  If the software isn't recognizing your Akai EWI USB, it could be due to a couple of reasons. One possibility is that the EWI USB was connected after the software application started. To fix this, restart the software application, but this time, make sure the EWI USB is already plugged in. Another reason could be that the EWI USB is plugged into a USB hub. Try unplugging it from the hub and connecting it directly to your computer. Then, close and reopen the software.

  If you're not getting any sound from your Akai EWI USB, there are a couple of things to check: First, make sure the volume on your computer, speakers, or headphones isn't too low and increase it, if necessary. Also, ensure that your software application is set to receive MIDI data from the EWI USB. The EWI USB should be listed as an active MIDI source in the software application (“USB Audio Device” for Windows XP users or “EWI USB” for Mac or Windows Vista users). Adjust the MIDI settings in the Preferences menu, which can be found under the Tools menu.
