Inexpensive, expressive, easy to play

I backed the re.corder as a Kickstarter project, so I was among the first to receive a production instrument.

The re.corder is a functional acoustic soprano recorder with embedded electronics that allow it to be used as a MIDI woodwind controller. It includes a mute plug that fits in the windway to silence its sound when used in MIDI mode.

The downloadable App (iOS or Android) is essential for configuring the re.corder. It also has learning and jamming facilities, and a dozen or so sampled sounds that you can play.

Connectivity is strictly via Bluetooth MIDI - the micro-USB port is only used for charging the battery (which allows many hours of play, and several days' standby).

Within the App, you can configure breath response, select from a number of fingering schemes ranging from recorder to trumpet, or create your own.

You can also configure MIDI CCs and response curves for breath pressure and three accelerometer axes - inclination, rotation and "z-axis". Breath pressure can also be sent as Channel Aftertouch. There is no facility for pitch-bend.

All parameters can be saved to the instrument, so you can then quit the App and connect to a DAW or a hardware synth.

The latter will require an extra piece of hardware, namely a Bluetooth-MIDI receiver such as CME's WIDI Master.

I got the re.corder to replace my Casio DH-100 Digital Horn, which I had used since the 1980s. The re.corder is smaller, lighter, easier to blow, and has more options for expression than the Casio, as well as being highly configurable.

The re.corder is the most affordable and portable MIDI wind controller on the market, and more versatile than its nearest rivals. Thoroughly recommended.
