Important: The scenarios below are not mutually exclusive. The EWI5000 sends out audio
from its Line Out, from its Phones jack, and wirelessly to the receiver (if it is paired) all at the
same time. You can, for example, play EWI5000's audio wirelessly while also listening through
the headphones.
The exception is when the EWI5000 is connected to your computer and being used as a MIDI
controller (the fourth scenario in this section): it will send MIDI messages to your computer but
not send any audio. You can enable or disable audio in this scenario by pressing and holding
the Power Button until the Preset LED or User LED lights solid (audio is enabled) or flashes
(audio is disabled).

To play EWI5000's audio wirelessly:
1. Use the included USB cable to connect the wireless
receiver to your computer (powered on). Alternatively,
connect the receiver to the included USB power
adapter, and connect the adapter to a power outlet.
The receiver's Pair LED will flash.
2. Press the EWI5000's Power Button to power it on.
The Preset LED next to its Bank Button will flash.
3. Set the EWI5000's Wireless Switch to On. It will
automatically "pair" to the wireless receiver. When
paired, the receiver's Pair LED and the EWI5000's
Preset LED or User LED will light solid. The wireless
receiver will now send the EWI5000's audio to your
computer. (The wireless receiver's Line Outs will not
play the signal from your computer.)
Note: If the connection is lost, you can manually pair
the EWI5000 to the receiver by pressing the receiver's
Pair Button and then pressing the EWI5000's Power
Button once.
To play EWI5000's audio through an external amplifier,
audio interface, etc.:
1. Use a standard 1/4" (6.35mm) cable to connect the
EWI5000's Line Out to the line-level input of your
keyboard amplifier, audio interface, etc.
Important: The Line Out is a stereo output. If you are
connecting to a mono input (like those on most
keyboard amplifiers, audio interfaces, etc.), use a TS
cable instead of a TRS cable.
2. Press the EWI5000's Power Button to power it on.
3. Set the EWI5000's Wireless Switch to Off.
