Aliens Project Toy of the Month #82 - Waldorf Blofeld

on Aliens Project

As always, the text is in German and the samples are in Synth.

Update: translation via Qwave in the comments: "Why the company Waldorf named this synthesizer 'Blofeld' will stay a mystery for me for all times.

The clear design was drawn by Axel Hartmann, who also designed the other "Waldis" (rem: shortened german version for Waldorf, not a real german word).

The desktop housing is very clear structured, and the big graphic display makes it user friendly to operate. The synth is 19" rack mountable with optional rack ears (rem: where to get them?). Very nice.

From the specification point of view, the Blofeld could be a direct successor of the MicroQ.

The technic:
virtual analog modeling technology
3 oscillators (pulse, saw, triangle, sine, osc.1 and 2 also wavetables)
frequency modulation + hard sync
25 voices (rem: wrong! up to 25 voices!) / 16 time multitimbral
2 multimode filters 12dB / 24 dB (HP, LP, BP, combfilter)
4 envelope generators
arpeggiator
1000 sounds / 100 multi programs
effects
Midi in, USB, stereo out, headphone

I think the compact Blofeld is very well suited as a synth for the live stage.

It is user friendly, small, lightweight and very stable (steel sheet housing).

Despite the compact measurements, it offers the very big Waldorf sound, as known from the Microwave and the Q (but a little bit limited).

I looks nearly ideal as deliverer for moving pads and atmospheres."
