"A bold and powerful digital instrument, the Waldorf Q is a 16-voice (expandable to 32) analog modeling synthesizer that pairs expressive performance features with deep modulation capabilities. This is the iconic yellow version, famously distinctive in both sound and appearance, and a true statement piece in any synth setup.

This unit is in excellent condition, with bright, clean paint and fully functioning controls. Its high-resolution oscillators, multimode filters, and modulation matrix make it an incredibly capable and dynamic synth for studio or stage.

Key Features:

16-voice (expandable) virtual analog synthesis

3 oscillators per voice with FM, ring mod, and wavetable options

Dual multimode filters with various slope types

61-key keyboard with velocity and aftertouch

4 LFOs, modulation matrix, and onboard effects

Arpeggiator, step sequencer, and deep MIDI control

Bright yellow chassis, instantly recognizable

Condition Notes:

Excellent functional and cosmetic condition

Paint’s nature gives it a somewhat dusty texture (shown in closeups)

Knobs and buttons responsive and intact

Praised for its unique tone shaping and massive modulation options, the Q has been used by artists including Tangerine Dream, BT, and Depeche Mode. It's a modern classic that delivers digital precision with analog-style warmth, depth, and hands-on control.

30% of proceeds support the Bob Moog Foundation."
