Akai also offers the EWI USB, a lower-priced model 4-octave that connects directly to a Mac or Windows computer and uses software for control. EWIs use the Boehm fingering system used by most woodwind instruments, or they can be played with a simpler fingering system very similar to a recorder. Akai EWI3020 Service Manual EWI-3020 EWI 3020.

This is a crazy rare set. The module and electronic wind instrument are both in good working order. More about both below. Also included are the cord to link the two, which is impossible to find, and a copy of the service manual.
The module is a great mono synth on its own. It is fully responsive to midi! Two VCOs (CEM3374), resonant low pass filter and VCA (CEM3378) as well as two fixed formant filters. There is a LFO with multiple waveforms and two envelope generators. On top of it all is a large modulation matrix. The module can be controlled over midi and has a filter input. The module along is a great midi controlled analog synth.
Of course, the module was intended to be used with the EWI. Extremely expressive results are possible with the EWI. The EWI is equiped with after-market key covers. These allow you to rest you fingers on keys, like you would on most woodwinds, rather than have your fingers hover over the touch sensitive key pads. These can be removed as they just clip on. There is a hole, whether it was put there intentionally or not I cannot tell, in the mouthpiece cap. It may have been intentional to allow air to flow through the mouthpiece like on a real woodwind. Please see the pictures for details.
The module has been tested fairly extensively and works as it should. The EWI is a little harder to test as it requires some skill to operate. I have significant experience playing saxophone, but I'm not fluent or even close on the EWI. However, I cannot find any faults, other than those listed above, with the EWI. A better skilled player might want to make some adjustments, I just can't be sure. Pitch corresponds to the note triggered and the EWI is sensitive to breath control. I will guarantee these functions only. If there are other functions, I don't have the skill to evaluate.
In case some adjustments are required, the service manual for the module and EWI is included. This cannot be downloaded for free.
It is difficult to price this item as they do not come up often. As with any of my items for sale, I'm open to offers.
Shipping will be at the lower of what is charged at checkout and actual cost. I will refund the difference, if any, between actual shipping costs and what is charged at checkout. Be aware that the module is rather large, and I pack well. Please read my shipping and return policies. As returns are only allowed if the item is incorrectly described, please ask any questions or for specific testing prior to purchase.
