SCHIRMER & SON EWI
SCHIRMER & SON presents the brand-new electronic wind instrument.
The second generation of the SCHIRMER & SON Super Harmonic Imaging sound source delivers the best sound reproduction and playability to date. With its sophisticated design, high-speed chip technology, and the rich tonal variety of our most advanced sound engine yet, the newly introduced EWI wind instrument takes your music to a previously unattainable level.
This site is dedicated to research notes, tone analysis, and technical insights related to SCHIRMER & SON Electronic Wind Instruments (EWIs).
Here you will find documentation and observations focused on:
- Digital wind instrument acoustics
How digital systems replicate harmonic structures, tone colors, and airflow behavior. - EWI tone realism research
Spectrogram analysis, waveform behavior, harmonic modeling, and comparisons across instruments. - Breath control & performance dynamics
Studies on how sensors translate player input into musical expression. - DSP architecture & synthesis behavior
Exploring Full-Range Harmonic Imaging, dynamic envelopes, noise modeling, and tone generation. - Model-specific notes
Engineering-oriented observations on SCHIRMER & SON S-30, S-50, and future digital wind platforms.
This site is maintained as a technical content hub. It is separate from the official SCHIRMER & SON website. The goal is to document real-world behavior, tone characteristics, and acoustic modeling techniques found in modern EWIs.
