Advanced Functions

Sound and Sensor Adjustment

You can adjust the EWI5000's sounds to your preference

by using (1) the included sound editor software and/or (2)

EWI5000's eight parameter knobs (remove the cover

above the display to expose the knobs).

The eight parameter knobs control some of the basic

characteristics of either the Program or the EWI5000

itself, as described below.

Each Parameter Knob, except for Fine, has a primary and secondary function. Access the

primary function by simply turning the knob. Access the secondary function by pressing and

holding the Trans Button and then turning the knob.

Filter Primary: sets the Program's filter cutoff frequency.

Secondary: sets the Program's filter resonance.

Breath

Primary: sets the EWI5000's breath sensor offset (how much breath is required to play a

sound).

Secondary: sets the EWI5000's breath sensor's gain (how loudly or quietly you can play;

a higher setting decreases the dynamic range).

Bite

Primary: sets the EWI5000's bite sensitivity (how much biting the mouthpiece affects the

sound).

Secondary: sets the amount of Delay effect applied to the Program.

Semi Primary: sets the EWI5000's tuning by semitones (half-steps).

Secondary: sets the rate of the Delay effect applied to the Program.

Fine Primary: sets the EWI5000's tuning by fractions of a semitone.

Secondary: no function.

Reverb Primary: sets the amount of Reverb effect applied to the Program.

Secondary: sets the room size of the Reverb effect applied to the Program.

Chorus Primary: sets the amount of Chorus effect applied to the Program.

Secondary: sets the depth of the Chorus effect applied to the Program.

LFO Primary: sets the amount of modulation (CC#1) applied to the Program.

Secondary: sets the frequency of the modulation's low-frequency oscillator for the

Program.

If you like the adjustments you have made and want to save them to the Program, press the

Save Button.

Important: When saving, only the settings that apply to the Program will be saved. Settings

that apply to the EWI5000 will affect all Programs because they affect the sensors and tuning

of the EWI5000 hardware itself.

Tip: To further customize your sound, use the EWI5000 sound editor software to adjust even

more Program parameters, and use the parameters knobs' additional functions to adjust the

EWI5000's sensors. Go to akaipro.com/ewi5000 to download the latest EWI5000 sound

editor and EWI5000 User Guide to learn more.
