With the Quantum Mk2 Waldorf presents the second generation of their milestone in synthesizer history. The polyphonic hybrid synthesizer has undergone several improvements and enhancements and now appears in a noble blue hue. The new semi-weighted 61-key keyboard is a
At the heart of the Quantum Mk2 are its three digital oscillators, each with five selectable synthesis modes:
The oscillators on their own do some incredible things and offer an enormous range of different sounds. The number of parameters for an oscillator is already enormous, moreover, these are modulable in addition many times. The following mixer controls the volume and saturation of the tone generators. This is followed by two excellent analogue 12/24 dB
With six loopable envelopes and LFOs as well as the Complex Modulator, which is a mixture of two LFOs with waveforms you can draw yourself(!) and an envelope, you have enough options besides the usual modulation sources like eg. ModWheel,
The polyphonic step sequencer has a capacity of 64 steps and even records several parameter lines. Typical for Waldorf, an arpeggiator is also integrated, which is one of the most extensive of its kind. The lush selection of different scales, patterns and playback directions is a really useful helper when composing.
The high-resolution multi-touch display allows convenient access to every parameter and visually implements every move on the control panel. With impressive precision, it displays real-time changes in the sound as a spectrum analyzer and oscilloscope at various stages of the synthesis process. Via the modulation matrix, the
