Akai Professional EWI USB Wind Instrument Overview

Akai EWI USB Product Overview by GAK

The Akai EWI USB is an easy, fun-to-use digital wind instrument that has the power to produce over 75 different orchestral, concert band, jazz band, and synthesiser sounds. The layout of the EWI USB is very similar to the EWI 4000s & 5000, also by Akai.

The difference between the EWI USB and other electronic wind instruments that have come before it is it's built-in USB interface, this allows the user to simply load, play and listen to sounds by simply connecting it to a PC or Mac.

The Akai EWI USB falls in to a different price range compared to a lot of digital wind instruments, usually you'd find high-end, professional instruments and at the other end of the spectrum, toys. The EWI USB meets nicely in the middle with professional sounds, robust build and affordable price.

Akai Product Overview

EWIs are the only choice for serious wind players looking to make music electronically. While EWI USB is easy and fun to use, it’s also powerful, flexible, and most importantly reliable enough for use on stage and in the studio by professional musicians.

EWI USB is the most flexible EWI because it harnesses your computer to generate its sounds. Its USB interface means that all you need is nearly any Mac or PC and the included EWI USB software, and you’re ready to practice, perform, create, and record with a full collection of wind instrument sounds. Aria Player software was produced specifically for use with EWI USB, providing wind players with an unprecedented level of expressive control.

You get over 75 different orchestral, concert band, jazz band, and synthesizer sound sets expertly recorded and programmed by Garritan, renowned for its ultra-realistic instrument sound libraries.

EWI USB offers multiple fingering modes including sax, traditional EWI, flute, oboe, and EVI (brass), so whether you’re just starting out as a woodwind student or an old pro wind player, you’ll find EWI USB easy to play. EWI USB is designed for you to spend your time playing music; not learning technology.

Historically, electronic wind instruments have fallen into two different categories: high-end, professional instruments and toys. EWI USB breaks the price barrier, bringing professional quality, expressive control, and a studio-ready sound library to a price the professional-wind-instrument world has never seen.
