Akai EWI5000

The Akai EWI5000 uses a 2.4 GHz wireless connection for wireless transmission. The corresponding receiver is also included. In combination with the rechargeable lithium-ion battery, this electronic wind instrument is ready for use at any time. For precise control of the sound, EWI5000 incorporates high-sensitivity sensors in the mouthpiece that respond to air pressure and touch. Eight knobs allow you to set instrument and effect parameters: Filter, Reverb, Chorus, LFO, Breath Amount, Bite Amount, Semitone Tuning and Fine Tuning.

Whether wood or brass, the EWI5000 extends the performance possibilities for all wind instrumentalists. EWI5000 supports different playing styles - the finger sets can be switched to flute, oboe and saxophone. The EVI mode (Electronic Valve Instrument) was implemented especially for the simulation of brass blowing.

Versatile connections

A USB MIDI port and a 5-pin MIDI output enable the control of software synthesizers, virtual samplers or traditional MIDI modules. A 6.3 mm output is used for connection to an amplifier. A 3.5 mm stereo output allows for quiet playing with headphones. EWI5000 can be charged via a USB cable or via a power supply. Both are included.
