This listing includes 2 cables.
The proprietary cable used to connect the Yamaha WX5 wind controller directly to the VL70-m virtual acoustic tone generator is officially known as the Yamaha WX Cable (often referred to by users as a 6-pin WX cable).
It is a specialized, all-in-one tether designed specifically to streamline a wind player's setup by carrying multiple signals through a single lightweight cord.
Technical Specifications & Design
- Connector Type: 6-pin mini-DIN male-to-male connectors on both ends.
- Physical Appearance: It looks very similar to an old-school PS/2 computer keyboard/mouse cable or a standard 6-pin MIDI/data cable, but it features a custom wiring configuration and heavier shielding to withstand movement on stage.
- Dual Functionality:
- Data: It carries high-resolution MIDI performance data (note on/off, breath control, pitch bend, and key pressure) from the WX5 directly to the tone generator's front-panel "WX In" port.
- Phantom Power: It delivers power from the VL70-m back up to the WX5. This completely eliminates the need to install AAA batteries in the wind controller or drag along a separate power adapter brick while playing.
