Thanks so much for this! I bought my EWI years ago on a whim as my first ever wind instrument, but it has spent all but a few months of that time gathering dust. Dug it out a few days ago to see if I could get back into it, and after applying your recommendations I'm amazed at how much more satisfying and confidence inspiring it feels to play already, even at my very beginner level. Will definitely be picking up your presets pack soon, and hope this is the start of a rewarding lifelong journey.
Thanks! You do the support I would expect by Akai. I had some problem by unscrewing the low note keys as you show it. The internal screw nut was soldered insufficient to the printed board and fell off! A loose nut inside the printet cuircuit boards is ultrahazardous! I had to open the EWI to get it out. To solder it to the proper place would require to decompound the EWI completely (get off all the boards and other parts) to to make it accessible to a solder iron to solder back the loose nut. Now I think about another solution.
Hi Bernie, I just purchased the Ewi 5000. I am working on the settings now. I also want to add more sounds. Is this possible? Should I sell it and get the EWI Solo, instead of trying to figure this out? Let me know your thoughts? Thanks.
Hey, THANKS! I don't understand 3/4ths of what any of this does, but I also didn't know all these things existed. LOL! Super informative, I'll check out your 100 presets too. This was really helpful and I appreciate the effort!
Hi Bernie, thanks for your well presented video, it saved me a lot of angst. I may get around to downloading your Presets but at the moment I've got enough to learn about my EWI 5000 as it is. Just a different question..I noticed in the manual you can set up the keys in an instrument order e.g Alto Sax, Tenor Sax, Trumpet, Clarinet, etc down the keys. This enables, as it tells me, to quickly change instruments during my playing a song e.g . It adds more interest if you can do this without foot pedals. I also play a Yamaha WX7 linked up to a Yamaha MFC controller and then into the Yamaha VL 70m (with the new pre=set chip} and so changing from one instrument to another is just a foot tap away, but, as you can see, there are more parts but as you've got this versatility, it has worked well for me over the 20 or so years I've played that instrument. Could you elaborate more perhaps on the midi functions available to the EWI 5000? I would appreciate your input in this regard. PS After having major changes to my teeth I found the EWI 5000 was my rescuer as I can't manage all my saxes, clarinet and Flute any more.All the best Bernie and good health to you during this Caromavirus-19 danger time.
So… tried to swap the two keys as you suggested.. the thing that retains the screw that holds the 12 key in place wasn’t attached to the unit and is now rattling around loose in my new AWI. Got a video that shows a full disassembly/reassembly, so I can try to fix this?
Hi Bernie..... all the presets have now been set up and they sound great......also this process has allowed me to better understand the editor program too. What I find totally frustrating though is the user manual. Eg it simply says for breath set the calibration from 0 to 99..... it does not say go higher/lower for easier breath just set between 0 and 99 ..... what use is that. I am struggling a bit with breath and would like to know what makes it easier in terms of the 3 calibration settings for it...I.e. chorus, lfo and reverb....?????
Thank you very much Bernie. Very useful guide !! I still do not get what is the difference between the Breath Settings, you setup withthe rotary knobs, and the Breath calibration you setup with the bS menu ( Sensitivity, Dynamic Range and Rate ) . Does this mean that the Breath Controller has 5 different settings , or there is an overlap between them . ..........also , if there are 5 different parameters to setup, what does each stand for ? Thank you very much in advance.
ThankYou very much for the EWI5000 Setup and Calibration Video Step by Step, it is a very important useful video. I apllyed it to my EWI 5000, but when I put Expression (EP) to High resolution (Hr), the Volum in output droped down, quite to Zero?! What can I do? is there something wrong with the software ?
You can use breath vibrato like flute and brass players. You can also use your thumb on the pitch bend plates for sax style pitch vibrato. For a more controlled vibrato set pitch bend depth to -16 which is about a 1/4 tone.
Yes. Except for possibly the dL (key delay). A beginner setting of higher than 04 will help reduce glitching. Try a setting of 10 to 12 with goal of working your way down to 04 or 03. I’ve tested it with really fast notes and found there is no need to go any lower than 03.
Hi Bernie thanks a lot for your setup video. But I have noticed that after all the settings done the interval key doesn't work anymore. Please can you help? Thanks again.
