This is so cool! Interesting you can use normal mouthpieces. Curious how the sound works, does the reed need to vibrate like a real saxophone, or you just need to blow into it and some air pressure sensor picks up (forgive me I have no hardware knowledge)?

No the reed does not vibrate. It's there to restrict the airflow and to provide a similar embouchure to a real sax. Some more details here: https://github.com/jcard0na/haxo-hw/blob/main/docs/assembly....
