My Casio DH-100's internal sounds are kaput like most of them out there. This toy like 'Digital Horn' is no longer made by Casio but it can be found for next to nothing and allows a synth owner to experiment with a breath controller. As long as the internal volume is down to avoid the squeal (broken) you can control a sax patch on any midi equipped synth.

All the DH-100 and 200's I've seen or heard about (except 1) squeal. Tere is some guy charging $45 US to repair these but I'm looking for someone that will share the repair solution for free so it doesn't take me ears to fix.

I heard that casio won't support this as it's a dead product.
I just think that it is worthwhile because it sounds really cool controlling a sax or horn patch.

No one would steal this but I would like to get a real Yamaha wind controller WX-5 but they are around $1,200 CDN.
I would reall appreciate it if anyone knows how to repair this puppy. I believe it is just oscillation in the audio output section.
