"This is one of the rarest of Waldorf products. The Rack Attack is a dedicated percussion synth based on the Micro Q's structure but offering a very different slant https://waldorfmusic.com/legacy-rack-attack/ This example is in very good condition, with just a few superficial marks. check the photos. The backlight is very good - see one of the pics. The external UK PSU has the earth pin removed which might seem a bit alarming, but I asked Waldorf at the time I bought it and it was done in factory apparently!"

Evolving Riddle


video upload by Memetune Studio

"Some ambient fun on 90’s synths

I used to be afraid of 90s synths - very afraid

My album 20 Systems stopped short of the 90s because I was scared of what happened next - it went all Rompler, and workstation, and presets, and tiny complicated interfaces with tiny silly screens and, like, two buttons to navigate the most complex synths ever made

But recently, I am learning to love my 90s synths. Some of the best and most beautiful sounding instruments were made in the 1990s and here are four of them - the Alesis Quadrasynth (1993) , a true 4-Layer Rompler with dual integrated FX units. The Yamaha TG33 desktop synth (1990) - using a hand-me-down straight from the Sequential Prophet VS, including a crazy vector-dial. Thirdly, the Waldorf Microwave-2 (1997) - a direct descendant of the PPG Wave series of wavetable synths. And finally the Roland JV1080 (1994) - their flagship Rompler derived from (and vastly expanded upon) the legendary D50 LA synth

I also added a plethora of vintage FX units to the mix (through the Neve 88D) - a Lexicon Model 200, Prime Time 95, AMS RMX16, Quantec QRS, and Eventide H3000 (the blue one) for good measure

The video doesn’t matter here - it’s about the s o u n d today

Thanks for listening"

via this Reverb listing

"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.

"Incredible wavetable synth. Even the Quantum can not sound like this. All the encoders were changed before I bought the synth. The original encoders were bad quality and they all needed an upgrade. The previous owner put little red pieces of felt on the filter cutoff and wavetable knobs..."

Waldorf Micro Q Phoenix Ltd Edition #229/500 SN *64400500407* w/ Original Box

via this Reverb listing

"Waldorf Micro Q Phoenix Ltd Edition #229/500 Virtual Analog 25 Voice Polyphonic 16 Part Multitimbral Rackmount Synth. Over all in very good condition with some rack rash. The front panel apart from rack holes is in very good shape and all encoders and buttons and knobs function properly and don't skip or stick, display is bright. One of the best sounding virtual analog synths to ever come out. One of my favorite features are the drum maps, something Access should have incorporated into the Virus series or even the later Waldorfs like the Blofeld should have done."
