Setup and Connection
Package Contents
The Waldorf Streichfett package comes complete with:
• the Waldorf Streichfett module
• an external USB power supply (DC 5V / 1A)
• a printed quick start guide
w You can also download additional material and
software here: www.waldorfmusic.com
Please ensure all the items above are included. If some-
thing is missing, contact your local dealer.
We recommend that you keep the original packing mate-
rial for future transport.
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. Last but not least you will
most likely need a MIDI master keyboard.
+ To connect the devices:
1. Turn all units off.
2. Connect the Streichfett´s audio output 4 + 5 to
your mixing console or your computer audio in-
terface. Optionally connect a suited stereo
headphone to the Streichfett´s headphone output
6 .
3. To play the Streichfett you need a MIDI master
keyboard. Connect its MIDI Out to the Streich-
fett´s MIDI In 2.
4. If you want to use a computer with a MIDI inter-
face, connect your interface´s MIDI Out to the
Streichfett´s MIDI In 2.
5. Optionally you can connect the Streichfett´s USB
port 3 with a USB cable to your computer. After
11 Streichfett Reference Manual
that, the Streichfett is automatically available as a
MIDI device and will also receive power via the
USB connection.
6. Without a computer, you need to connect the
USB power supply that came with the Streichfett
to the USB port 3. After that, the Streichfett is
ready for work!
7. Then switch on the computer (if connected), the
mixing console and finally the amplifier or active
monitor speakers.
w If you do not choose to connect a mixing console,
you can patch the Streichfett’s output signals di-
rectly to an amplifier or an audio interface. Use an
input usually called Line, Aux or Tape input.
m Before connecting and disconnecting the Streichfett
from a power supply source, turn your amplifier’s
volume control all the way down to avoid damage
due to on / off switching noise. The Streichfett pro-
duces a high level output signal. Please take care
that the connected playback device is suitable for
the high level of an electronic instrument. Never
use the mic or phono input of the connected amp!
The USB Connection
Using a USB cable you can connect the Streichfett to your
computer observing the following system requirements:
• Windows PC: Windows XP or newer is recommen-
ded, a USB port
• Linux PC, a USB port
• Apple: Intel Mac with Mac OS X 10.6 or newer, a
USB port
The USB connection of the Streichfett allows:
• Power supply via USB when connected to a suitable
computer
• Power supply via the USB power supply
• Transmitting and receiving MIDI data
• Dumping of firmware updates to the Streichfett
• Data exchange with suitable computer software or
another Streichfett
w Make sure to use a fullspeed USB port on your
computer as well as a USB compatible cable to
avoid problems with data transmission.
Basic Operation
Streichfett Reference Manual 12
Basic Operation
Powering On / Off
The Streichfett is ready-to-operate after the connection to
the USB power supply or via USB cable to a suitable
computer.
Editing
In spite of the Streichfett’s compactness, it uses a sophisti-
cated user interface allowing fast editing of any control.
Turning a dial clockwise increases the corresponding
value; turning it counterclockwise decreases it. Move a
switch to its desired position. Keep in mind that most of
the switches offer more than two states.
The Streichfett Controls
13 Streichfett Reference Manual
The Streichfett Controls
The Waldorf Streichfett consists of numerous sound-
shaping components.
Volume
The Volume knob controls the
Streichfett’s audio and headphone
volume. The audio output always
delivers a line level signal.
Strings Section
Registration
This is the oscillator bank, equalizer and formants setting
for the sound of the Strings section. Moving this knob
morphs smoothly through Violin, Viola, Cello, Brass,
Organ, Choir as well as combinations of the registrations.
The Streichfett Controls
Streichfett Reference Manual 14
Octaves Selector
This is the octave setting for the Strings. Three positions
are available:
• 8va: One octave higher than Base octave.
• Both: Base octave mixed with the 8va octave.
• Base: The normal octave setting.
Crescendo
This is the attack rate for the Strings envelope.
Release
The release rate for the Strings envelope. Sustain is always
at 100%, so there is no need for a decay setting.
Ensemble Switch
Switches the Ensemble effect for Strings on or off. This
effect adds more depth and width to the sound. We re-
commend to always activate it for strings and choir
sounds.
The ensemble effect is an advanced chorus effect which
consists of three delay lines with different modulation
speeds and phase shiftings.
Ensemble Selector
Three modes for the Ensemble effect can be selected here:
• String (left position): the classic string machine en-
semble effect.
• String + Chorus (middle position): Combination of
string and chorus for maximum depth and width of
the sound.
• Chorus (right position): The classic chorus effect.
Balance
Mixes the signals of the Strings and Solo section. The
leftmost position selects Strings only, while on the far right
only the Solo section is audible. In the middle position,
both Strings and Solo are mixed with full scale.
The Streichfett Controls
15 Streichfett Reference Manual
Solo Section
Tone
This is the sound setting for the Solo section. Moving this
knob blends smoothly through sounds named Bass, E-
Piano, Clavi, Synth and Pluto. Note that sounds only have
a faint resemblance to their names, which is common for
the genre of String synthesizers.
w Keep in mind that the Bass tone is played one
octave lower than the other tones.
Split Selector
This switch allows to set a key split for the Solo section.
