Akai EWI4000S Description:

Electronic Wind Instrument with MIDI I/O and built in sound engine

The Akai Professional EWI4000S is a giant leap in the evolution of wind instruments.

At the heart of the EWI4000S is its built?in sound module.

A first in the industry, this module lets musicians plug a wireless MIDI or audio set up into the base of the EWI, and move freely around the stage without being tethered by wires.

At Akai Professional, we understand that artists want to concentrate on creating and performing music, not manipulating buttons, so we've made the breath, vibrato, glide time, and bend width controls easily accessible and totally adjustable.

Plus, the included software lets both Windows and Mac users edit, customize, store and recall sounds with their computer.

With incredible versatility, ultimate mobility and unparalleled sound, the EWI4000S puts the high tech musical revolution at your fingertips.
