CONTENTS INTRODUCTION

WHO IS SCHMIDT? (”SH-MITT“)

In an ideal world, Schmidt is the synthesizer you have always been dreaming of. Well, anyway, this is the synthesizer

Mr. Stefan Smith, err, Schmidt – the creator of Schmidt – has always dreamed of. And – again in an ideal world –

you and Mr. Schmidt are sharing the same dream (in terms of synthesizers, of course). However, your new Schmidt

synthesizer is a very personal and very special affair. It is the vision of an engineer dedicated to sound, conceived and

perfected in close collaboration with musicians and music producers alike, brought to live in the most uncompromising

way imaginable. Now this dream has nally come true and is right here in front of you within an arm‘s reach –

congratulations if this arm is yours! Of course, Mr Schmidt and everybody else who has had the pleasure of having

been involved in turning this dream into reality, would like to say a big „Thank you!“ to you. We all hope that your new

Schmidt synthesizer will serve you as a creative, inspirational musical instrument for many years to come.

SCHMIDT‘S SKILLS

Schmidt‘s sound generation engine features virtually everything that subtractive synthesis is endowed with – and even

more so: The Oscillator section offers functions to shape very complex sounds with that probably have never been

available in the analog domain thus far. The powerful lter section Schmidt offers is like a fully programmable modular

synthesizer system. You have plenty of modulation routings that excel even your wildest dreams – and rest assured,

we know that synthesizer players like you tend to have really wild dreams. Sometimes, you even get up late at night to

tweak some controls, don‘t you? See, this is how well we know you!

USER MANUAL CONVENTIONS

In this manual we use some format conventions, hoping to make things a lot clearer. You will nd the following

formats:

• Cutoff represents a physical control on Schmidt‘s panel you are asked to work on.

• Space represents a parameter name.

• ON represents a parameter value/state that is indicated either by a lit LED or as data readout on

Schmidt‘s LCD. We take it you know that „LED“ stands for „light-emitting diode“ whereas „LCD“ means „liquid

crystal display“. We thought we should point this out though as these terms keep popping up throughout the

text.

Represents some important note. It is so important we do not even know as yet what it is. Further

reading seems thus recommended!

Sometimes you will be asked to perform a certain sequence of steps. Such a sequence looks e.g. like this:

1 - Select Ramp = ”CLK” on both LFOs.

2 - Select any waveshape (”LFO MODE”) on LFO VCF 1. This setting, in combination with the

LFO 1 Rate setting, determines the waveshape that modulates VCF 1.

3 - Select desired waveshape of LFO VCF 2. This setting, in combination with the LFO 2 Rate setting,

determines the waveshape that modulates VCF 2.

4 - Hit Ramp in LFO VCF 2 again. The „Special“ LED lights up and indicates that both LFOs are now

running in sync.

5 - Alter Mode (waveshape), Rate and Time settings of both LFOs as you please.

We tried to keep this user manual as compact as possible. That‘s why we deliberately avoided descriptions of

synthesizer basics. If you are new to synthesizer technology and sound generation in general, we advise you to go

on a quest for some secondary literature that you can nd on the web or in specialist magazines, like e.g. Keyboard

Magazin or Sound On Sound. Always a good read are classic books like those written by Allen Strange, Devarahi,

Beaver & Krause, or others.

PREPARATIONS PREPARATIONS

PREPARATIONS

UNPACKING

Schmidt was delivered to you in a custom-made high-quality ight case. Every time you take Schmidt with you on the

road or to recording sessions, using this tailor-made case is recommended since it is the only adequate way to keep

Schmidt really save from harm and the rigors of traveling. In a pinch, it serves well as a bench or doorstop, too.

When unpacking Schmidt, please take its relatively high weight (tipping the scales at about 35 kg / 70 lbs) into account

– actually, it is really heavy. Shifting Schmidt by two people is a wise thing to do unless you are keen on hernia.

People with Polymoog or CS80 experience will probably shrug this caveat off with a smile but don‘t say we didn‘t warn

you.

Because of Schmidt‘s high weight you should carefully pick an adequately robust support or table as well. Make sure

the support / table is large and sturdy enough to carry Schmidt safely, even during your wildest keyboard

performances. Beer crates – full or empty – will not do a proper job… at least not on the synthesizer – but perhaps on

your performance. Feel free to share yourself with us.

Please make sure the ventilation grills on Schmidt‘s rear panel are not obstructed. There is a lot of electronics inside,

and be sure we did our best to keep those little electrons busy all the time and bring them out in a sweat!

