NOTICE GLOBAL
I use it for over a year. Regarding the power of Blofeld, I am fully satisfied. However, it is now suffering from a problem knob (infinite): one of the four main knobs "jump" alatoirement and very quickly when rotated. The instrument as still under warranty, it will go back bientt service after sale.
The quality-price ratio is very good.
With the experience, especially after purchasing a Andromeda A6, I'm not on the choice again, however, I do not regret my purchase.See less00- djfacile

SOUNDS
It is cold, metallic, the effects are toy. The output level is low it takes at a compressor ass to incorporate a mix. Levels between the filters are unstable short compared to a virus once again there is a world.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for three months non-stop, hoping to draw a few things but nothing works the sound is not there and ergonomics either. If you are new and want a synth controller via an app go is cheap but I still advise you to go for a ride on the side of access is more rounded, warmer, more stable and level fun games there is no picture!See less1313

The construction is robust with its metal frame, it is far from existing plastic toys that we currently serve Korg or Roland in these price ranges.
UTILIZATION
My copy came with the OS v1.15, this is no longer the plant bugs as was clearly the case in the past, but there are still crashes from time to time (it's happened to me a few Once I have to turn off the machine because more way to change the patch), there are always variations in the volume of factory presets a floor to another, which can be quite annoying.
Editing is less straightforward than a Nord Lead or MS-2000 because it is not "one button, one function", but the clever link between the matrix and silkscreened the screen allow quick access parameters (bloated) without losing too much in the menus / submenus.
A good knowledge of the synthesis is preferable before tackling such a device, although dissect the factory presets can give ideas.
SOUNDS
Engine power and well thought out ergonomics allow for complex and evolving sounds an instrument of choice for industrial, experimental music. The arpeggiator is great ADDITION Blofeld and makes a machine of choice for electro punchy.
By against the grain Waldorf hard enough, is not ideal for big bass to Moog filters sounding pretty metal, it is more in the spirit of the PPG Wave that old analos.
The effects are not great, especially the reverb, good external effects will not be a luxury.
OVERALL OPINION
I have since about a year, quite curious about the Waldorf grain and quite attracted by the price (less than 400 € new) and its compact and robust format that can take them anywhere.
Hopefully the next version of the OS (currently still in beta) correct the remaining bugs to consider use with confidence on stage, which will further improve the quality / price ratio, already great, this instrument.See less142- sw80
Needs more knobs
Published on 10/28/12 at 23:18The Waldorf Blofeld is a digital synth that comes with over 1,000 sounds and presets. You can use up to 25 voices on the Waldorf Blofeld and it only cost 700 dollars. The interface on the Waldorf Blofeld is very easy to use and understand. It is very self explanatory, you will not need a manual to understand this synth. It can hook up to your computer through USB and you can use your MIDI connections to control the sounds from your MIDI keyboard.

The arpeggiator on the Waldorf Blofeld is so good, it makes standard keyboard arpeggiators look like a kids toy.
UTILIZATION
You can get some really good sounds with the Waldorf Blofeld. You can start building your sounds from the presets that it provides or you can pretty much build a sound yourself from scratch. The only downfall of the Waldorf Blofeld is that the interface does not have all of the knobs for the parameters on it. It would be nice if all of the knobs were right on the face of the unit and then you could tweak everything in real time until you had a sound that you were happy with.
SOUNDS
Setting up the Waldorf Blofeld is simple, you will just need to make sure that all of your connections are set up right. The Waldorf Blofeld does have some effects on it like flanger, phaser, delay, reverb, overdrive and chorus. Since I have been using the Waldorf Blofeld I have been able to get way better sounds than any VST that I have used.
OVERALL OPINION
The Waldorf Blofeld cannot be racked, it will need to be placed on a desktop surface but that is ok because it is not that big. It is less than a foot wide which makes it the perfect desktop size. If you don’t want just the module you can purchase the full keyboard version.See less00 - simcPublished on 01/21/12 at 13:27 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Expander polyphonic and multitimbral desktop VA.

