WaveFolder vs Blofeld

WaveFolder is a simple Wave Folding Audio Unit Extension. Wave Folding is an interesting distortion effect that adds harmonics to the original signal by folding the waveform back on itself when it exceeds a clipping threshold. WaveFolder is great for adding spice to monophonic synth leads and rhythmic, tempo based modulations can turn drum loops into totally new entities, while long, slow, free running modulations are perfect for dirty ambient drones. WaveFolder lets you set the folding thresholds and modulate the folding amount and symmetry with tempo based or free running modulators. WaveFolder also includes a wave shaper to add even more interest. There is also a short built-in manual and a selection of colour themes.

The versatile Waldorf synthesizer classic Blofeld now also available for iPad including auv3 for hosts like Logic, Garageband, Cubasis, AUM and others. With the Blofeld app you can also control your hardware and it is compatible with existing Blofeld soundsets. The sound generation of the Blofeld plugin delivers the typical fat and rich Waldorf sound character that so many Waldorf users worldwide love when they are playing their Blofeld, Q, Q+, Microwave, Microwave II/XT or even the flagship, the Wave. The secret of its sound is a powerful wavetable engine that enables these intense and expressive sounds. This unique synthesis system is based on the revolutionary PPG synthesizers of the early 80s. When you hear the Blofeld for the first time, you’ll immediately remember those edgy, assertive or bell-like timbres that have been an integral part of countless worldwide hits since the PPG era.