Three positions are available:
• Low (left position): Only keys lower than the split
key will sound. Holding down one key when "Low"
is selected sets the split key to the current note being
held.
• Layer (middle position): Solo plays on all keys.
• High (right position): Only keys higher or equal to
the split key will sound. Set the split key by holding
down desired key while switching to "High".
Tremolo
This adjusts both the rate and depth of the stereo tremolo
effect.
Attack
In addition to set the attack rate of the envelope, settings
from leftmost to 10 o´clock position control how much of
The Streichfett Controls
Streichfett Reference Manual 16
a percussive click sound is added, each time a key is
pressed.
Envelope Selector
This switch controls Envelope operation for the Solo sec-
tion:
• In the left position, the envelope has no sustain and
decays immediately after the initial attack. This is
perfect for clavinet or bass sounds.
• In the right position, notes are held at full sustain
level until keys are released.
Decay / Release
Decay or release rate for the envelope.
Effect Section
Depth
Controls the selected effect parameters depending on the
Effect selector setting.
Effect Selector
This switch selects which effect can be adjusted by the
Depth potentiometer. Note that all three effects can be
combined simultaneously.
• Animate: A Low Frequency Oscillator (LFO) modu-
lates the Strings registration. Both depth and rate are
controlled by the Depth potentiometer.
The Streichfett Controls
17 Streichfett Reference Manual
• Phaser: Classic phase shifter effect. Feedback, depth
and rate are adjustable with Depth according to the
most pleasing settings we could find.
• Reverb: Reverberation with adjustment of mix, size
and dampening of the ambient room according to
useful settings.
Memory Section
The Memory section offers twelve patches for accessing
and storing sound settings. Three banks of four sounds
each are available.
For selecting a sound, switch to the desired Bank [A, B or
C] and press one of the buttons labeled 1 to 4 in order to
access e.g. sound C4.
For storing a sound, press and hold one of the four buttons
1..4 until it blinks, select the desired Bank and then relea-
se the button.
The Streichfett Controls
Streichfett Reference Manual 18
Additional Functions
Modulation Wheel
The Modulation wheel sets the vibrato level and speed of
Strings and Solo sections.
The state of the Modulation wheel is stored with the
sound program. When you recall a sound program, the
vibrato settings are also restored. As soon as you move the
Modulation wheel, this replaces the stored setting.
w If you select the Pluto tone in the Solo section,
which contains an additional vibrato, this is syn-
chronized to the vibrato of the Modulation wheel.
Panic
In case your want immediate silence, press all four Me-
mory buttons 1..4 simultaneously. It works like receiving
an "All Notes Off" MIDI message.
MIDI Channel Setting
Press and hold all four Memory buttons, then play a MIDI
note through USB or MIDI. Streichfett sets the MIDI chan-
nel for receiving and transmitting according to the chan-
nel of the received note on message.
For Omni mode (receiving MIDI data on all MIDI chan-
nels), press all four Memory buttons when powering on
Streichfett.
w If switched to Omni mode, the MIDI data from
Streichfett is sent via the last selected MIDI channel
(before switching to Omni mode).
In case any MIDI channel from 1 to 14 is selected, the
Solo section can be triggered independently of the Strings
section on the next channel, with split settings being igno-
red. So in order to e.g. play Strings on MIDI channel 1
and Solo on MIDI channel 2, proceed as follows:
• Press and hold all four Memory buttons and play any
key on your master keyboard on MIDI channel 1 to
set the MIDI channel.
• Set Balance to the middle position so you can hear
both Strings and Solo.
• Press and hold the lowest key on your MIDI master
keyboard and select "Low" with the Split switch. This
sets the split key very low and prevents Solo to be
heard, if you play Strings on MIDI channel 1.
Now you can play Strings on MIDI channel 1 and Solo on
MIDI channel 2.

Pitch Bend Range
Press and hold all Memory buttons and move the Effect
Selector to the desired position:
• Animate: 2 semitones (default)
• Phaser: 7 semitones
• Reverb: 12 semitones, or rather one octave
Dumping Sounds
The dump functions let you send and receive all 12 sound
programs of the Streichfett’s memory via MIDI or USB
MIDI. Using a suitable sequencer software or a special
sound editor program, you can record and archive this
data.
+ To dump all sounds:
1. Press and hold all Memory buttons.
2. Press the Ensemble button to start the dump
process.
w To dump a single sound you need to send a MIDI
dump request from e.g. a suitable software. For
more informations please refer to the MIDI Imple-
mantion chapter in the appendix of this manual.
Receiving Sound Dumps
There is no special receive mode in the Streichfett in order
to receive MIDI sound dumps through MIDI or USB. You
only need to send the sound data dump to the connected
Streichfett.
w You can also connect two Streichfett via MIDI to
exchange sound data.

In order to find which DIN / USB port a Streichfett Syn-
thesizer is connected to, you can use MIDI identity re-
quest and reply messages. Open all in ports and cycle
through every out port sending identity requests and
waiting for potential replies.
Once you get a specific Streichfett identity reply mes-
sage, you also get the in / out ports combination connec-
ted to the synthesizer.
It is also possible to retrieve the internal software revision
within the identity reply message.
