revisions are more than enough and clients love the EWI tracks. Next you will make your payment through PayPal and then I will post the high quality wave files of the EWI tracks to a secure server for you to download and mix into your project. The cost is $250.00 per song, one track (up to two revisions. Section works and stacks are negotiable. You can check out some of the infinite sonic possibilities of the Art of the EWI by checking my YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/berniesax56</p>Bernie Kenerson "Bernzilla"tag:berniekenerson.com,2005:Post/61640582008-06-03T12:00:00-12:002022-12-21T08:12:33-12:00Vocoder Setup Help<p>I get many questions about how to set up wind controllers with vocoders so this should provide some answers. Vocoders are based of on gates and filters. You need a source and a formant. In this case the EWI with breath sensor set to self oscillate is the source audio going into the vocoder. Plug a mic into the formant and your voice triggers the EWI sounds. I'm learning that you can affect the filters by manipulating vowel shapes. You don't have to match pitch with the notes fingered on the EWI. In fact, you could sing or speak a monotone (hard to do) and you'd still get the pitch fingered on the EWI. I sing along with what I play...kind of like the guitar and bass players I've always envied. Now I can sing along with my solos. It's really fun and quite addictive. Remember, the most important thing is to set the wind controller to self oscillate by turning up the wind/breath sensor gain. Hope this helps, Peace.</p>Bernie Kenerson "Bernzilla"
