    Description

    Tested working. In great condition as shown.
    Released in 1987, the WX7 is a minimalist wind MIDI control played in the same way as a saxophone.
    Since the WX7 is an interface for electronic instruments no vibration is needed, and the design retains only the essential nature of a wind instrument; a mouthpiece, keys to denote pitch, and a tube to support the keys – all other functions and ornamentation were removed. Honed to a simple and minimal configuration, this design defines a standard for digital instruments that people will continue to play for years to come.
    Through thorough investigations of brass and woodwind instruments designers found that techniques used to play the saxophone were not difficult to master. Studying saxophone performance and fingering, we looked into the nature of wind instruments, reconstructing them from their basic elements. From there we took only what we found necessary to drive an electronic instrument.
