Sometimes they do come back, and this time, it's with even more brute-strength power onboard. You are looking at a completely analog synthesizer that accurately delivers what synthesizer enthusiasts around the world truly crave. Pulse 2 is the reincarnation of it's legendary ancestor, the Waldorf Pulse, that dominated the electronic music of the 90s.
Three analog oscillators in combination with a true analog cascading filter is what Pulse and Pulse 2 have in common. But we didn't stop there. The filter circuits now also offer Highpass and Bandpass modes. We added analog Filter FM and Ring Modulation along with paraphonic modes that allow up to eight voice chords.
Like the Blofeld Synthesizer, the Pulse 2 is housed in a sturdy metal desktop case. Besides its large LCD display, 8 stainless steel knobs are available to surf through its clearly arrayed parameter matrix, set master volume and edit display accessible parameters.
Great instrument. Oscillators sound immense and are the stars of the show. Filter isn't the most characterful but that just means it fits into a mix really well. The matrix system is ok for most operations after spending a little time getting used to it but is a little awkward when tweaking parameters from different rows, i.e. filter cutoff and amp envelope release stage. However, the strength of this is a superb modulation matrix that is the envy of most other analogue synths.
