MATRIXSYNTH: Waldorf Wave Still For Sale

Waldorf Wave Still For Sale

This is probably only interesting to me, but that Waldorf Wave that was up for sale in Sweden back in April is up for sale again. It didn't sell the first time. Asking price is $6000. What's also interesting is the asking price was $7000 when I put up the previous post but the link to that auction shows it ended with 0 bids at $6000. It's all supply and demand and the demand doesn't appear to be there at that price.

  1. I know it has holy-grail status with lots of folks out there, but my friend used to have a Waldorf Wave, and it just sounded like the old rack mount Waldorf to me. Some people like that sound, but it doesn't really have the grit & character of the PPG. And the knobs were kind of flimsy. Eh, to each his own.

  2. Do you think the Wave is even much better than a 30-voice XTK? I wouldn't think it could be $5000 better.

  4. The waldorf line of synths is not as appetizing as the waldorf line of salads, or the waldorf faulty towers salad episode.

    Still, it's a good 3rd.

  5. It is all a matter of taste, but the WAVE has lot's of stuff to offer you do not find on the Microwave or XT, some not even on any other synthesizer.

    - HPF, BP and Dual Filter Modes
    - 16 Voices
    - permanent multi mode, great for layers
    - vast modulation sources (i.e. playspeed)
    - sample analysis
    - one kob per function approach
    - user friendly interface
    - tiltable panel
    - great keyboard action
    - lots of master keyboard functions
    - silky and warm sound
    - different colour schemes available

    Georg.

  6. Doktor Future is right. Silky & warm is one thing, but walnuts and apples out perform any tiltable panel.

  7. I'm sorry but nobody is going to throw $6000 in the mail to a seller with only six ancient feedbacks. Maybe try and sell something smaller to begin with?
