Glide Plate

To calibrate the glide plate:

1.Press and hold the Setup Button to enter Setup Mode.

2.Press the Hold Button or Interval Button to scroll through the options until CL (Calibration) appears in the display.

3.Release the Setup Button. The display will show the current sensor. Use the Hold Button or Interval Button to GL (Glide Plate).

4.You can use the Chorus, LFO, and Reverb Parameter Knobs to adjust the sensor. You can touch the glide plate to test the setting. The Setup Button LED will light up when the EWI5000 detects you are touching the glide plate. The Trans Button LED will light up when the glide plate is at its maximum value.

•Turn the Chorus Parameter Knob to adjust the glide plate's sensitivity. 00 is the lowest sensitivity, while 99 is the highest. We recommend turning this knob while not touching the glide plate and setting it just below the point where the Setup Button LED lights up.

•Turn the LFO Parameter Knob to adjust the glide plate's dynamic range. 00 is the smallest range, while 99 is the largest. We recommend touching the glide plate as you would to get a maximum value, and setting this knob just above the point where the Trans Button LED lights up.

•Turn the Reverb Parameter Knob to adjust the glide plate's rate of change. 00 is the lowest rate, while 99 is the highest.

Important: You may also want to touch each of the pitch-bend plates to ensure they are not triggering the glide plate. The glide plate and pitch-bend plates are all partially associated, so their sensitivities may need to be adjusted relative to each other.

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