Waldorf Blofeld demo

Published on Apr 30, 2012 Matt Brock

"I wrote this piece of music to demonstrate the wonderful sonic capabilities of the Waldorf Blofeld Keyboard (mine is the limited edition black version). All the sounds in this track (including the drums) are original sounds which were programmed by myself from scratch on the Blofeld. No presets or other instruments were used. It was recorded using Logic; a few bits of EQ, compression, reverb and delay were added to the mix. The video was shot using an iPhone 4 and edited in iMovie HD.

"A demonstration of some sounds I programmed on my OSCar combined with a 'flypast' of the synth itself. No audio FX have been added apart from some mastering compression. I also wrote a blog post about the OSCar to go with this video: http://blog.mattbrock.co.uk/2009/03/2...
