Description – SUNRISE MELODY M1 EWI Digital Wind Instrument

The SUNRISE MELODY M1 EWI is a beautifully engineered digital wind instrument designed for beginners and experienced musicians alike. Built from durable lightweight plastic and available in black or white, it offers the perfect balance of comfort, portability, and expressive play.

This electronic wind instrument features 26 high-quality timbres, allowing players to experiment with saxophone, flute, clarinet, trumpet, violin, synth tones, and more — all with a single instrument. Whether you're exploring orchestral, jazz, pop, electronic, or experimental music, the M1 opens endless creative possibilities.

With a 5-octave playing range, the M1 covers everything from low, warm tones to bright, soaring registers. The touch-sensitive keys provide effortless response, making it easier for new musicians to develop faster finger coordination without the resistance of traditional keys.

A standout feature is the 0–90 millisecond legato response, giving players fast articulation and smooth transitions between notes — perfect for expressive solos, technical passages, and realistic wind phrasing. Combined with ±3-cent tuning stability, the M1 offers professional-grade accuracy for beginner-friendly learning.

The M1 includes 4 fingering modes such as sax fingering, flute fingering, clarinet fingering, and EWI traditional mode. This makes it ideal for music teachers or multi-instrumentalists, as students can practise fingering styles that transfer directly to real acoustic instruments.

The built-in speaker provides clear audio for solo practice or small performances, while the USB-C rechargeable 1600mAh battery ensures extended playtime. Operating safely under ≤36V, the M1 is chargeable from power banks, laptops, wall adapters, or portable USB hubs.

With its polished finish, classic instrument styling, and compact body, the M1 is perfect for New Zealand’s school music rooms, community groups, street performers, travellers, and at-home practice sessions.
