WALDORF IRIDIUM Desktop MK2
Multi-Waveform Desktop Synthesizer
Der Waldorf Iridium Desktop MK2 ist ein leistungsstarker Multi-Waveform Synthesizer der neuesten Generation und richtet sich an anspruchsvolle Sounddesigner, Produzenten und Musiker. Mit erweitertem Speicher, optimierter CPU und neuen Synthese-Features eröffnet er völlig neue kreative Möglichkeiten.
Dank innovativer Funktionen wie Per-Note-Parameter-Locks lassen sich individuelle Klangvariationen pro gespielter Note erzeugen – für einzigartige, lebendige Sounds. Die neue „Seeds“-Synthese erweitert die klassische Wavetable-Klangerzeugung um dynamische Klangstrukturen und ermöglicht komplexe Sounddesigns.
Mit bis zu vier multitimbralen Layern, umfangreichen Effekten und modernen Performance-Funktionen bietet der Iridium MK2 maximale Flexibilität im Studio und auf der Bühne. Ob elektronische Musik, Film-Sounddesign oder experimentelle Klangwelten – dieser Synthesizer setzt neue Maßstäbe in der digitalen Klangerzeugung.
