Oh man, the Runyon I have has "the spoiler" engraved on it and it is still flat as hell. I really like the sound it produces but I don't have the confidence to order another one in case the problem...

So Dave, you've mentioned that your brown Runyon plays flat even when fully inserted. This is exactly the same problem I am facing, did you manage to get it to play in tune with the clarinet reeds?

Sorry for resurrecting this thread but I am in a similar situation too, the wooden case that came with my Selmer Series II soprano is broken beyond repair. I have the Protec case but it does not seem...

So I supposed that I am not alone then :P

Mouthpiece
Hold the mouthpiece gently in your mouth with your teeth, and exhale so
the breath is passed through both ends of your mouth. The EWI4000s
detects this wind pressure with the breath...

As far as I know, the recommended embouchure for the EWI is to bite the mouthpiece and keep the lips loose while letting some air out from the sides. I have been playing it by "wrapping" my lips...

Sorry for resurrecting this thread.

Anyway I have picked up the clarinet recently and have experienced the same resistance problem too especially on the 2nd octave (B to E). I have to push hard to...

It seems like this Bis key is out of commission. I have tried Amazon, WWBW and Runyon....none of them has this key for sale. Even Charlie A's site is no longer availalble. Anyone knows of anywhere...

Thanks Chris, it helped. I was able to fool around with the sounds on Reason 5 which had just arrived. They basically sounded good but they need some serious setting up to work properly with the EWI....

Hey guys, I am starting to learn about computer music and would need some advice here.

I am now looking for a decent Midi controller keyboard and I have kinda zoomed in on the Akai MPK49 as it...

Wow, thanks to Chris for pointing out about the ASIO drivers. I have installed the ASIO4ALL and it seems like the latency is no longer noticeable, especially the drumpads which also had latency prior...

Here are the computer specs:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 3Ghz
RAM: 4GB
OS: Win7 32bit

I hope that the lag was not due hardware issues. I was just noodling around on Reason without touching any of the...

Yes Chris, I have been to your EWIResonSounds website, good stuff there, especially the "How to set up your EWI" page which had helped a noob like me. And Dan's tutorial totally rocks!

The problem...

Thanks Dan, I thought that it will just be a simple plug and play thing, didn't know that it is THAT complicated. I'll read up on your web pages. Thanks again!

Ok I have just purchased a MIDI/USB cable and wanted to test it out at a friend's PC that has Reason 5 and Win7. The first thing I did was to see if the Vyzex software ver 1.01 will work but the...

When you mention output, did you mean the headphone output? Thats the only thing I can think of.

Thanks to everyone for the input. The thought of getting the TurboVL chip separately and installing it myself with all that soldering jobs freaks me out.

Since laptop is a consideration, I have a...

tmuraoka, nice playing there!
Anyway, I am still apprehensive about playing live while connected to a laptop. Besides the VL70m, are there other good EWI-compatible hardware sound modules available?...

Ok, I am a total noob on electronic musical instruments.

It seems like every EWI4000s user uses the VL70m and almost everyone dumps the default sounds. I personally feel that they sound too...

My spolier mpc has just arrived, it sounded so good and solved all my palm keys problems and I could even reach the altissimo G on it. It played so well and I couldn't put it down.

However,...
