I am trying to see if I can borrow one, cause I haven't heard anything that interests me much in the way of the sound design I am into.
Youtube demos are presets on display...but you can't really judge a synth from its presets.
Peace out.

use largo to try ,sound close... for the price of the blofled i m not sure there is something better for psy as hardware when buying new tbh ,it can do fabulous kicks and drums, soundscape,all sort of leads,good fm... it s great .
i was thinking to update but largo is good for editing cost less, some say it s less muddy..the fx are way better..no bugs.
the Q is better in soundquality imo ,but not same price.. |

great wee box, does anything you want
but has a very sterile digital sound
good with samples as well
just an arse too work with

bought it and sold it 3 months later.
It's to sterile sounding for me, and the menu surfing is a pain in the butt  dont get me wrong its easy and all laid out good, but nevertheless i didnt like it

nice sine waves tho
found them quite creamy and fit into the mixreally well
but for the same money you could ppick up a virus b
still got mine to this day.....better than the TI2 imo
or get the digi output mod for the blofeld and get aroung those cheep ased crusty D/A convertors

to be honest.......its gonna be the pulse 2 for psy in my book..if they dont go and change the spec of the thing and give it a load of digital shit
easier menu by the look of things and you wont worry bout other V.As coming along that sound better like eh.....!! DIVA

the more i read about waldorf the more i m not suprised they went out of buisness in the past...tbh after reading so much bad things on gearslutz i would think twice before buying any of their products, lot of users are not satisfied cause of build quality and bugs,flaws in their synths, maybe it s exaggerated dunno..too bad cause their synth do sound good |

+1 pom
the company seem to rest on their laurels a bit and move at a glacial speed
as much as i cant wait too hear the pulse 2
im still very sseptical about the oscillators on it as after reading the spec s for it at waldorf.de at the bottom of the list they say that "All specifications subject to change without notice"
but hey lets hope they follow through with this and keep the whole thing analogue
