John Swana Talks about the EVI (Eletric Valve Instrument)

[@TM-xp7hd]

I just read now why he plays the EVI. Heart wrenching stuff. I have a knot in my stomach just imagining how someone this masterful is forced to give up the trumpet.

I just witnessed someone playing this instrument at the Des Moines, Iowa downtown Farmer's Market. The man (Paul) explained how it works. It was nothing short of amazing! I'd like to learn it..........

[@PatchmanMusic]

Probably Paul Michich. Search out his name here on TH-cam.

[@BlakeFoster050]

I really wish these were mass produced. Unfortunately like 10 people play these haha.

[@MemeScreen]

I'm getting my club to make one of these. We will be writing in-depth documentation so it should be easy for other people to make one.

[@soundsandsoul6421]

@@MemeScreen I'm really interested in building one on my own

The Club died before we could start on it :(

If you guys are still reading this, Berglund instruments is producing a NuEVI. basically a new and improved Midi EVI.

[@Chu_Strums]

Just saw a talk show recording where Miles Davis shrugged him off after he asked about the EVI!
