Getting Ready: Instructions

UniQuest for EWI 4000s 7 of 44

This will open the default Settings Dialog for the EWI 4000s instrument module :

The Port and SysX (Comm) Channel settings will already have been set in this dia-

log by the AutoSense procedure. This means that the Port In and Port Out settings

controls will be set to the same MIDI ports that AutoSense discovered your EWI

4000s connected to. Likewise, the Comm Ch will be set to the SysEx communica-

tion channel that your EWI 4000s used to respond to the AutoSense message.

By default, the EWI 4000s is configured to use Comm Ch 0 and MIDI Ch 1.

UniQuest is also configured to these values by default, so everything will be set cor-

rectly unless you plan to set your EWI 4000s to a different MIDI channel.

The SysEx ID (Comm Ch) used by your EWI 4000s is related to its currently

selected MIDI channel as follows: A MIDI channel setting of 1 equals a SysEx ID

setting of 0, a MIDI channel setting of 2 equals a SysEx ID setting of 1, and a MIDI

channel setting of 3 equals a SysEx ID setting of 2, and so on. You must set the

Comm Ch to be 1 less than the MIDI Channel in UniQuest’s settings for the soft-

ware to work properly!
