So pleased you have re-gen'd the old classic mWave module in SW Waldorf team - fabulous!! Always loved it's slightly gritty, broken wavetable tones - sets it in concrete, at the end of the 80's accelerating digital era!! Qu. Rolf & team - Can you confirm Waldorf are also going to follow up very soon with the super big brother .... Waldorf Wave 🎹🎶💥, danke?!! 😔🙏🙌 Edit: Ahhh!!, so that broken sounds was actually HW bug in the ASIC chip!!, sounds like incorporated in to the Patches!! 🤣👏

Disclaimer: I've never owned a MW1 but did have an M which I needed to sell but haven't managed to backfill its sound signature. It sounds IMMENSE and the UI is very well laid out - exploring the original wavetables is too much fun! Check out the free 30 day trial, I lasted just under an hour before pulling the trigger (envelopes are brutal is a good way). Incredible job Rolf, team and beta testers to model every detail and come up with something that sounds so other worldly. Thank you :)

I am curious how much overlap there is between the reimplementation of the Microwave I done for this plugin.. and that done for the M? Obviously the M has features that go beyond the Microwave I now.. but I imagine there must have been the same source of reverse engineering the original hardware on both units? But M and this plugin seems to be implementations from different developers Also: if we have a good software implementation of the Waldorf ASIC now.. how about a VST version of the full Waldorf Wave? or even a hardware reissue? :) It also makes me curious with Rolf developing this.. could we perhaps see a more lofi wavetable mode added to the Quantum/Iridium in the future? Looks great, anyway 👍

If in some way you could rescue/implement/integrate the speech synthesizer function it would be great, as right now it only runs in an old Atari computer. 2. I imagine that the VST can be controlled with CCs, but it would be something else if it could also respond to the original SYSEX. I used a BCR2000 and now a Stereoping Programmer so the VST/(standalone?) could work as a graphic monitor. I know these are hard asks, but... I had to ask. Thanks!! This is great!

Hey @WaldorfMusicChannel, is the VST supposed to support sysex import of any valid type? Because it doesn't seem to support import of waveform dumps. Also, I think .syx/sysex import is generally bugged because even importing something like vs1.syx and vs2.syx (the "Prophet VS" wavetable presets/banks from the Microwave hardware "sounds" distribution) initially seems to work but then craps out if you later select those imported banks. I've gone round and round on this and can't make anything reliably work. What would be grand is if you just supported "modern" wavetable input. That is, allow import of .wav wavetable files that are 32-bit PCM or 32-bit FLOAT with 2048 samples-per-frame. This is what I call "Serum style" and is supported by many modern wavetable synths. The procedure would then be: Assess the number of 2048-sample frames. If the number of frames is greater than 60, decimate the frames by even selection to be 60. Downsample the 2048 samples for each frame to 128. Convert to 8-bit. Discard the last 64 samples. Write those 60 waveforms to the user waveforms and let Microwave do it's flipping to restore the second half of the waveform. I've been unable to make this work at all working from the existing sysex documentation and example patches provided in the hardware "sounds" distribution. It's crazy making. See my playlist here to understand why I care: kzitem.info/door/PLrpwUaHrI9tOHSLCcPc_pDjelYK1fYcoQ

Comparing Synthesizer Modulation and Chess Synthesizer Modulation: Imagine you have a synthesizer with lots of different knobs and buttons. Each knob can control different aspects of the sound, and you can set each knob in many different ways. If you have a synthesizer with a lot of these options, you might end up with around 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (1 followed by 30 zeros) different possible settings. This number is incredibly large, and it represents all the unique ways you can combine and adjust the different sound controls on your synthesizer. Chess: Now, let’s think about chess. Chess is an ancient game with a board and pieces that can move in many ways. The number of possible games you could play, from the start of the game to the end, is even more mind-boggling. If you were to count every possible game, it’s estimated that there are around 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (1 followed by 120 zeros) different possible games. This number is so enormous that it’s hard to imagine. Comparison: To put it in perspective, the number of possible chess games is so many times greater than the number of different settings you can create on your synthesizer that it’s almost beyond imagination. Even if you took the enormous number of synthesizer settings and multiplied it by a huge number, it wouldn’t come close to the number of possible chess games. In simpler terms: Synthesizer Combinations: Picture a giant number like 1 followed by 30 zeros. That’s how many different ways you can adjust your synthesizer. Chess Games: Now imagine a number that’s 90 zeros bigger than that. That’s how many different chess games you could play. Chess has a level of complexity and variety that dwarfs even the most complex synthesizer setups, showing just how incredibly intricate and vast the game of chess is.

