One important feature of the Blofeld LFOs is that higher rates reach well into the audio frequency range, thus making them useful extra FM sources.

Waldorf Blofeld Manual

The Waldorf Blofeld is a synthesizer combining virtual analogue synthesis with wavetable synthesis, and FM synthesis. It is available as a small desktop unit and as a 49 key velocity and aftertouch sensitive keyboard version. The keyboard version features some extra controls such as two performance wheels and up/down transpose keys to shift the keyboard range up and down.[2] It was named after Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the leader of the fictional SPECTRE from Ian Fleming's James Bond series. Two subsequent Waldorf synthesizers were named after Bond villains (the Stromberg and Largo). Spectre is also the name of the Waldorf application for sending sound files to the machine, providing the user owns a license.

The 25-voice, 16 part multitimbral instrument is marketed as a low-cost unit that can reproduce the sounds from previous Waldorf synthesizers in the Q and Wave lines.[3]

Both versions feature a stereo output, headphone output and a USB port for computer control and firmware updates. The desktop unit has MIDI In and the keyboard unit has both In and Out. The desktop unit is powered by a wall wart power supply.

A number of sound packs are available for purchase. Some require a specific sample licence - again at an additional cost.

Sunday Synth Jam: Australian synthesist ascetik shared this ‘Ambient Frippertronics’ piece, inspired by the Fripp & Eno tape loop albums of the 1970’s.

Here’s what ascetik shared about the technical details of the performance:

Playing the Waldorf Blofeld through a 15 second delay, to create a constantly evolving sound-on-sound mosaic; this is a technique popularized by Brian Eno and Robert Fripp in the 70s and is the sonic equivalent to an artist continuously layering paint on a canvas.

Apr 10, 2018  You can use an Irig 2 with any Mac that has 3.5 mm headphone jack with Support for Apple iPhone headset with remote and microphone. If the Support for Apple iPhone headset with remote and microphone is missing, you cannot use the iRig 2 as an input splitter. Usually the Mac models built after 2008 will have this support. Apr 29, 2018  In this video I share my top 5 tips to help you get started with GarageBand on Mac! Get Set Up: 0:29 Track Types: 2:02. A Beginner's Guide to Garageband w/ iRig - Duration: 16:02. Channel C.G.E. Can you use irig with garageband on mac. Apr 04, 2011  As you'll hear, there's not a lot of noise with the guitar clips - even with an insane amount of fuzz. The noise gate in GarageBand takes care of a lot of it. The bass clip is a bit noisier, but please note that my bass' pickups aren't the quietest to start with. I was also shocked at how well the amp models in GarageBand respond to effect pedals. The main pluses being that I can hook up the iRig and get recording in seconds then when i’m done I can transfer my GB IOS projects into Garageband ’11 on my Mac, and ether continue to work on them or build a full, properly recorded track around my ‘sketch’.
