The awesome Waldorf Blofeld! At its core, its like a Waldorf Q and Waldorf Microwave combined into one synth with breathtaking tone. That means it produces not only stunning virtual analog sounds, but also the amazing textures made capable by wavetable synthesis, from such machines as the classic PPG.

Easy to use with large graphical display and classic 4 knob Waldorf matrix, sounds amazing and cost is low for a full metal casing and german build quality - ideal for studio or the road.

The keyboard itself is a handy 4 octave with solid feel, and the missing ingredient on many lesser synths - aftertouch modulation. Dedicated octave shift buttons are provided for moving the keyboard range up or down.

These "Shadow" edition Blofelds are in a dark grey matt paint reminiscent of early Waldorfs (Wave, Q, Pulse, X-Pole etc).

Im an owner and big fan of Waldorf quality so am really happy to answer any questions or provide any demonstrations on these, which are available in black or white keyboards, and same of the desktop module ($799).

• 3 oscillators per voice