ADJUSTING THE FRONT PANEL

Schmidt‘s front panel can be adjusted to various angles. Raise or lower the front panel and the front panel support

as you feel most comfortable with. Make sure the support locks safely into the recesses on the underside of the front

panel.

CONNECTIONS

Power

Connect the mains socket to the power outlet. Schmidt works with voltages ranging from 110VAC to 240VAC and can

be connected to any power outlet all over the world. If that isn‘t true internationalism, we don‘t know what is.

Headphones

Connect stereo headphones to the Phones socket on the left of the panel. You can control its volume independently,

using the Phones control. Be careful not to blow your eardrums.

Audio Outputs

All audio outs are 6.3 mm (1/4“) unbalanced jacks sporting line level.

Stereo Output L / R:

Provides the stereo master output signal. Level is governed by the Volume control.

Single Voice Output 1 – 8:

Taps the signals of all eight voices individually. The routing of voices 1 to 8 to outputs 1 to 8 is preset in hardware.

Their respective output level is also preset and independent of the Volume control setting.

Same function as MIDI IN / OUT sockets.

A Utility menu determines whether Schmidt will receive MIDI data through its USB port or through the

MIDI DIN sockets. Please refer to page 68 ”Global Functions / Utility menu / USB/MIDI select“.

Control Inputs

These inputs can be used to control various functions in real-time. They can be assigned to specic parameters, and

boy, does Schmidt have many parameters (just in case you haven‘t noticed yet).

For instant Joe Zawinul renditions, the next bit is for you:

Control Inputs A 1 - 4:

Connect up to four footswitches here to control up to four on/off or toggle functions. The assignment procedure will be

covered later as there are various types of footswitches around that all have different types of polarity, latched

operation etc.

• Control input A 1 provides a Sustain function.

• Control input A 2 provides a Sostenuto function.

• Control inputs A 3 and A 4 can be assigned to several functions (not yet implemented!)

Control Inputs B 1 – 4:

Connect up to four expression pedals or external control voltages here to control up to four parameter values

continuously. The assignment procedure will also be covered later on page 54, section „Performance Controllers“.

These inputs accept voltages from 0V to +5V.

• Control inputs B 1 to B 3 can be assigned to several functions.

• Control input B 4 provides a volume control function.

Warning: Never exceed the external control voltages of +5V or serious damages may occur!

These features will not only keep your ngers busy but also your feet. Make your band‘s guitarist look pathetic while

you are stomping away on your Schmidt pedal board. But do not try to sling Schmidt around your neck while you are

at it…

PREPARATIONS PREPARATIONS

FIRST ENCOUNTER

We suppose you are by now hot on getting a rst impression of Schmidt other than a visual one. This is how to get

some sounds out of Schmidt without the bother. All explanations concerning ”why, when, and what“ will be covered

later. Enjoy yourself, get carried away... but please do not forget to continue reading this manual some time later. We

know it is hard but…

POWERING UP

Bring Schmidt to live using the Power switch on the rear panel. Schmidt will be idle for about three seconds while

booting. Once he is done with that, he is eagerly waiting for your input.

Warning: Handle Volume and Phones controls very carefully. Schmidt can produce excessive levels that

could possibly be harmful to your hearing – or your cat!

LISTENING TO PRESETS

Schmidt has a memory capacity of 1024 internal sound settings, called Presets. A distinction has to be made between

Single and Multi presets. In Single Mode, Schmidt produces one sound at a time, the same all across the entire

keyboard. In Multi Mode, Schmidt is capable of producing up to eight different sounds at a time that can be stacked,

layered or divided across the keyboard. All presets are easily controlled and managed using the Edit and Preset

sections in the lower right corner of the front panel.

After powering up, Schmidt is in Preset Load Mode which allows for immediate access to the presets. Have a look at

the Preset / Edit / Global sections in the lower right corner of the front panel.

Loading Single Presets:

1 - Hit Mode until the SINGLE LED lights up.

2 - Hit Preset up/down or turn Value control to step/scroll through the Single presets. The LCD (liquid

crystal display, you remember?) shows bank number as well as preset number and name.

3 - Hit Enter to load the selected Single preset.

Hit the Quick Load key to enable the Quick Load option. Now you do not need to hit Enter anymore to load a selected

preset.

Preset

Single/Multi-Presets load, save, name, compare

Hit Bank up/down to select the Single preset bank. The Quick Load option also works for bank selection.

Adjust the Phones and/or Volume controls to a comfortable listening volume. Again, take care of your ears (”huh,

whatcha sayin‘?“).

Use joystick, pitch and modulation wheels as desired but please bear in mind that not every preset necessarily

makes use of these. The complete set of functions of the left-hand panel will be covered on page 59, section Real

Time Controllers.