Hi, in the Editor, In the interval section, you said CC, leave it alone, that is for Midi, could you elaborate. In the Breath section, you move the constant outpu CS to 127, because you used vocal, what is that? If not, where will you set it up? In the video, PP is on or off? Thanks a lot Juan
Hello, Bernie, I tried the setting in this video. I may have done something wrong but my problem is now my unit is locking up showing an upside L and reverse C... so I have to keep restoring it to default every time I turn it on or it locks up... ? have you ever seen that happen and what do you suggest I do. should I return it or is there another solution because Akai Tech don't seem to have any anwsers...
Rudeway I have two EWI5000 and have not seen that error before. Please be careful and accurate when you do the Calibration settings. If it keeps doing it send it back and get a replacement.
Just graduated from an EWI USB to the new Solo . I have attempted to apply the Set up guidance you give for the EWI 5000 to the Solo where they fit. Worked out ok , and I learned a lot ! Question , would it be worth me purchasing your 100 pre sets for the common sounds in the Solo , or are they so much different that I would just mess things up ? and / or are you about to launch your Solo presets ?
G'day Bernzilla. That was really useful. Thank you. Is there any chance that you might, please, please, please, do a similar video showing how to set the EWI up to use it as a MIDI controller in Logic Pro X, including the settings within Logic? I am particularly interested how to use my new EWI5000 to play Logic's brilliant Studio Horns.
I followed each and every setting suggested in the video. I am sorry to say that my EWI5000 sounded awful after that. I had trusted that, being a novice at EWI, the advice of an expert (followed blindly) would have helped. It unfortunately did not. I had to reset my EWI to factory conditions, and then followed my own criteria and some others by Alistair Parnell (also in RUclips). My EWI is sounding much better. I know that I will not take it to its best condition, as I am no expert, but little by little I will gradually improve it. Thanks for your effort, Bernie, but your suggestions unfortunately did not work for me. I hope that they will for others.
You are the first to report unsatisfactory results from these settings so as a novice either you didn’t apply them correctly and/or you are overblowing the EWI when you play it. Try playing at half breath volume and turn up your speaker. My settings and calibrations only get you half way since the factory presets are weak. I suggest you at least go to the editor and turn them all up to -2db. Applying my Bernzilla user presets is also a big improvement. I hope this helps and best wishes on your EWI endeavors.
@@BernieKenerson I set my EWI as per your instruction and all 99 sounds that was boring. Sounds a lot better than the factory settings now. I did press the combination of buttons to reset the EWI to Factory settings. But they were not set as your video. My EWI is on the next release. Sounds 60 to 99 were already set at 3dB. Where the rest were as per your video.
Bernie Kenerson: Do you know of any folks that are successful using the 5000 with Windows 10? The EWI USB did not work well with Windows 10 for me. I use Reaper DAW. Thanks.
Hi i have a problem with my ewi 5000 it get Freeze AND i can't turn ir off or play it just put LD on the LCD screen.plese help i disconet the batery ir works a few hours AND then again put the same error LD
Thanks, Bernie; I set up my new EWI5000 as per your recommendations and been exploring the instrument. Would you have any idea why every once in a while, any tone I may be playing gains a "chainsaw" vibrato type effect? It's happenned three times now and I take it back to your youtube video and recalibrate it. Turning it off and on doesn't change it once it happens. And then, I notice I am getting audio drop. Do I need to always be facing the wireless wifi box? It seems to happen if I turn my back to the wifi unit, which is sitting on the floor. Or is something wrong with the unit?
ROSS2 To get rid of the Chainsaw effect you mentioned try turning it off wait a few seconds and turn back on. You may need to do it 2 or 3 times. Mine does it once in awhile when I first turn it on. The wireless can be sketchy at times so it’s best to not turn your back on it. Some audio dropouts happen when first loading a preset that hasn’t been used much. I play mine a lot so don’t get this much. It has happened when I load a preset I haven’t used in awhile but goes away quickly. I hope this helps.
Hey, you mentioned something about using a vocorder? How does the ewi and that setting relate to a vocorder? Cheers, awesome vid, been keen to get an ewi for a while now
I reported on a severe manufacturing defect (shame on Akai) causing the internal screw nut to loosen off the printed card board and it fell inside the casing. I had to open the casing and remove it to avent something much worse. To overcome this product fault and save the instrument I cut an ISO metric female screw thread 3.5 mm into the remaining empty hole of the metal part inside the casing. The original diameter accidentally fitted for this. I had to enlarge the existing hole in the short external k11 key to get the 3.5 mm screw through it and fasten the key in the new thread. ISO 3.5 mm is not very common in use. I had to study the catalogues of special hardware manufacturers.
