You are a lovely girl! You play very well! Thank you for this interesting demo. I don't understand your language. Sorry! Could play with more sounds ? Could you play the same sounds with the 5000 and the Solo? (For example: same notes on trumpet of Ewi 5000 and Ewi Solo, Oboe, Classical Flute ... I adore you !

> I don't understand your language. I wrote an English subtitle in reply to Bender Bending Rodriguez. (Maybe located below.) Please find and read it. Anyway, I'm also interested in EWI SOLO !!!
I would like if she could...may be put on some subtitle so I can understand what she's saying.

I made an English subtitle with a .sbv format. I'd like you (and other native speakers) to modify and correct sentences of the subtitle. Then, add the modified subtitle to this video. Or, at least, I'd like you to write the modification in comments. Maybe the time in the subtitle is a little different from the exact one. Anyway, I hope it helps you (and other people speaking in English). (P.S. According to the site of amazon linked to the overview, the price is 55,000 yen; i.e. $500 + alpha.)

0:00:00.0,0:00:06.0 Hello, everyone. I'm Mana Arakawa, a sax player. Thank you for many comments and high-evaluation. 0:00:06.0,0:00:09.5 Suddenly, did you all see a presentation? 0:00:09.5,0:00:16.5 A new EWI product was released after a few years. 0:00:16.5,0:00:19.0 Its name is EWI SOLO. 0:00:19.0,0:00:23.0 It passed two and half years since I started playing EWI... 0:00:23.0,0:00:29.0 To me who never thought I was so addicted 0:00:29.0,0:00:38.0 AKAI Professional lent the new product as an official endorser. 0:00:38.0,0:00:40.0 (onomatopoeia sound?) 0:00:40.0,0:00:48.0 That's why today I review this EWI SOLO, the new product for the first time in the world(!?). 0:00:48.0,0:00:49.5 There are three points. 0:00:49.5,0:00:52.0 First, it has a built-in speaker. 0:00:52.0,0:00:55.5 Second, 200 timbres are preset. 0:00:55.5,0:01:00.0 Third, it has an external input terminal. 0:01:00.0,0:01:03.0 Do you want to see it soon? 0:01:03.0,0:01:04.5 Let's open and play it. 0:01:04.5,0:01:10.0 In this channel, I'm sending advice to play sax, instrument introduction, and a lot of things related to music. 0:01:10.0,0:01:17.0 Please subscribe to my channel by click the red "Subscribe" button below if you're interested in even one. 0:01:17.0,0:01:18.5 I also do twitter. 0:01:18.5,0:01:21.0 I'm glad if you follow me on twitter. 0:01:21.0,0:01:23.0 Now, let't start. 0:01:23.0,0:01:25.0 First, my first impression is ... 0:01:25.0,0:01:27.0 a very long box. 0:01:27.0,0:01:28.0 Can you see it? 0:01:28.0,0:01:33.5 This is the box compared with ones of EWI USB I have and EWI 5000. 0:01:33.5,0:01:35.0 The reason is clear. 0:01:35.0,0:01:38.0 This is the reason. Please look at this. 0:01:38.0,0:01:42.0 Its form is quite different from EWI ones so far. 0:01:42.0,0:01:46.5 It is a built-in speaker that EWIs so far don't have. 0:01:46.5,0:01:50.5 It wastes time to mention a box, so I'm opening the box immediately. 0:01:50.5,0:01:53.5 First, I'll introduce accessories. 0:01:53.5,0:01:57.0 Strap that is the same type of one with EWI USB and EWI 5000. 0:01:57.0,0:02:06.5 Then, the instructions. USB cable, power supply, cap. And the main body. 0:02:06.5,0:02:08.0 This is the main body. 0:02:08.0,0:02:10.5 The body color is black, jet black. 0:02:10.5,0:02:19.0 Personally, the keys here (I'm not sure you can see) are a little different material, have a high-class feeling, and are cool. 0:02:19.0,0:02:23.0 It's much rounder than EWIs so far. 0:02:23.0,0:02:26.0 Its form is like a clarinet one. 0:02:26.0,0:02:29.0 And, there is a speaker in the lower part. 0:02:29.0,0:02:33.0 Because of a little spread, it looks like a clarinet. 0:02:33.0,0:02:34.0 The shape is like this. 0:02:34.0,0:02:38.0 My image is that it might be longer because of the speaker. 0:02:38.0,0:02:44.0 It's longer and has a speaker, but it's not heavy at all. 0:02:44.0,0:02:50.0 Its content is the same as one of EWI 5000. It uses PCM sound source; i.e. sampling sound. 0:02:50.0,0:02:51.5 Anyway, it's really light. 0:02:51.5,0:02:57.0 I think it's very good to be light because it puts a strain on my right hand. 0:02:57.0,0:03:01.0 I'm very happy to put a speaker. 0:03:01.0,0:03:09.0 Here is a power button, and it turns on when pushing the button. And when expeling air into EWI, 0:03:09.0,0:03:11.0 [sound of EWI] 0:03:11.0,0:03:12.0 the EWI makes a sound. 0:03:12.0,0:03:14.0 This feeling of free stress. 0:03:14.0,0:03:21.0 To be honest, it's a hassle to prepare cables, computers, and amplifiers. 0:03:21.0,0:03:25.0 I think cases often happen "I don't know how to insert it!", "There is no sound anyhow". 0:03:25.0,0:03:33.5 And I felt stress caused by the delay; i.e. it's late to start sound just after breath. 0:03:33.5,0:03:38.0 However this is easy to make sounds even by those who are not good at machines. 0:03:38.0,0:03:45.0 Thus, the hurdles go down that you thought it seems difficult a bit to play a wind synthesizer though you wanted to start. 