This synth has three oscillators with high-end circuit models of analogue waveforms, including two wavetables from Waldorf Q and ROM wavetables from the Waldorf Wave.
The Blofeld also has ring modulation, noise generator, advanced filters, envelopes and LFOs, making it one of the most versatile synthesizers on the market. It has three authentic circuit-model oscillators, pulse waveforms with variable pulse-width, sawtooth, triangle, and sine wave. It also has two multimode filters per voice, in-depth filtering and distortion, and powerful LFOs.
Features
- Mighty wavetable synthesis: The Waldorf Blofeld offers powerful and versatile wavetable synthesis, based on the wave synthesizers of the early 80s. It includes three oscillators with high-end circuit models of analogue waveforms, as well as ROM wavetables from the flagship Waldorf Wave and the Upper Wavetable from the classic PPG Wave.
- In-depth sound design: The Blofeld’s combination of ring modulation, noise generator, advanced filters, envelopes and LFOs make it one of the most versatile synth modules on the market. You can create complex timbres and sounds, control harmonic content and texture, and filter the sound through two multimode filters with freely controllable Drive parameters.
- Powerful LFOs: The three LFOs offer sine, triangle, square and sawtooth waveforms, plus sample & hold and random. LFOs can be synchronized to MIDI clock, reset on key trigger, and the speed can be scaled by MIDI note. Higher rates reach well into the audio frequency range, making them useful extra FM sources.
- User-friendly interface: The Blofeld features seven endless stainless-steel dials, a graphic display with 128 x 64 pixels, and more than 1000 sounds. It also has a powerful arpeggiator with freely programmable patterns and up to 16 steps per sound.
- Sturdy and compatible: The Waldorf Blofeld comes in a sturdy metal enclosure and has a standard USB MIDI driver provided by the host computer OS. It is compatible with Windows ME minimum, Windows XP or newer recommended, and Mac OS X 10.2 minimum, Mac OS X 10.3 or newer recommended. It also features stereo output, headphone output, MIDI In, and a power switch.