Ehi Bernie, I know it sounds stupid, but I don't feel confortable with electronic stuff. To me it's too difficult. Here's the question. How do I fuck change the different sounds I wanna play in my new EWI 5000 if I'm not connected to the PC????? Thank you Bernie.
You touch the chrome screw on the top of the upper bend plate just below the neck strap hook. While touching change presets using the Hold or Interval buttons (clear button on the side)
Interesting, my sittings are completely different than yours. I'm only using external sounds so I guess thats why. I love your playing by the way! Thank you for your videos.
Dougald Hendrick I'm pretty sure that they do the same mapping in all of their models, the left breath is how much air to push before a sound, the right is how much air change to make to increase/decrease volume
I didn't have time to watch the entire thing, can you do a table of content or tell me how I can adjust breath sensors to not hve to use breath at all?
Hello Bernie, unfortunately I have trouble writing in your language. First of all, congratulations and thanks for your video that helped me so much in the Ewi5000 settings. Being in Italy how can I buy the Presets Bernzilla 100 EWI5000, greetings Antonio.
Will Noto Sorry to hear that. I have not encountered Ld on the screen or the problem you are having. Did you mean dL instead? I also recommend that you remove the battery and leave it out for 30 minutes or longer being certain there is no power at all to the EWI. Hopefully all will be well when you replace the battery. If that doesn’t work contact Akai about your EWI problem and what Ld means.
Ciao Bernie, purtroppo ho difficoltà a scrivere nella tua lingua.Innanzitutto complimenti e grazie per il tuo video che mi aiutato tanto nei settaggi dell'Ewi5000.Essendo in Italia come posso acquistare i Preset Bernzilla 100 EWI5000, saluti Antonio
I thinks its robust. I've been using mine professionally on a regular basis since the day the EWI5000 came out. Almost four years now. It can be use friendly once you get to know the instrument. I provide lots of help.
Hi Bernie. Thx for uploading these settings. I did all what you showed and the instruments sounds much better now. But at the same time I face some difficulties. For example I have feeling that I need to blow quite strong to make the sound loud - when I experienced before with my various settings I didn't need blow as strong as now (I have never played any wind instruments so maybe my feeling is subjective?). Also now, when I try to opperate breath knob to higher values above 61, the red dot starts light from 63, but the noise starts to show up around 72 (not like before from 63-64). Another thing is the interval button - after your settings it has no function anymore?
Thank you very much Bernie. Very useful guide !! I still do not get what is the difference between the Breath Settings, you setup withthe rotary knobs, and the Breath calibration you setup with the bS menu ( Sensitivity, Dynamic Range and Rate ) .

Great job and it's helpful for my Own work on Ewi setup. Thanks.
Hi. When you start to blow to a sounds, does it always sound in the lower octave? Hardest thing, how to control the octave roller. Thanks
Lick off your left thumb before playing, it will help. A dry thumb causes problems on the octave rollers, wet thumb will work.
Thank you Bernie.I love Your music also.

I am planing to buy EWI5000. Is this video still relevent after six years or they changed something with calibration?
It’s current. Nothing’s changed.
Do these settings also work when using it as a midi controller in a daw?
The only settings that need to be changed is ‘br’ (breath) and ‘EP’ (Expression) need to be changed to ‘lr’ (low Rez)

Is EW 5000 a robust musical instrument? Is it user friendly>
I thinks its robust. I've been using mine professionally on a regular basis since the day the EWI5000 came out. Almost four years now. It can be use friendly once you get to know the instrument. I provide lots of help.
thanks for response.
Hi Bernie. Thx for uploading these settings. I did all what you showed and the instruments sounds much better now. But at the same time I face some difficulties. For example I have feeling that I need to blow quite strong to make the sound loud - when I experienced before with my various settings I didn't need blow as strong as now (I have never played any wind instruments so maybe my feeling is subjective?). Also now, when I try to opperate breath knob to higher values above 61, the red dot starts light from 63, but the noise starts to show up around 72 (not like before from 63-64). Another thing is the interval button - after your settings it has no function anymore?

Thank you very much Bernie. Very useful guide !! I still do not get what is the difference between the Breath Settings, you setup withthe rotary knobs, and the Breath calibration you setup with the bS menu ( Sensitivity, Dynamic Range and Rate ) . Does this mean that the Breath Controller has 5 different settings , or there is an overlap between them . ..........also , if there are 5 different parameters to setup, what does each stand for ? Thank you very much in advance.
