OUTSIDE THE USA?: PATCHMAN MUSIC DOES NOT SHIP GEAR OUTSIDE THE USA - NO EXCEPTIONS! If you live outside the USA and wish to order an Akai product, you will need to have someone in the USA order AND PAY FOR the gear for you (credit cards/checks must be based in the USA). If this is not possible, then please contact a Akai dealer in your country. Of course, as always, all Patchman Music soundbanks and software CAN be shipped overseas.

Recently, a satisfied customer wrote: "I purchased my first WX5 and VL70-m from [major online dealer] and I ended up taking it back because I was frustrated with the results I was getting and couldn't get any 'real' help from them in that department. A year later I talked with Matt at Patchman and he guided me in the right direction, set me up with the right tools and I am a happy camper. Sometimes I sound like I am on commission as a salesman for him, but that sure isn't the case. I just feel very strongly about the help I received then and now. An old saying goes 'Dance with the one that you brought you to the dance'."

Akai MP9 AC Adaptor for EWI4000S

 Replacement AC Adaptor for the Akai EWI3000m Power Supply at Patchman Music at Patchman Music

Replacement for Akai EW3000m AC Adaptor Power Supply

The Akai model replacement AC Adaptor for the Akai EWI3000m has long been discontinued but Patchman Music now offers a 100% compatible adaptor. We have tested this model and it works perfectly with the Akai EWI3000m as well as the Yamaha WT11, RY30, TG100, and others. This adaptor is actually BETTER than the original Akai brand power supply as it is smaller, lighter, more powerful, and accepts a wider range of input voltage (universal). This adaptor features 115-230V @ 47-63 Hz AC input, 15v 800ma DC output, 2.1mm connector, and a 4.5-foot cable. Tip / center is positive.

It never hurts to have a spare. Stock up now!

Akai EWI4000s Mouthpiece Screw Patchman Music

Replacement Mouthpiece SCREW for EWI4000S & EWI USB

Original factory fresh new replacement Mouthpiece Screw for the EWI4000s and EWI USB. We strongly recommend replacing the mouthpiece screw whenever you replace the mouthpiece on the EWI4000s and EWI USB as this screw tends to rust, strip, and seize up from moisture. If the screw rusts then a costly repair may be in order as the mouthpiece needs to be carefully cut off. Replace it now and save yourself the hassle and expense later on. Quick and simple installation using a small 3/16" Phillips head screwdriver.

 WX Recorder Cream

YAMAHA Recorder Cream

New 2 gram vial of genuine Yamaha Recorder Cream for use on the internal rubber mouthpiece seals on the EWI3000, EWI3020, WX5, WX11, or WX7. Use this cream regularly on the internal area of the rubber mouthpiece parts to protect, lubricate, maintain softness, and reduce aging and cracking. NOT for use on key switches or on the outside of the mouthpiece. Put a little on the inside of the mouthpiece and on the rubber gasket where the mouthpiece slides on and meets the body to allow easy future removal of the mouthpiece. It helps keep the rubber gasket moisturized to prevent it from cracking and tearing Don't leave home without it! Highly recommended. (Not an Akai product).

NOTE: NOT for use with the Akai EWI4000s or EWI USB (there is no need).
