    2 questions. Can we do all 12 scales without the transpose key? Is there a fingering more akin to clarinet?

    • @ewi_den
      @ewi_den 10 місяців тому

      I don't understand the question completely. So, if I don't answer exactly what you asking. Please ask again. 1. There is a transposition feature in the EWI programming where you can set the key for it's transposition. Examples: Concert Key, Eb like Alto Sax, Bb like clarinet. And Yes, you can set it for any key. However, you can't change the setting while playing. 2. some fingerings are the same as Clarinet, and most of the upper octave is exactly the same. Inside the EWI DEN are some documents entitled "Home Fingerings," and one of them is the "Home Fingerings for Clarinet." It will illustrate the fingering common with the clarinet when the EWI set to EWI STANDARD FINGERINGS. I hope this was helpful.

    Why the circle of 4ths 🤔

    • @ewi_den
      @ewi_den 11 місяців тому

      That is a great question! I'll do a video about it. The answer is important and a bit lengthy. The short answer is that Keys and chord roots moving in fourths are Western music's most common harmonic movement. If we practice our scales in the circle of fourths, we are getting prepared for that movement. Example: D-7 / / / G7 / / / C∆7 / / / | / / / /|| This is a 2 5 1 the most common chord progression in Jazz Standards. Notice the Roots are in 4ths D - G - C. Hope that is helpful!

      It means the air doesn’t flow through the instrument. It still operates on air pressure blown into the instrument. Important technique is to leak air on the sides of your embouchure to facilitate the response of tonguing. It’s is a great system, and becomes comfortable quickly.

    I was looking at the different modes for the NuEVI and I had three question 1. What is the cv model 2. What is LiPo 3. What is the ball bearing canister

    • @ewi_den
      @ewi_den Рік тому

      CV = Control Voltage - used to control synths. CV indicates which note (event) to play: a different voltage for each key pressed; those voltages are typically connected to one or more oscillators, thus producing the required pitches. Such a method implies that the synthesizer is monophonic. LiPO is a Lithium Battery. The Ball Bearing Canister is a smooth octave mechanism for the NuEVI.

    how do you get such clean articulation on the nurad? i just got mine and tonguing just doesn't do anything it seems

    • @ewi_den
      @ewi_den Рік тому

      Thank you. A lot has to do with allowing air to leak from the sides of your embouchure, which is the proper technique for a closed-air system of the NuRAD. I actually tongue behind my front teeth. Like saying a T or D sound. If you need some help, email me at curtsipe@me.com and we can arrange a meeting.

    What synth did you use with the NURAD

    • @ewi_den
      @ewi_den Рік тому

      EVI-NER by Davidson Carpenter. It's a soft synth, $15.00 available at : www.davidsonaudioandmultimedia.com/products/evi-ner

    I had an EWI5000 before had an EWI1000, then EWI3000. It does suprised me that closed system on 1000 is much more responsive and expressive than open system once you get used to it! EWI modules actually had the chord rotator before 4000s btw, including 1000, though it can only be used when controlling via midi not internal sound, only if you get a very rare and expensive combo with AKAI AX600 (a keyboard synth with an EWI1000 controller jack), the midi rotator gets easier to program and could be used for internal sound. One thing I realy loved a lot on modules before 4000s is the external input, a genius design that never showed in any other windsynths. It's a shame that AKAI didn't keep those wonderful features and turned into cheesy sampled sound and lagy bluetooth on newer modules😢 NuRad defintely is much better on performance, but 1000 and 3000 still have the most special EWI sound to me.

    I received my NURAD about 3 weeks ago and because I've had my EWI-USB and EWI-4000s using Bite CC2 for vibrato, so I tried to use the NURAD the same way. However with both the samplemodeling and the SWAM I fail to get any CC2 output, hence no vibrato. I've gone over the settings and I'm sure that I have the vibrato set correctly to Bite etc. My EWI's work fine doing Bite CC2 vibrato. Nor can I use the left hand Thumb lever to get CC2 sent out, although I can just hear a bit of vibrato, even though I do not see any of the dials (samplemodeling & SWAM) showing input. When using Kontakt I can see the Mod Wheel icon moving. Today I discovered that I can get some vibrato by setting the NURAD Bite to Aftertouch. Things sound much better but I have no clear control over it. So, my question for you is: Do you have any suggestions for fixing the Bite/ Thumb Lever CC2 issue? Am I missing something ? Does your NURAD produce proper CC2 messages? Unfortunately, Larry Nybo has not replied to any of my e-mail in over 2 weeks, which is very disappointing, and reflects very poorly on his company. I was very happy with your NURAD video tutorial. It's so much more helpful than simply reading the manual.

      Oh, this is a great comment!!! Yes, Cole is my son. And Sean Reeser was my sax student. I love those guys. They all met at ECU. I'm glad they are starting to get some traction. Cole and I will be spending a few days together in July, and then again in August. Hopefully, we'll get to make some music.

    You might want to do a series for the EWI Akai Solo. I seem's to be getting popular.

    • @ewi_den
      @ewi_den Рік тому

      Thank you! I've been trying to make my videos for as many EWIs as possible. When there is a specific issue, sometimes I'll address a specific EWI. All the Akai EWIs have very similar operations, and if someone chooses the Ewi Standard Fingerings, then they respond precisely the same regarding pitch. This fingering system can be used on any Electronic wind instrument that has the EWI standard fingering as an option. All the Akai and also the NuRAD. I hope this helps.

    • @ewi_den
      @ewi_den Рік тому

      It's a VST version of the 1970's Lyricon 2. It responds very much like the EVI-NER. It just has a different pallet of sounds and controls.
