Waldorf Blofeld Desktop White

Blofeld offers all the unique qualities that made Waldorf a truly legendary brand. 

The engine inside the heavy duty, full metal chassis of the Blofeld delivers the same fat and rich sound that so many Waldorf users worldwide love when they play their Pulse, Q, Q+, Micro Q, Microwave, Microwave II/XT, or even the flagship Wave.

Yes, you've heard it right. The Blofeld is not only capable of producing these warm, organic analogue sounds known from the Q synthesiser line, it also sports a wavetable engine like its predecessors with "Wave" in their names.

This unique synthesis system is based upon the revolutionary PPG Wave synthesisers of the early 80s. So when you listen to the Blofeld for the first time, you will instantly recognise those edgy, hard-hitting and bell-like timbres that have been an integral part of so many world hits from the PPG era on, and become increasingly popular once more.

In fact it is amazing to realise that nowadays this complex technology fits into such a slim and elegant device. And for a price no-one would have imagined a couple of years ago.
