11. Glide Plate: Touch this plate while playing a note to produce a "glide" effect, which

smoothly and continuously slides the pitch up or down—a technique known as

portamento.

12. Neck Strap Clip: Connect the included neck strap here.

13. Program Button: Without touching any note keys, touch this screw to display the current

Program (internal sound) in the display. You can then press the Hold Button to move to

the next Program or press the Interval Button to move to the previous Program.

14. Pitch-Bend Plates: Touch the upper or lower plate while playing a note to raise or lower

its pitch, respectively. You can adjust the position of these plates by loosening their

screws.

15. FX (Effects) Button: Press and hold this button and then use the Hold Button and

Interval Button to select Reverb (rb), Chorus (ch), or Delay (dL). You can then release

the FX Button and use the Hold Button to increase the effect level or press the Interval

Button to decrease the effect level.

16. Level Button: Press this button to show the Main Output level in the display. You can

then press the Hold Button to increase the level or press the Interval Button to decrease

the level.

17. Bank Button: Press this button to switch between the bank of Preset Programs and the

bank of User Programs. The Preset LED and User LED next to it will indicate which bank

is selected, Preset or User.

18. Save Button: Press this button to enter Save Mode. The "destination" User Program

number will then blink in the display. Use the Hold Button and Interval Button to select

the User Program number you want to save to, and press the Save Button again to save

the Program, or press any other button to cancel the operation.

19. Wireless Switch: Selects whether or not the EWI5000 is "paired" with the wireless

receiver. To do this, connect the wireless receiver to a USB port on your computer.

(Alternatively, connect the receiver to the included USB power adapter, and connect the

adapter to a power outlet.) The receiver's Pair LED will flash. With the EWI5000 powered

on, set this Wireless Switch to On. It will automatically pair to the wireless receiver.

When it is paired to the wireless receiver, the wireless receiver's Pair LED and the

EWI5000's Preset LED or User LED (next to the Bank Button) will both light solid.

Note: If the connection is lost, you can manually pair the EWI5000 to the receiver by

pressing the receiver's Pair Button and then pressing the EWI5000's Power Button

once.

20. Power: Press and hold this button for a full second to power the EWI5000 on or off.

21. MIDI Out: Use a standard five-pin MIDI cable to connect this port to an external sound

module's MIDI In port, allowing you to use the EWI5000 as a MIDI controller for that

sound module.

22. Phones: Connect headphones (optional, sold separately) here with a stereo 1/8" cable.

23. Battery Compartment: Use a standard Phillips-head screwdriver (not included) to

remove the battery compartment cover, install the battery, and re-secure the cover.

24. Line Output: Use a 1/4" TRS cable to connect this output to the input of a keyboard

amplifier, audio interface, speaker system, etc.

Important: The Line Out is a stereo output. If you are connecting to a mono input (like

those on most keyboard amplifiers, audio interfaces, etc.), use a TS cable instead of a

TRS cable.

25. USB Port: Use a standard USB cable to connect this port to an available USB port on

your computer. This connection will power the EWI5000 and charge its battery as well as

send MIDI messages to your computer.
