Overview of Waldorf Blofeld Desktop Synthesizer - Black
Offspring from a noble house - the little synthesizer machine with the big and evil sound. Waldorf is back in the game with the Waldorf Blofeld Desktop Synthesizer. This synthesizer offers all the unique qualities that made Waldorf a truly legendary brand.
The engine inside the heavy-duty, full metal chassis of the Blofeld delivers the same fat and rich sound that so many Waldorf users worldwide love when they play their Pulse, Q, Q+, Micro Q, Microwave, Microwave II/XT, or even the flagship Wave. The Blofeld is not only capable of producing these warm, organic analog sounds known from the Q synthesizer line, it also sports a wavetable engine like its predecessors with "Wave" in their names.
This unique synthesis system is based upon the revolutionary PPG Wave synthesizers of the early 80s. So when you listen to the Blofeld for the first time, you will instantly recognize those edgy, hard-hitting, and bell-like timbres that have been an integral part of so many world hits from the PPG era on, and become increasingly popular once more.
In fact, it is amazing to realize that nowadays this complex technology fits into such a slim and elegant device. And for a price no-one would have imagined a couple of years ago.
