Description

★Wireless wind synthesizer, white color model


●Next-generation wind instruments

The EWI5000 White, the latest in the next-generation EWI series of wind instruments, is an expressive and versatile electronic wind instrument thanks to its design, wireless connectivity, and sound. Akai Professional created the EWI5000 White with the same goals in mind as when developing the original EWI. Experience next-generation technology with this instrument made for contemporary players. This is a Japan-exclusive product that includes a cleaning cloth and logo stickers.


● Free performance

The EWI5000 White features 2.4GHz wireless functionality, allowing for wireless transmission of the EWI5000's audio to the included receiver. This enables free and dynamic performance without the constraints of cables. Supporting stereo wireless audio and including a receiver, it allows for enjoyable performances on stage or in the studio. Of course, it also features audio output and headphone jacks, as well as a USB port and a 5-pin MIDI output port, enabling connection to a variety of devices. Furthermore, it has a built-in rechargeable battery that can be charged via USB.


● Unparalleled expressive power

Like previous models, a special sensor that responds to the pressure applied to the mouthpiece and the strength of the breath allows for subtle control of pitch, tone quality, and volume. Furthermore, it is equipped with eight parameter knobs—Filter, Breath, Bite, Semi, Fine, Reverb, Chorus, and LFO—allowing for fine-tuning of each to fully convey the player's expressiveness.


● 6 fingering modes

The EWI5000 White uses the same fingerings as a recorder, making it easy for beginners to start playing. It also features fingering modes for instruments such as trumpet, saxophone, flute, and oboe, as well as an EV (Electronic Brass Instrument) mode for brass players, accommodating a wide range of playing styles.


● Abundant input/output terminals

Equipped with a USB-MIDI terminal and a 5-pin MIDI output terminal, the EWI5000 White can play not only with its built-in sound source but also with external MIDI sound sources and software sound sources, further expanding its range of expression. It also features a stereo mini-jack headphone terminal for convenient practice and a 1/4 stereo audio output terminal (TRS terminal) for connecting to a PA system or mixer. A USB cable and AC adapter are included, allowing charging from both an AC outlet and USB.


● Built-in high-quality sound library

The EWI5000 White features a high-quality sound library from SONiVOX, a company renowned for its virtual instruments and software synthesizers. With a total capacity of over 3GB, it includes 100 programs featuring realistic wind instrument sounds, as well as organ, bass, and synthesizer sounds, allowing you to play in any genre.


● EWI5000 Sound Editor

Using the dedicated sound editor software (available for download), you can edit the sound library of the EWI5000 White on your computer (Windows/Mac). You can edit and set parameters such as filter, LFO, pan, tune, and envelope to your liking, save them to the unit, and start playing immediately.
