Hornberg

The Hornberg hb1 MIDI Breath Station lets you add natural expression to your live or studio performances by enabling breath-generated MIDI control of electronic musical instruments or peripheral devices equipped with a MIDI or USB-MIDI interface. The hb1 comes with a wooden mouthpiece that can be comfortably positioned in front of your mouth using the included Neck Set. It also features a precision sensor, a MIDI-merger function, an integrated MIDI interface, and many innovative parameters, which together provide you with powerful tools to add critical nuances and details to your basic keyboard tracks. The "dynamic attack" parameter gives you sensitive sound control, even in the subtlest pianissimo, while the adjustable "release" allows for breathing in without a gap in the sound. "Multi" mode lets you use up to four hb1 presets simultaneously and control up to four MIDI CCs streams independently. The hb1 can be used with or without a computer. It is carefully handcrafted in Germany with a focus on sustainability and durability.None For breath-generated MIDI control of every electronic musical instrument or peripheral device equipped with a MIDI or USB-MIDI interfaceWooden mouthpiece with built-in precision sensorIncludes a Neck Set, which enables the mouthpiece to be set in a fixed position in front of the mouthMIDI-merger functionAttack, Boost Attack, Release, and Boost Release parameters allow you to achieve precise, sensitive live and studio performancesSetting options include real-time data reduction, inversion and limitation of the signal, drive, and offset Multi Mode for using up to four hb1 presets simultaneously and controlling up to four MIDI CCs streams independentlyBreath data is displayed constantly on the breath-value displayEach parameter can be saved in 25 presetsCan be used with or without a computerNeck Set is made from a flexible but robust metal tube, which can be easily shaped Stainless-steel tube with an infinitely adjustable air intake valveRobust constructionControl unit and pressure-sensor unit made of stainless steel and wood from the wild service treeMouthpiece made of wood from the wild service tree minimizes salivation and has antibacterial/anti-fungal qualitiesHandcrafted in Germany
