Waldorf Quantum 8 Voice Hybrid Polyphonic Synthesizer Hybrid polyphonic synthesiser with a range of modulation capabilities and effects Waldorf is proud to announce a new chapter in their tradition of designing high-end ground breaking synthesizers. Starting with Waldorf’s famous wavetable technology developed decades ago, it was always a challenge to give our instruments a powerful flexible beating heart. Our digital oscillators coupled to the enormous power and efficient simplicity of our analog filters started the digital revolution back in the 80’s.
Quantum combines the raw power of a classic digital & analog hybrid synthesizer, with futuristic sounds that are only possible with today’s software synthesizers.
Its 3 Oscillators offer four synthesis algorithms each:
– Waldorf-style Wavetables with the latest additions from Nave, including speech synthesis and wavetable generation from audio
– Classic Synthesizer Waveforms with multiple waves for an ultra fat sounds right out of the oscillators
– Granular Sampler with multi sampling plus traditional sampling mode
– Resonator for virtual sound sculpting
– Quantum Display
The flexibility emanating from Quantum’s powerful oscillators and their interaction with one another is simply breath-taking. Never before has it ever been possible to create such a wide sonic bandwidth with one synthesizer. Stretching from classic analog, with precise sample playback, through to harsh or animated digital sounds, escalating all the way up to sound and sequence clusters, that can only be achieved with a modular synthesizer system.
Quantum’s beautiful ergonomic and intuitive user panel supports an artist’s workflow with a previously unknown elegance. The carefully crafted array of aluminium knobs and encoders surround an ultra hi-resolution multi touch display. Waldorf engineers spent many long hours perfecting the interaction between the display and the physical control elements. The stunning display is a highly flexible extension of the tactile experience, and is light-years ahead of any synthesizer currently on the market today.
To help understand functional correlations between one knob and another, each control knob is individually illuminated by a multi colour LED. This makes it instantly obvious when viewing complex settings and modulation settings, where related parameters can be adjusted quickly and efficiently. With the help once again of the gorgeous central display, precise settings can be handled with ease, much the same as the experience when using your cutting edge computer tablet.
When the Waldorf engineers decided to develop Quantum, little did they realise it would take several years of painstaking work. There were areas of Quantum that our years of experience with sound generation were bought to the fore. But Quantum is so powerful it took our team into uncharted territory, involving both sound and the way it was felt the musician would interact with it.
Quantum was designed and developed by our dedicated team in Germany. All essential components have been designed, manufactured and assembled here in Germany. This has allowed us to manufacture Quantum with an unparalleled build quality. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank a world class array of sound designers that have contributed to a multi-facetted factory sound set.Features Digital-Analog Polyphonic Synthesizer61 Keys high-quality Fatar TP8S keyboard, channel aftertouch8 voicesDual timbral: split or layered mode with separate stereo audio outputs3 stereo digital oscillators each capable of four synthesis algorithmsResonator: Exciter using multi-sampling plus filter bank sound modelTwo analogue lowpass filters per voice each in 24 or 12 dB configuration using innovative link modes6 LFOs in poly and global mode with extensive parameter set6 loopable envelopesKomplex: multistage LFO/envelope modulatorMaster effect rack of 5 slots for each timbre choosing from FX like phaser, flanger, chorus, reverb, drive, eq and moreCompressor for main outputStep sequencer with step recording, parameter automation and scale-based pitch quantizationCapable of polyphonic aftertouch via external MIDI inputsUnisono modeSingle-function potentiometer and encoder controls for intuitive editingMIDI output of local keyboard, wheels and assignable panel elementsRecording of samples from audio inputs or self-recording of audio outputs4 GB internal Flash memory for presets, samples and wavetablesPre-loaded with more then 1 GB sample dataMod wheel can be assigned to any parameter which can be modulated in the matrix or via quick assignPitch wheel can be assigned to each oscillator individuallySpecifications Filters comb filter, high-pass, band-pass & notch filters Keyboard Yes Inputs 1/4″ Jack, MIDI Outputs 1/4″ Jack, MIDI Dimensions (mm) 1006 x 131 x 401 Weight (g) 17800 Power Mains Adapter
