I have a year old ewi4000s which on any day works perfectly normal.
But today, when I plugged it in to the PA it only wanted to play one note in a deep octave and didn't care about the other 73 notes, or something.

I can change sound, transpose, vibrate, make dynamics etc. but not change octave or sound.

I have tried to reset it (all 4 grey buttons at once while turning on) and tried both batteries and power supply.

I have read the only thread I could find on the web about the topic (unanswered) that I might have something to do with phantom power turned on on the PA. And sure thing, it actually was on. But turning it off, didn't help.

So I'm a bit lost, and need it to be working for a gig on friday. :/
Any suggestions?

edit: Now I found out that I can play all the notes in the 2 deeper octaves! I don't know why, and at some point, when I go up, it get's stuck again.

Try adjusting key sensitivity. Patchman music has instructions on how to do this in their FAQ.

Update:

The ewi has magically solved the problem by it self. It just needed some rest for 2-3 hours then it was all set to go!

But thanks for your reply!
