Hi, great video. Could you please explain to me how did you set it up with your DAW? I've got the same midi keyboard and I use Ableton Live but can't make it sound yet. Thanks

I have a question. What is the Midi in and Midi out for? It's: USB to computer, then you have to connect keyboard's midi out to Streichfett's midi in and also viceversa?
An external USB power supply is included. It may be powered from a USB power bank or directly from a USB host device that supplies USB power. bhpho.to/3fwRWCv >Mark
Hello there! This is a very interesting product but, can it be used with ableton in order to modify sounds in the software? I would like to use it with Ableton but I can't find any ways to set it up and how it works (if it does).
Can anyone explain the set up here? I recently purchased the Streichfett and a Arturia 25 keyboard controller and I’m trying to figure out how to use the two together
+Wall OfNoise You have a point, but it may be alot more work and not offer the unique emulations offered with this fun little device. Please contact us via e-mail if you have additional questions: askbh@bandh.com>Mark
Richie Collins We did in fact use a computer in this video, but it's on the right, just out of frame so you can't see it. The computer is powering both the Akai MPK mini and the Waldorf Streichfett.
Hi Dehmanization001. We did in fact use a computer in this video, but it's on the right, just out of frame so you can't see it. The computer is powering both the Akai MPK mini and the Waldorf Streichfett.
RRivesNYC So was you using a pc program to control the midi to it or just using the pc to power them and then hooking the Akai to it from the midi out?
Exactly right! Connect to a controller and then to your amp - No PC required. Connect the Streichfett ?s audio output to your mixing console or your computer audio interface. Optionally, connect a suited stereo headphone (or active monitor speakers) to the Streichfett ?s headphone output. To play the Streichfett you need a MIDI master keyboard. Connect its MIDI output to the Streichfett ?s MIDI Input. If you want to use a computer with a MIDI interface, connect your interface ?s MIDI output to the Streichfett ?s MIDI input.

+Artemio Varela No problem at all - the 5-pin DIN MIDI Out of the SAMSON Carbon right in to the MIDI input of the Waldorf Streichfett . You will need a high-quality MIDI cable, so check out Hosa Technologies' 5' MIDI to MIDI Premium Cable. bhpho.to/1RkxPr2 >Mark
The MIDI Out is to connect to the MIDI input of an interface or controller. The MIDI I/O may also be used to exchange data between two Streichfetts. >Mark< Connections: In order to get started with your Streichfett you will need an power outlet or a suitable computer with an USB port. For the connection of the audio output you will need either a mixing console or an audio interface. You can also use a suitable headphone.

@@Rid-iculo-us On these string synths yes, this is how they sound best I think. I have a Streichfett, and the basic tones sound almost boring, something you can do with any random synth.
