Berglund Instruments NuEVI and NuRAD MIDI Wind Controllers. You play them like a wind instrument, and they convert your playing into MIDI!

Has anyone seen or used one of these before? I just saw a brief video, and I think they are super cool.

Here's a video of Nyle Steiner playing one for the first time. He invented the original device that these are based off of.

Here's another video of it controlling an Arturia Microfreak, showing off some of it's capabilities

I don't know that one, but I've played some wind MIDI controllers, Akai EWI models, and I find them cool.

Ooh, those are cool too. I think the ones I posted hook up to a MIDI device to control it, I don't think they are standalone like the EWI seems to be.

A few days ago, I had no idea things like this existed. Now I want them all! :D

The standalone model (with speaker included) is the EWI Solo:

There are other models without speaker, which is more convenient for studio recording:

But aside from Akai, there are other manufacturers selling electronic wind instruments like Yamaha YDS-150 Digital Saxophone or Roland Aerophone AE-10