0:03:45.0,0:03:48.0 I'd like to say thank you very much, AKAI Professional. 0:03:48.0,0:03:50.5 Next, I'm going to see the details. 0:03:50.5,0:03:53.5 The mouthpiece part is the same as before. 0:03:53.5,0:03:56.5 The changed part is here. See here. 0:03:56.5,0:03:58.5 The display was changed. 0:03:58.5,0:04:03.0 There is a knob under the display, and I touch it. 0:04:03.0,0:04:05.5 Like this. Can you see it? 0:04:05.5,0:04:12.0 Though numbers were displayed, how can I say, like digital watches so far, characters can be displayed like this. 0:04:12.0,0:04:15.0 It's very very easy to set. 0:04:15.0,0:04:22.0 I'd like to put another video about how to use it and details, but the difficulty level to treat it decreased much. 0:04:22.0,0:04:24.0 Even one person can do a lot of things. 0:04:24.0,0:04:30.5 There are various buttons, and it has eight octave-rollers. 0:04:30.5,0:04:35.5 These parts to use bend are not different from EWI 5000 basically. 0:04:35.5,0:04:46.0 But, this EWI has 200 timbres of which it seems that the number is the most in the wind synthesizer history. 0:04:46.0,0:04:48.5 I think EWI 5000 has 100 timbres, maybe. 0:04:48.5,0:04:50.0 It is double. Double. 0:04:50.0,0:04:54.5 We can select one of these many timbres. 0:04:54.5,0:05:02.0 As Yoshimeme-san, an official instructor, also said, it seems to be HOT (? COOL?) because it's quite many timbres to use as it is. 0:05:02.0,0:05:06.0 Furthermore, look here. 0:05:06.0,0:05:08.5 It's written as AUX IN. 0:05:08.5,0:05:10.5 It has an external input terminal. 0:05:10.5,0:05:19.0 This is the first time in the EWI history, and this means the EWI can play sound of iPhone and karaoke. 0:05:19.0,0:05:27.0 Until then, I think another speaker etc. need to be prepared, sound is played, and you have to practice EWI with mix of the sound. 0:05:27.0,0:05:34.0 However, now you can go to practice with a mobile phone and EWI SOLO only. 0:05:34.0,0:05:35.5 Do you wanna listen? 0:05:35.5,0:05:38.0 I put it in the external input terminal, then... 0:05:38.0,0:05:45.5 [music] 0:05:45.5,0:05:48.0 You can listen to the music as usual, can't you? 0:05:48.0,0:05:54.0 For example, a sax sound is included in this music source, but you can practice EWI with it. 0:05:54.0,0:06:22.0 [music with EWI] 0:06:22.0,0:06:25.0 It's a very useful function, isn't it? 0:06:25.0,0:06:32.0 Because it has a headphone terminal, of course, you can practice at home without letting go out as ever. 0:06:32.0,0:06:35.5 Because it also has LINE OUT, you can connect it to a speaker and an amp. 0:06:35.5,0:06:40.0 How do you think? You want a little more, don't you? 0:06:40.0,0:06:44.0 Because it has a lot of interesting functions and you may be tired to listen to just my speech, 0:06:44.0,0:06:48.0 I'd like to introduce some of my favorite timbres I recommend. 0:06:48.0,0:07:01.0 [music: 11:Retro Brass] 0:07:01.0,0:07:04.0 You feel it is the sound to come out from a wind synthesizer, don't you? 0:07:04.0,0:07:11.0 This is the 11th timbre of Retro Brass, and it's very very fun if I practice with it. 0:07:11.0,0:07:14.0 Then, next. 0:07:14.0,0:07:30.0 [music: 5:Jazz Flute] 0:07:30.0,0:07:33.0 This is the 5th timbre of Jazz Flute. 0:07:33.0,0:07:37.5 I'm not sure of the reason because I practice flute, but it's a pretty fun timbre. 0:07:37.5,0:07:40.5 The 73rd timbre of Slap Bass. 0:07:40.5,0:07:49.0 [music: 73:Slap Bass] 0:07:49.0,0:07:52.0 I can't play, so I look up to play the timbre. 0:07:52.0,0:07:57.0 Picking the (48th) timbre of Harmonica also might be fun because of being able to practice using a bend etc, I think. 0:07:57.0,0:08:06.0 [music: 48:Harmonica] 0:08:06.0,0:08:11.5 That's my review of an AKAI's new product, EWI SOLO. 0:08:11.5,0:08:17.0 The release date is September 3, but the number of initial production doesn't seem a lot. 0:08:17.0,0:08:21.5 Hence, if you want, please ask as soon as possible. 0:08:21.5,0:08:32.5 This may be a music instrument I recommend deeply to those who play an EWI until now, of course, who thought "I want to play an EWI", and who thought "I want to play something of an electronic music instrument from now". 0:08:32.5,0:08:38.0 Because I just start to play, I'm glad if you practice together. 0:08:38.0,0:08:41.0 I think I practice in order to show one song to you. 0:08:41.0,0:08:47.0 I'm glad if you click a high-evaluation button and subscribe to my channel when this video is helpful. 0:08:47.0,0:08:50.0 I also do twitter. Please follow me on twitter. 0:08:50.0,0:08:52.0 I've start an online salon. 0:08:52.0,0:08:57.0 I'm waiting for registration from people who want saxophone friends or who want to improve skills to play. 0:08:57.0,0:09:00.0 Then, thank you very much for watching the video until the end. 0:09:00.0,0:09:12.0 [music]
I wanted to ask you to play the same melody or notes with the same named sounds of the Ewi 5000 and the Ewi Solo to compare better the two instruments ? Thaks a lot !
