One Man's Trash: The Waldorf Microwave XT
video upload by Noir Et Blanc Vie
"Subjective opinions within, those who do not understand subjective opinion may be excused lol
*100% music in this video composed/produced by me.
The Waldorf Microwave XT is the past, present and future. Anyone who is telling you to buy a new instrument, especially a new synth in hopes that it's "better" than something like the XT is just here to be a salesman. 30 years old and still sits a top a trash heap of other digitals that came and went. Make music, share experiences. The End."

Sounds Like the 80s and 90s (In the Best Way) // Waldorf Protein
video upload by Starsky Carr
"Discover the gritty soul of classic wavetable synthesis in this in-depth review and sound demo of the Waldorf Protein. Drawing direct lineage from the legendary PPG and *Waldorf Microwave*, the Protein combines authentic 8-bit, 128-sample wavetables with a modern, streamlined workflow — delivering that unmistakable lo-fi digital bite without the complexity of vintage machines.
In this video, I explore how the Protein’s 8-voice / 4-part multitimbral engine lets a single patch handle basslines, arpeggios, leads and textures simultaneously. You’ll hear how the stepped wavetable movement, classic aliasing artefacts and digital filters create tones that newer, smoother wavetable synths simply can’t replicate.
I also break down:
• How classic PPG-style wavetables actually work
• Why 8-bit waves sound so alive and musical
• Digital filters, drive modes & modulation
• Multitimbral layering for complete tracks
• Why this isn’t a Microwave clone — but something new
Whether you’re into *90s trance, industrial, ambient, IDM, synthwave, techno, or just love characterful digital hardware*, the Waldorf Protein offers a uniquely inspiring take on modern wavetable synthesis."

Dub Techno / Dub Ambient liveset - Home Concert 78
video upload by Martin Stürtzer
"For the first Home Concert of 2026 I recorded a liveset with Dub Ambient and Dub Techno music. The set starts with three Dub Ambient tracks in the 80bpm range. Followed by two faster Dub Techno tracks featuring sounds from the Super-6 and Oberheim OB6. The sets closes with a slower Dub Techno track with washy chords from the Roland Juno 60. The music of this set is exclusively available here on Youtube until I finish the productions and can upload the music to Bandcamp and the streaming services.
All music was created by a (cat assisted) human. No AI tools were involved in the production of the music and artwork.

Waldorf M 1.11 Update Adds Varysaw VA Oscillator, CS80 Based Oscillator, Extensive FM & More


You can find the update here
Details form the release doc follows:
Disclaimer: This is an unofficial add-on to the M user manual, describing some of extra features added from firmware 1.05 up to firmware 1.11. This add-on also covers some complex aspects of the Multi Mode, which remains somewhat unusual.
Author: Vladi Salnikov aka VladiS.
Algorithms of FW version 1.11:
Varysaw: A VA oscillator ranging from SAW through PULSE to TRI.
Wave (red encoder): Mixes from 0 to 31 from SAW to PULSE; 32 is pure PULSE, and 33 to 63 mixesfrom PULSE to TRI.
Meta parameter: Pulse width for PULSE, adjustable from 5% to 95%.
CSAW: A famous Yamaha CS-80 saw oscillator with mutation towards a parabolic oscillator.
Wave : Controls the amplitude of the “step” component of the saw wave.
Meta parameter: Mixes between this saw wave and the parabolic saw wave.
Waveshpr: A SAW to TRI oscillator fed into a mild waveshaper.
Wave : 0 is pure SAW, 1-62 mixes between SAW and TRI, and 63 is pure TRI.
Meta parameter: Depth of the waveshaper.
TriplSaw: A stack of three SAW oscillators; two are detuned slightly higher and lower than the third.
Wave : Controls the amplitude of the “central” SAW oscillator relative to the two “side” SAWs.
Meta parameter: Detuning factor, from 0 to maximum detune.
S/T Fold: A SIN wave folding oscillator that folds the chosen crossmixed wave between SIN and TRI waves.
Wave : 0 is pure SIN, 1-62 mixes between SIN and TRI, and 63 is pure TRI.
Meta parameter: Folding depth.
FM 2 OP: Classic simple two-operator FM synthesis. OP1 (modulator) generates a sine wave that modulates the phase of OP2 (carrier). Both operators generate sinewaves; the algorithm's output is the carrier signal.
Wave: Maps values from 0 to 63 to harmonics ratios of 1 to 8 in stepped increments.
Meta parameter: Amount of phase modulation applied to the carrier.

W. PROTEIN - SEQUENCING the WAVE/TABLES
video upload by Alba Ecstasy
"In this video I am passing through (almost!) all waveforms (I’m leaving the last waves for you!), combining them for both oscillators.
This 20 minutes tables and waves variations is almost an authentic Berlin School track, I could only bring some pads and percussions and the jos is done!
And I think this little box will become my main sequence voice!
The sound is crystal clear (some artefacts (I thinks they’re normal for wavetable synths) can be heard, as some processing clicks and pops when changing some parameters - my Blofeld had it too - but all these may also come from a very fast attack and from some wavetables tweaking).
If I'm not changing the tables and the waves, the sound is just fine!
Some distortion may appear because of the output level. Sorry about that!
Both delay and reverb are internal, so as the sequence too (32 steps)."
