Feature:
Complete, even batteries.

Quality:
Its solid, no worries, you are not going to break any keys. It looks good, civilians love it as well as musicians.

Value:
Definitely. Its a valuable tool for the price. Given the importance and demand of the business today. EWI players are capable of doing what no other midi instrument can. Price is right.

Desirability:
A nice addition to my setup. A plus in every way.

Sound:
It Sounds like 90% of sounds you hear in movies and tv.

Ease of Use:
At first its like any other wind instrument…not as easy as it seems but if you have any experience learning any musical instrument you will soon realize that its perfectly fine to do some research and spend a few weeks working on it before you take it out to your next gig. (It does help improve posture and dexterity on other woodwinds instruments. That’s a plus)

Support:
Have not used yet.

Overall:
Very satisfied. Unique, the best on the market, I will cote Michael Brecker “Thanks Akai”

Price: $329.00 Buy now!

User Reviews:
Feature:
The only thing I still can’t make fully functional is Tap Tempo and Note Repeat syncing with Reason. The one suggested by Akai works fine, but the tempo is not displayed in Reason (it says 0). This is the only reason for 9 for features. Everything else works great, lots of useful features.

Quality:
It’s really early to say, but seems durable. Well build, all the pads, knobs, sliders and buttons seem solid and feel great.

Value:
Payed 365 CAD for the new one. Great deal. Worth every cent.

Desirability:
Esthetically perfect. Great colors, looks really nice and modern.

Sound:
It’s the midi controller, so it doesn’t have any sounds.

Ease of Use:
I read lots of reviews with people having problems setting up the device and programming different controls. OK, I understand not everyone is technically strong and stuff, but I had no problems at all. Very easy to use, program, set up the way you need it.

Support:
Never had a need to contact them.

Overall:
All in all, great controller. Great features, endless possibilities when it comes to programming it and setting it up. Great integration with Reason so far. Would buy another one, no doubt.