Tweaking Presets

Unlock the front panel settings by hitting Edit Enable to tweak presets. Simply reload the preset to return to the

version previously stored in memory. Of course you can store edited presets. The store function will be covered later.

As soon as you turn a control or hit a switch, the LCD will show the name of the corresponding parameter as well as

the value stored in memory and the edited value for about three seconds. After that, the screen will return to its normal

state.

Loading Multi Presets:

1- Hit Mode until the MULTI LED lights up.

2 - Hit Preset up/down or turn Value control to step/scroll through the Multi presets.

3 - Hit Enter to load the selected Multi preset.

Hit Quick Load to enable Quick Load option. Now you do not need to hit Enter anymore to load the selected preset.

Hit Bank up/down to select the Multi preset bank. The Quick Load option also works for bank selection.

FUNCTION OVERVIEW FUNCTION OVERVIEW

FUNCTION OVERVIEW

Now that you have got a vague idea of how impressive Schmidt can sound, you might be curious to learn more about

its inner secrets. In this section, you will – step by step – nd out about Schmidt‘s features and what is going on under

the hood of your new mighty synthesizer.

FRONTPANEL LAYOUT

On the frontpanel, you will nd all the sections spread out in front of you from left to right, according to the signal path.

About 95% of the sound generation functions can be accessed without using the LCD and menus. That means, even

though it is quite a complex beast, Schmidt is pretty intuitive to work on once you are familiar with the way its functions

are organized and accessed.

As you have already learned, Schmidt is an eight-voice polyphonic synthesizer boasting real analog signal

generation. To be more accurate, the audio signal path is fully analog for the biggest part. All modulation routings are

digitally controlled in order to provide outstanding results at the highest possible degree of precision. Let‘s have a peek

at Schmidt‘s guts on the following page.

FUNCTION OVERVIEW FUNCTION OVERVIEW

SIGNALPATH

Above you see a brief overview of Schmidt‘s signal path: Four OSCILLATORS (two of them with additional Sub

Oscillator) send their signals into a routing matrix which is called GROUP IN. Here, each Oscillator signal is routed into

the lter section which provides three parallel signal paths. Filter Section Group 1 and 2 are identical and pretty

complex in themselves. They can shape two entirely different timbres out of the incoming Oscillator signals. The third

lter section VCF 3 is an add-on to fatten up things a bit more. In the GROUP OUT section, the three signals are

mixed down into a stereo sum which is fed into the Level and Panning Modulation section, and nally into the master

VCA. This one controls the master volume before the nal stereo signal is sent to the outputs. Whew!

Using our trusty old magnifying glass, we will go much deeper into detail soon. We will follow the signalpath from left to

right:

Let‘s have a look at the Oscillator section rst (left handed):

• Oscillator 1 and 2 (each with Sub Oscillators) feed their signals into Group In 1 and/or Group In 2.

• Oscillator 3 and 4 also feed their respective signals into Group In 1 and/or Group In 2.

• Oscillator 2 can modulate Oscillator 3 (frequency modulation and ring modulation) and can be hard-synced to it

as well for even more timbral variety.

• Oscillator 4 is ring-modulated with Oscillator 1.

Each Oscillator is equipped with more or less complex modulation routings (essentially frequency/pitch and pulse-

width) with their own dedicated modulation sources.

You will soon get an idea why, even on Oscillator level, Schmidt is capable of creating very complex timbres that go

way beyond conventional analog synthesizers.

The next section of the signal path is split into two parallel groups that will generate two different timbres at the same

time:

Each group comprises the input router (Group In) and two lters. The VCF is a more or less old-fashioned four-pole

lter (24 dB) that can morph between its different lter response characteristics.

The Dual Filter (DF) is merely a pair of two lters that can be combined with each other to produce a variety of

different response characteristics. VCF and Dual Filter each have a different character and ensure a maximum of

tonal and timbral exibility.

Group In 1 sends each Oscillator signal into the VCF and/or one or both inputs (A/B) of the Dual Filter. Apart from

that, the output of the Dual Filter can be fed back into VCF 1. Input B of the VCF can be used to control the cut-off

frequency. Mind-boggling? Not really. Take a minute or two to recapitulate the signal path up to this point. Group In 2

works the same way. In addition to that, all Oscillator signals can as well be routed to VCF 3 which is a traditional low-

pass lter.

The Group Out sums the output signals of all lter outputs into a single signal which is now modulated in terms of

level and pan position. You can have two different sounds in parallel at this point. They can be panned / cross-faded

by the Panning Mod section. The Master VCA generates a nal, global volume envelope and the signals are routed to

the various outputs. Please take another minute to recapitulate the second half of the signal path. It is easier than you

might believe at rst sight.

