●Next-generation wind synthesizer
The EWI series, synonymous with Akai Professional's wind synthesizers, is getting a new model: the "EWI Solo".
The EWI Solo combines superior portability with realistic playability. It allows you to express all the techniques you've cultivated over years of playing wind instruments without compromise. Combining versatility and ease of use, the EWI Solo is also recommended for beginner players. From delicate breath control to passionate and powerful performances, this digital instrument can handle it all—for your next perfect solo performance, try the EWI!

● Premium Sound for Free Performance: The EWI Solo includes 200 built-in sounds covering a wide range of genres. From romantic synthesizer sounds to authentic jazz clarinet sounds, a selection of top-notch sounds is available to suit any performance.

●With a built-in speaker, you can play anywhere. Now you can play freely without cables. The built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery allows for up to approximately 12 hours of playtime. With a built-in speaker tuned to reproduce a natural sound, the EWI Solo lets you play anytime, anywhere, so you won't miss a single creative inspiration.

●Pursuing Original Sound: The EWI Solo features breath and bite sensors that respond to the strength of your breath and bite on the mouthpiece, allowing you to change the volume and tone for expressive performances. In addition to effects such as reverb, delay, and chorus, you can adjust the pitch tuning, filter, and LFO1/2 to pursue your own signature sound.

●With "EWI Solo," which allows you to play like a familiar instrument, you can select fingering modes for flute, oboe, saxophone, and EV (I Electric Valve Instrument) simply by turning the dial on the unit. If you are a player of woodwind or brass instruments, you can start playing immediately using familiar fingerings.

● Connectivity – Whether you're practicing, performing live, or recording in the studio, the EWI Solo's connectivity options cater to a variety of situations. Whether you're playing software instruments via USB-MIDI, connecting directly to a PA system with a 1/4" (6.35mm) cable for high-volume performances, or practicing late at night using the 3.5mm stereo headphone output, the EWI Solo can do it all.

● Equipped with an octave roller for instantly raising/lowering the octave range, a glide plate for portamento, and an adjustable pitch bend plate, the EWI Solo offers endless possibilities for performance. Furthermore, you can save your favorite settings and recall them instantly when needed.
