Electric Music Instrument Wind

I use the System 10 for my acoustic guitar , electric guitar as well as vocal mics and instrument mics . I use the System 10 for on stage use and for studio recording . I get clear signals with no cut-outs and awesome sound ! With a great price point ! Sincerely , Derek

THIS IS AWSOME! If you play an instrument, consider purchasing this kit. I use the Swivel Clip by Clipping it onto my electric guitar and recording my jam sessions. I also set up the shorty on my keyboard and record that way too. If you are considering buying this kit, BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I must admit, the first time I unboxed the instrument, I was amazed at the build quality. It has some heft, the keys are properly and ergonomically placed and you know Akai really took their time to perfect this wind controller. But as a long time saxophone player, the first time I actually played some scales, I was quite disappointed - it didn't feel like a saxophone. I was beginning to regret my purchase and thought about exchanging it for the WX5. So I gave it a few more days. Days turned to weeks, and I am beginning to appreciate this instrument. Keep practicing those scales, breathing with the mouthpiece and you realize how this is such an amazing wind controller. I made a mistake thinking that this is a replacement for a saxophone in an apartment situation. In reality, you should think about how this instrument can be an extension to your musical endeavors. The possibilities you can do with the sounds and playability are endless. There are a few usable synths prebuilt, but I suggest using the Akai EWI 5000 Editor to really play and edit your sounds then save it to the user bank. Also there are synths out there that can be used if you plug the EWI as just a midi wind controller; unfortunately you can't upload other synth sounds into the controller. Definitely give it some time to get used to the instrument especially moving from one octave to another. Keep practicing and you'll appreciate that there's hardly any moving parts here. I was opposed at it first since horns have that tactile and key feedback. But with the touch sensitivity, it really felt I was playing an instrument from the future. Again, you just have to get used to it - think about when mobile phones shift from physical keyboards to the modern phones we have today. And here I am today still keeping my purchase and writing a review. I thank Akai for making a top-notch wind controller and continuing the support for the modern electronic wind musician.

If you are a musician traveler sometimes you would like to know if there is an all in one Headphone you can use for both, listen music but also for connect your instrument and play on the go! Love this ones!

plug n play. It's that simple. If you have a music program and are not interested in interface. this is what you need to get your electric guitar into your computer.

These area awesome headphones. I use these for music playback and also for recording and listening to electric and acoustic guitar. Comfortable, excellent sound. The supplied cords work great and they fold into a nice package. I should have ordered 2 pairs !

These should be standard in any electric music setup. I've been using them for years. Nice long power cable, built like a rock, with some filtering for noisy power. Don't cheap out around electricity, use the good stuff.

I am hearing music and my electric drum kit to a level I did not know even existed. I am amazed and wish I could listen to music and play music all day and night!

I have never seen/heard a speaker like this before! This is truly next level. I can hear every single instrument in the music I play on it- it's incredible. Though I received my first ever noise complaint from this thing when I got it, I love everything about it! Why won't my neighbours let me be free?! #Squares

I use the Stage box nake for small church music instrument (Guitar, piano, keyboard, E drum, 4 mic), it works great and strong.