OVERALL OPINION
This is synthtiseur trs powerful for its price. Some may compare it to the Virus. I do not allow it since I never possd Virus. Nanmoins, given the data sheet, we are facing a synthtiseur srieux. At this price there s no real competition with this degree of modularity.
I sold nanmoins APRS have acquired analog (Alesis Andromeda, Systm Doepfer A100). It is, against another world for the price ...
I keep a good memory of trs Blofeld even if I have to evokes some worry that I faced. Ractive dropped his ds when I sent him the midi-clock. May be a concern in the installation of my studio, but better to be careful, because it makes use for live tweaking with trs difficult and hazardous.
In addition, I had a problems with an encoder (which is unfortunately more frquent in this price range) that Waldorf me of course replaced under warranty ... An encoder for a Crant deuxime return has t Necessary for putting the right encoder.
In hindsight, if I had a budget of around 400 and if j'tais looking for a powerful device many opportunities, I would do probably the choice.See less81 - ericthegreat
waldarf is epic
Published on 11/01/11 at 22:05
I own a number of synths including a Roland JP-8080 and Virus Snow, but this is my favorite along with the DSI Tetra. I have had it for about eight months and use it constantly. The unit is compact but solid as a rock. It is also the best looking desktop synth on the market. It sounds beautiful, and its patches range from harsh basses to shimmering pads. While it is digital, it can be warm, too.

Most parameters are easy to access, and it is especially fun to mess with the wave forms to create moving effects. Even so, my biggest complaint is that it lacks a VST interface like the Virus Snow. Also, the operating system tends to be buggy, although the latest software revision has fixed a number of minor problems.
SOUNDS
If you want something that can mimic natural instruments like a guitar or a flute then forget it. This little beast is meant to sound synthetic and is great for emulating later day Kraftwerk-style songs (think Tour de France). Despite the limited number of knobs, programming is easier than I first expected. The display is big and the programming matrix benefits from a logical layout. Blofeld has a unique sound of itself. At the same time, it gathers different synthesis approach in one box which is good. The best part of the synth must be the Wavetable and the filter (the comb filter). Built like a brick! Quality Product and Good Sounding. Best Synth i have used
OVERALL OPINION
Overall, I would recommend the Blofeld to anyone interested in making music that ranges from minimal tech or dance anything to industrial to ambient to eighties revival. I highly recommend this desktop synth for everyone who can afford it, it does cost a lot though. But its worth every cent with out a doubt.See less00

Sometimes it is complicated to use, but with perseverance, we get to do what we want.
SOUNDS
the original sounds are top, it's better to take time to build its sounds!
Sounds very peculiar to him, digital, crystal clear, sometimes FM, sometimes organic and evolving over time.
Volume of different patches sometimes with large variations
Sounds unrealistic, perfect for electronic and experimental music.

After listening for the first time demos I fall to the ground and shouted "I want" I was among the first to spend the first day of my pre-order, 3 month wait! But the icing at the end .....
critics are put off this synth off dirty from the start by saying it was shit, an unstable OS, a low manufacturing qualitée (I read here on AF compared to the cover metal sheet to a common folded and painted for € 30!)
unlike the "when do we say" the Blofeld was well attended by Waldorf, the updates to the OS frequent, various improvements, and finally the OS version 1.15b SL that allows the injection of sample wav format again with the filters! demand that other people for less than € 600 over nine synth license? frankly?
I'm with deep bass to the limit of infrabass, leads to blush norlead "word games" ambient groundwater at will, the fx crazy is not it on to the piano accordion and bagpipes! but buy a synth for that? The Blofeld is made for synthetic sound design research

I put 10 to Blofeld is one of the few synths that I bought new and kept, I am not to throw for another,

The utililtaire pc.
UTILIZATION
Very complex as any real musical instrument.
Many menus and sub menus but fluid and intuitive. With a little practice we found it fast enough.
The editor pc is really cool. (I emulates Linux).
SOUNDS
The creative potential is immense and this is a superb machine and super serious.
