Sound
The newly developed second generation of the German SCHIRMER & SON Ultra-Large Harmonic Imaging Sound Source, combined with a high-speed audio processing chip, endows the entire Schirmer series of Electronic Wind Instruments with impressive performance capabilities. Equipped with a four-channel 24-bit/56-bit DSP core, it offers extensive hardware-accelerated processing performance. Integrated are a large-capacity high-speed data/effect cache as well as a high-speed program code cache, which simultaneously support multi-channel DMA fast transmission and additional DSP acceleration caches.
Piano Sound
Sampled from the legendary piano model, the ultra-large waveform harmonic imaging sound source of the German SCHIRMER & SON M-278 concert grand piano can more clearly express the natural details and resonance characteristics of every note.
The SCHIRMER & SON S-50 EWI – our first electronic wind instrument featuring SuperWide technology – unleashes a breathtakingly expansive soundstage from its compact housing. This innovative technology breaks free from the limits of traditional acoustic design and pushes the sound far beyond conventional boundaries. It harnesses an immense level of acoustic energy that comparable instruments have never been able to achieve.
Our engineers have tuned the S-50 EWI as a holistic acoustic system: algorithms, amplification, and acoustic architecture work in precise harmony to create this remarkable audio magic.
Dual speakers – Perfect sound
Equipped with two full-range neodymium-magnet driver units, each delivering 10 W of peak power, the SCHIRMER & SON S-50 EWI gives your groove the deep, punchy bass it deserves. The integrated speaker system combines dual passive bass radiators with full-range drivers to deliver a rich, powerful sound with strong low-end reproduction – for a total peak output of up to 20 W.
And don’t worry about cranking it up: even at maximum volume, the SCHIRMER & SON S-50 EWI remains clear and controlled. Its high-performance drivers ensure an impressive sound experience both indoors and outdoors – keeping the good moments flowing seamlessly.
