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:

o

En (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.

o

Cn (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).

o

nb (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).

o

br (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.