On the front panel, you will nd all the sections spread out in front of you from left to right, according to the signal

path. About 95% of the sound generation functions can be accessed without using the LCD and menus. That means,

even though it is quite a complex beast, Schmidt is pretty intuitive to work on once you are familiar with the way its

functions are organized and accessed.

PROGRAMMING SOUNDS

In this following chapter, we will dig even deeper and nd out about the inner secrets of each section. You will learn

everything about all functions and how to use them. Please read carefully and enjoy while you are at it.

OSCILLATOR SECTION

Schmidt‘s Oscillator section is denitely outstanding (we are a bit proud of that, as you may have noticed already).

You will nd lots and lots of routing and modulation options that yield very impressive and complex sounds even on

oscillator level. The main assets of Schmidt‘s sound generation are ring and pulse-width modulation – with some

pretty weird details that might be new even to you! By the way, the Oscillators are truly analog with digital

control to ensure most precise tuning, tracking, and modulation.

By taking a look at the Oscillator section, you will nd one thing that is common of all of Schmidt‘s modules: Each

section (oscillators, lters, panning, VCA) has its own dedicated modulation source (envelopes, LFOs etc.). That is

why you will not nd a modulation matrix but lots of modulation sources directly placed within the sound generating /

shaping modules which helps immediacy a lot in our humble opinion.

The Oscillator section features four Oscillators, each with a different scope of functions. Here you will nd all

modulation routings and sources relevant to the Oscillator as well.

First, we will check out the functions of each oscillator separately. With the next step we will learn about interaction

(modulation) between the various modules.

OSCILLATOR SECTION – PROGRAMMING OSCILLATOR SECTION – PROGRAMMING

OSCILLATOR 1

Oscillator 1 has some pretty nifty tricks up his sleeve to produce complex timbres. We call it Multi PWM. Its function is

pretty unique and rather complex, so please indulge yourself some time for careful study.

Waveform Generation and Modulation Type / Operation Mode controls:

• Noise Modulation: Pitch of Oscillator 1 is modulated by a noise signal. Controls modulation depth.

• Semitone:Detunes Oscillator 1 up or down by seven semitones.

• Detune:Detunes Oscillator 1 up or down by one semitone, respectively 10 cent up / down

(if Fine key is pressed).

• Kbd Scale:Alters the Detune depending on the played note on the keyboard. Reference point is key A3:

1/2: Two octaves below A3 quadruples Detune; two octaves above A3 quarters Detune.

1/4: Two octaves below A3 doubles Detune; two octaves above A3 halves Detune.

OFF: Detune is independent of the played note on the keyboard.

The Kdb Scale function is useful to control the beat frequency between the oscillators more precise for lower and

higher note ranges.

• Octave:Octave setting of Oscillator 1.

• Sub Oscillator: Octave setting of Sub Oscillator 1 (square wave).

No LED active: Sub Oscillator is not active.

Please note: The octave setting of the Sub Oscillator is independent of the main Oscillator, i. e. the Sub Oscillator can

have a higher setting than the main Oscillator.

If main and Sub Oscillator have the same octave setting, the output signal can be almost inaudible due to phase and

frequency cancellation.

When Sand PWM are enabled, the Oscillators ( Osc 1 as well as 2 and 3) produce two sawtooth waves that are

phase-modulated – that means, their respective peaks are shifted against each other. The shift amount is determined

by the Center parameter which can be modulated by the PWM LFO.

Multi PWM

When MULTI PWM is enabled, the remaining controls of the Oscillator 1 section become active. But now it is about

time to clear up what is meant by ”Multi PWM”:

In Multi PWM mode, Oscillator 1 generates four pulse-waves in parallel that are combined in various ways to produce

complex waveforms. There are several parameters with which to control the shape of the resulting waveform:

• Space / Width: Space and Width determine the ratio between peaks and troughs of the four pulse-waves.

Depending on this ratio, the resulting waveform takes on different shapes. Please refer to the

upper section of the gure on page 20. These two parameters can be controlled

independently by two dedicated LFOs.

• Mode:Beyond that, modes 1to 3 determine the way how the four pulse-waves are combined. As

a result, each mode again produces different waveshapes. Please refer to the lower section

of the gure on page 20.

In mode 4 (OSC 4 > RINGMOD), the resulting waveform that is produced by the process of

mode 3 is additionally ring-modulated by Oscillator 4.

The gure on the following page shows all available modes and their operation.
