Adjusting the Vibrato Sensor
By gently biting on the MOUTHPIECE, you can produce a
vibrato effect. This section explains how to adjust the vibrato
sensor.
1. Set the “A” (Adjust) knob in the “VB” (Vibrato) section to
the center position.
2. While playing a long tone on the EWI4000s, bite the
MOUTHPIECE lightly. The sensor is properly adjusted
if you get the vibrato effect while biting the
MOUTHPIECE.
3. If you feel the vibrato is not set for your particular
playing style, turn the “A” (Adjust) knob clockwise and
try it again.
Note: The vibrato effect is obtained by biting the Mouthpiece many times rather than a single steady bite.
Adjusting the Glide Sensor
This section explains how to adjust the glide sensor.
1. Set the “T” (Time) knob in the “GL” (Glide) section to
the center position. If you turn the “A” (Adjust) knob
clockwise, the Glide indicator should light up. If you
turn the “A” (Adjust) knob counterclockwise, the
indicator should go off.
2. When the Glide indicator’s LED is lit, turn the “A”
(Adjust) knob slightly counterclockwise until the
indicator LED goes off.
3. Play the EWI4000s and move your thumb across the
Glide plate (while touching the OCTAVE SHIFT
ROLLERS). You should hear the glide (or portamento)
effect when you change from one note to another.
4. To confirm the proper glide sensor setting, change the
octave with the OCTAVE SHIFT ROLLERS while
playing. The pitch of the sound should slide slowly, not quickly. If you wish to make the slide time
longer, turn the “T” (Time) knob clockwise. To shorten the slide time, turn it counterclockwise. You can
set the “Time” or “Rate” of the glide’s pitch shift. (See SETTING THE GLIDE EFFECT TIME & RATE
for more information.)
Note: After adjusting the “T” (Time) knob, you will need to adjust the “A” (Adjust) knob again.
