Gearspace - View Single Post - Waldorf M Synthesizer 1.10 RC6 out now.
two new parameters for VCF were added, to allow the analog VCF react on MPE PitchBends independently. They are on the first screen of VCF and pretty self-explanatory - On/Off and Amount
also, I reworked a bit all algos, balancing volumes of them, fixed stupid error in Fold
and increased detune amount for 3SAW algo. Seems like I will not change these 4 anymore, but let we wait for official release.
I will pray to Synth Gods for thisā¦ 
Also make it Orange! And add some effectsā¦
Cmon Waldorf!
yeah I think I was kind of team no built in FX when I first got the M but after getting the Q it has some really nice fx that can add a lot to a sound, especially if you like that sort of 90s 00s era electronic sound. Would be cool to see some FX that met the āflavorā of the Mā¦ actually the MFX pedal and chase bliss lossy both kind of meet the vibe of the M, hard to imagine that waldorf would go all in making something that fits the vibe like that though.
it really would be quite a synth. especially if they added effects. the form factor is what I disliked most about the M as it made it awkward to position well near a full keyboard (at least, in my studio). itād be great if they didnāt even expand on the controls, just spaced them out more to keep it shallower than the Quantum.
Not quite dissimilar to the PPG, the process of generation is the flavor. So while there are OTO Biscuits and WMD Geiger Counter Pros, Ottobit Jrs and all manner of ālo-fiā PT2399 wizardry, you really need a M, Microwave, or inspired gear like the Industrial Music Electronics Piston Honda to proper generate the filth.
Is this a rack version of the M or something new?
That would be the original Microwave.
Weird tease. It seems like itād have to be M related considering it basically started as a 1 to 1 knobby version of the Microwave 1 in terms of voice architecture. A 16 voice m keyboard with poly aftertouch for like $4k would be something. Other than that, maybe they are doing a microwave plugin which would also be kind of weird.
Or I guess an āM coreā with the Iridium core chassis would be kind of interesting for less real estate.
It starts off with the hardware, flattens the knob to a 2d illustration, then ends with a render, Microwave plugin seems likely!
Would be great if they could pack in any of the MW2 features missing from the M.
I might be in the minority, though I love rack gear, wish the format would come back.
Plug in. No money in rack gear any more
The nice thing is that you can always buy the original form!
Thank you! I was being sad that there is no unison!
Iāve tried fixed notes for oscillators + random on pan, filter etc + sending multiple midi notes. But itās not really practically playable with a fixed tone 
So I will explore multimode tomorrow.
Detroit techno (not me)
Second day with M. I might make M my primary motive composing machine. The sound is so inspiring. The shaping options with 1.1 FW are pretty robust.
I didnāt understand the size of the machine the first day but I think I get it now - all the big knobs are basically expression controllers.
What about four identical voices in multitimbral mode, mixed externally? Not quite the same, but with minor variations between them, you could get some pretty huge sounds.
Yes, thatās what I was giving thanks for to the OP
What benefit are you aiming for with mixing it externally rather than internally?
So, how comfortable is it to use the M as a multitimbral synth? Compared to a Digitone or something like that. I love to play around with complex synths but it really bothers me if I get only one sound at a time out of a pretty big machineā¦ And I also hate synths which donāt represent the current state of a patch. Which is something you get with the Elektrons.
Or in other words: Can I use the M like a Digitone minus the sequencer?