To estimate the number of possible combinations for a synthesizer like the Waldorf Iridium, we need to consider the main parameters and features that can be adjusted. While it's challenging to calculate an exact number due to the complexity and continuous nature of many parameters, we can make a simplified estimate based on several key aspects. Simplified Estimation of Combinations Let’s break down the features of the Waldorf Iridium synthesizer and estimate the number of possible combinations: 1. Oscillators Types: Let's assume there are 3 types of oscillators: Wavetable, Granular, and Virtual Analog. Settings per Oscillator: Each oscillator might have a few settings such as wave shape, pitch, and modulation depth. Assume there are 10 settings per oscillator. Total for Oscillators: Oscillator Combinations = 3 (types) × 10 (settings) = 30 Oscillator Combinations=3 (types)×10 (settings)=30 2. Filters Types: Assume there are 4 different filter types. Settings per Filter: Each filter might have cutoff frequency, resonance, and envelope settings. Assume there are 10 settings per filter. Total for Filters: Filter Combinations = 4 (types) × 10 (settings) = 40 Filter Combinations=4 (types)×10 (settings)=40 3. Envelopes Number of Envelopes: Assume there are 4 envelopes. Settings per Envelope: Each envelope has attack, decay, sustain, and release settings. Assume there are 10 settings per envelope. Total for Envelopes: Envelope Combinations = 4 (envelopes) × 1 0 4 (settings per envelope) = 40 , 000 Envelope Combinations=4 (envelopes)×10 4 (settings per envelope)=40,000 4. LFOs (Low-Frequency Oscillators) Number of LFOs: Assume there are 4 LFOs. Settings per LFO: Each LFO has rate and depth settings. Assume there are 10 settings per LFO. Total for LFOs: LFO Combinations = 4 (LFOs) × 1 0 2 (settings per LFO) = 400 LFO Combinations=4 (LFOs)×10 2 (settings per LFO)=400 5. Effects Types: Assume there are 10 different effects (e.g., reverb, delay, distortion). Settings per Effect: Each effect has several settings (e.g., mix, feedback). Assume there are 10 settings per effect. Total for Effects: Effect Combinations = 10 (effects) × 10 (settings) = 100 Effect Combinations=10 (effects)×10 (settings)=100 6. Modulation Routing Types: Assume there are 10 different modulation routings. Settings per Routing: Each routing might have several options for depth and shape. Assume there are 10 settings per routing. Total for Modulation Routing: Modulation Routing Combinations = 10 (routings) × 10 (settings) = 100 Modulation Routing Combinations=10 (routings)×10 (settings)=100 Overall Combination Estimation Combining these features together: Total Combinations = Oscillator Combinations × Filter Combinations × Envelope Combinations × LFO Combinations × Effect Combinations × Modulation Routing Combinations Total Combinations=Oscillator Combinations×Filter Combinations×Envelope Combinations×LFO Combinations×Effect Combinations×Modulation Routing Combinations Substituting in the values: Total Combinations = 30 × 40 × 40 , 000 × 400 × 100 × 100 Total Combinations=30×40×40,000×400×100×100 Total Combinations = 30 × 40 × 40 , 000 × 400 × 100 × 100 = 9.6 × 1 0 10 (96 billion) Total Combinations=30×40×40,000×400×100×100=9.6×10 10 (96 billion) Conclusion With this simplified approach, we estimate that there are around 96 billion possible combinations of settings on the Waldorf Iridium synthesizer. This estimate considers various parameters and settings, highlighting the extensive range of sound design possibilities available with this synthesizer. The actual number might be even higher due to the continuous nature of many parameters and the interaction between different settings.

Exploring the Waldorf Iridium Synthesizer Imagine the Waldorf Iridium synthesizer is like a giant, super cool LEGO set. You can build lots of different things with it by putting together different pieces in many ways. Here’s how it works: 1. Different LEGO Blocks Oscillators: These are like different types of LEGO blocks. You can choose from different kinds to start building your sound. Imagine you have 3 types of blocks to choose from and each type has 10 different colors and shapes you can use. Filters: These are like special LEGO pieces that change the shape of your building. You have 4 types of these pieces, and each one can be adjusted in 10 different ways. Envelopes: These are like instructions for how your LEGO building should change over time. You have 4 different instruction sets, and each set has 10,000 different ways to tell your LEGO building how to grow and change. LFOs: These are like moving parts in your LEGO set that make things wiggle or spin. You have 4 of these, and each one can be set in 10 different ways. Effects: These are like extra cool decorations you can add to your LEGO building, like sparkly lights or spinning wheels. You have 10 types of decorations, and each one can be adjusted in 10 different ways. Modulation Routing: These are like special tracks that guide how your LEGO building parts move or interact with each other. You have 10 different tracks, and each can be set in 10 different ways. Putting It All Together When you mix and match all these different blocks, pieces, instructions, decorations, and tracks, you get a huge number of possible creations. If you try to count every single possible combination of blocks, instructions, decorations, and tracks, you would get a number so big it’s like this: 96,000,000,000 (that’s 96 billion!) This means you can create a mind-boggling number of different sounds, just like you could build a huge number of different LEGO creations with so many blocks and instructions. Each combination of pieces and settings makes something unique and special. So, with the Waldorf Iridium synthesizer, you have a giant playground for making tons of different and amazing sounds, just like a giant LEGO set with endless possibilities!

For those asking, what I mean is importing wavetables created in other ways (spectrally, mathematically, etc.), not just with “drawing” waveforms in the user waveform editor. This is fun for like 5 minutes, but proper wavetables are not drawn, they are computed. There are many sources for interesting wavetables (not to mention my own gargantuan collection) and it’s a shame they can’t easily be imported here. (Otherwise, this plugin is easy to get to grips with, authentic sounding, etc., but I really don’t “get” doing software emulations of classic instruments that don’t add modern QOL and versatility improvements. Obviously, with a wavetable synth, the most important of these would be easily accessing external waveforms and wavetables.) I won’t comment on the price here.

Vielen Dank für das gute Video. Wenn man das Filter vergleicht, hört man selbst auf Lautsprechern eines Mobiltelefons, dass das Plugin nicht mit der Hardware mithalten kann. Warum können 99% aller Plugin-Hersteller keine überzeugenden Filter machen? Das Filter des Plugins klingt generisch, hat keine Power: es klingt dünn und verliert Transienten. Schade, denn eigentlich reizt mich die Software-Variante des Klassikers. Der MW hat damals alles aus dem Weg geräumt. Dem Plugin aber fehlt der Druck in den Tiefen, vor allem wenn man die Resonanz aufdreht, verhält es sich so schwach wie alle Softsynths.
