Welcome to Engelbert Schmid's Mouthpiece Shop!
Designed for horn players based on the principles of mathematics and physics.
Once you have found your preferred mouthpiece size, nothing can hold you back.
Discover why Engelbert Schmid´s mouthpieces are at the forefront of mouthpiece technology!
This month´s mouthpiece theme:
Engelbert Schmid Digital 11.5 One of our Best!
The Schmid Digital 11.5 with the internal diameter of 18.0 mm,
is one of our most popular models.
It is the most comfortable, all-round mouthpiece to suit most lips.
Engelbert Schmid´s Digital Mouthpieces
Fully embracing the digital possibilities of today's technology.
Unfortunately, conventional digital copying machines used to copy handcrafted original mouthpieces, copy the mistakes of the handcrafted original pattern and add their own copy errors on top! Not so with the digital mouthpieces from Engelbert Schmid:
The mouthpieces are accurately rotated by the predetermined geometry. So there is no faulty pattern and no copying errors. The mouthpieces have perfect curves in all areas, which results in a more effective mouthpiece. Therefore you can afford to select a slightly or even significantly deeper mouthpiece that produces a rounder quality sound, without losing quality in the high range!
1) Engelbert Schmid´s digital mouthpieces
are available
in 4 different inner width diameters:
17.0 mm 17.5 mm 18.0 mm 18.5 mm
2) For each inner width there are
6 different cup depths:
- shallow
- semi-shallow
- medium
- semi-deep
- deep
- extra-deep.
3) All Engelbert Schmid digital mouthpieces
have the same rim geometry.
The rim is 4 mm in width for the
diameters of 17.0, 17.5 and 18.0.
For mouthpieces with a larger inner diameter
of 18.5, the rim is reduced to 3,75 mm,
since the mouthpiece in this instance,
already covers a very broad portion of the lips.
In heavy or long playing passages, this
rim form never cuts into your lip.
Also when playing with little pressure (on it),
it gives a secure feeling and
a precise production.
This is what I call, "The Golden Middle."
4) Wall thickness is uniformly 1.7 mm on all
Engelbert Schmid digital motuhpieces.
This has a very positive effect on
mouthpiece vibration behavior.
It no longer makes sense to build thicker,
flatter "outer-walls," just to follow
standard manufacturing traditions
which made production easier.
With Engelbert Schmid digital mouthpieces,
the outer wall mirrors precisely
the curvature of the inner cup.
5) The Shank:
Engelbert Schmid Mouthpieces have a shank
in between Morse and Metric.
So they will fit well into practically all mouthpiece receivers.
If you don´t have an Engelbert Schmid Horn,
just twist the mouthpiece a little in and its OK.
On the other hand, Engelbert Schmid Horn´s have the
same taper in the receiver, so vice versa practically
all mouthpieces, no matter whether Morse or Metric,
will fit well into a Schmid Horn.
Of course you have the perfect fit with an
Engelbert Horn and an Engelbert Schmid mouthpiece.
