Waldorf Goes Soft
I have long been a fan of Waldorf synthesizers. One of the vary first virtual analog synths I ever bought was the Waldorf Q—in fact, you can hear it prominently on the Ember After songs “Paradise” and “Change” on the album Grasping At Straws. I was very interested when the Waldorf Blofeld came out, but ultimately I decided that the Access Virus TI Snow integrated better into Ember Studios.
Waldorf, however, has just released a software synthesizer called Largo that combines many of the great algorithms and features of their hardware synthesizers.
Largo offers much of what the Q and the Blofeld offer as far as oscillators, wavetables from the PPG and Wave, and LFOs, filters, modulation options go. The spec list is intense; go to the website to check it out.
Needless to say, I’m very interested in this instrument, and intend to check it out as soon as possible!
