+ | ====== Comparing the small Waldorf synthesizers ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | <WRAP info> | ||
+ | |||
+ | A German company Waldorf has come up with a set of interesting small form factor hardware synthesizers: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ^ ^ Waldorf Blofeld ^ Waldorf Pulse 2 ^ Waldorf Rocket ^ Waldorf Streichfett ^ | ||
+ | ^ What it is | A digital general-purpose synthesizer offering wide sonic possibilities | A modern approach to an analog synth | An affordable little monosynth for strong analog sounds | A synth for generating vintage synth string and choir sounds | | ||
+ | ^ How it sounds | Bright and a little bit metallic but in a pleasing way | Analog in a modern way | Strong and analog | Vintage | | ||
+ | ^ What it can deliver | Almost any sound you wish for, if you know how to set the parameters | All you can expect from an analog synth | Analog leads and basses | From a tiny beep to a massive wall of choiry synth strings | | ||
+ | ^ What it can't deliver | Analog instrument imitations (pianos, violins, horns) based on sample banks | Digital sounds | Soft pad-type sounds | Not a general-purpose synthesizer so farther you drift from synth strings less is what you get | | ||
+ | ^ What I use it for | Complex pads and atmospheric ambient sounds | Anything analog I might need | Analog lead and bass | Synth strings | | ||
+ | ^ What would I compare it against | Any general-purpose digital synthesizer | Full-fledged analog synths | All those new affordable analog monosynth boxes | There is nothing to compare it against as it defines an instrument class of its own | | ||
