CC (Continuous Controller): The breath sensor will send a MIDI Continuous Controller (CC) message. If you select this, press the Trans Button to set additional message parameters:

oEn (Enable): This determines whether CC output is enabled or disabled. If you select this, press and hold the Trans Button, and press the Hold Button or Interval Button to turn it on (On) or off (OF). When it is on, a dot will appear in the display.

oCn (Controller Number): This is the CC number that will be sent when you blow into the mouthpiece. Use the Hold Button or Interval Button to set the CC number (01127; values over 99 will be shown as the last two digits with a dot between them). Match this number to the CC number of the parameter you want to control.

Important: We recommend setting En to off (OF) before changing this parameter to prevent accidentally muting the EWI5000's output while moving through CC #7 (Volume).

onb (No Breath): The value that will be sent with the CC message when you are not blowing into the mouthpiece. Use the Hold Button or Interval Button to set the value (00127; values over 99 will be shown as the last two digits with a dot between them).

obr (Breath): The value that will be sent with the CC message when you are blowing into the mouthpiece. Use the Hold Button or Interval Button to set the value (00127; values over 99 will be shown as the last two digits with a dot between them).

LV (Lock Velocity): When this is on, the breath sensor will not affect velocity; all Note On messages will be sent with a fixed velocity. Press the Trans Button to turn it on or off. When it is on, a dot will appear in the display.

To set the velocity, press and hold the Trans Button, and then use the Hold Button or Interval Button to set the value (01127; values over 99 will be shown as the last two digits with a dot between them).

Ct (Capture Delay): This determines how much delay there is between the moment you blow into the mouthpiece and the Note On message is sent. Press and hold the Trans Button, and then use the Hold Button or Interval Button to set the amount (0110).

CS (Constant Output): When this is on, the breath sensor send breath messages with a fixed value, which you can set by turning the Breath Parameter Knob. Press the Trans Button to turn it on or off. When it is on, a dot will appear in the display.

4.To return to Performance Mode, press the Setup Button until the display is blank.
