    Due to the fact that I really don't like the factory presets, I decided to program some own sounds for this little monster. I tried to cover a wide range of sounds, including bass, bellish, wavetable and string sounds but also sampling, granular and sequences. Some of you want to hear sounds without effects so I bypassed them from time to time. I also jumped between some menu pages so you can see a few configuations. Have a look on the modulations - there are some surprises!

    Ich kann von Quantum sehen, was es gibt, und bin jedes Mal total begeistert. Der für mich mit Abstand beste Synthesizer, den ich gesehen resp. gehört habe. Auch diese Demo lässt keine Zweifel aufkommen, dass ich dieses Gerät haben muss (ich las eben den Artikel zu Dave Smith's neuem Prophet X im KEY's, was mich nicht von meiner Entscheidung abgebracht hat).
    Feine Demo!

      Beowulf Wahnfried Weise Entscheidung! Ich habe mich leider für den Prophet X entschieden, weil Waldorf 1 1/2 Jahre nur mistige Demos gepostet hat. Ich bereue es zutiefst. Der Prophet X ist völlig unausgereift, voller Bugs, hat ein antiquiertes User Interface; viele Samples klingen dumpf und muffig, und der ‚User Support‘ ist eine Frechheit.

    WALDORF NEEDS TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS ASAP:
    •The screen touch response is pretty BAD, first and foremost
    •Fix Multisampling workflow
    •Latch to external Keyboards
    •Visual feedback on the Wavetable scroll
    •Step Sequencer increase (32 steps is too short for the SEQ)
    •Undo feature (at least one step)

  • @samuelc.reyesjr9684

    Great video. Thanks for sharing. Just curious, with your expertise with the Blofeld, could most of these sounds be produced using the Blofeld? As much as I would love to have a Quantum, somehow I keep thinking that the Blofeld is not that far off from what the Quantum can typically produce.

    • @SynthesizerVideo
      @SynthesizerVideo  5 років тому +1

      Thanks :) The Blofeld can sound better than most people think. But the Quantum has other possibilities (like granular synthesis, sequencer, other effects...) and has a better sound quality. The bass is clearer, the transients are snapier, you can hear more details. All in all, the two machines are too different. But everyone has to make an own decision if the plus is worth $3800.

    "The Most Creamy Thing" 5:07 sounds like an Xpander - and when you detune it at the end it's what it feels like when the ecstasy kicks in. Not that I condone the use of recreational drugs. Every sound here is excellent and you should be writing preset banks for Waldorf Music. I Initially thought that the UI needed some help, but upon second thought, it's very retro basic. And heck, how bad was the UI on the PPG Waveterm ;). Due to this synth having firmware updates, do you expect Waldorf to implement FM?

    • @SynthesizerVideo
      @SynthesizerVideo  5 років тому +1

      The samples in my Quantum are actually not that amazing: A lot of noise, bell and chime sounds, some drones and effects. I think, every owner of a Quantum has to load own samples into this machine (via SD card) to fulfill the individual wishes.

    On 11.30 and 20.54 I see a kind of xy controller. You did n’t touch it.
    Can you explain what you can do with it?
    Ein Klavier is already in or did you put it in?
    What an amazing machine!
    Thanks.

    • @SynthesizerVideo

      The XY screen can be used for modulation. You can route X and Y to any parameter with the modulation matrix and then play it with your fingers (i.e. LFO1 speed is X and LFO2 speed is Y and so on...).
      The piano samples were already in the Quantum but they were not used in a patch/sound. So the samples came from Waldorf and I did the configuration for key and velocity ranges in the sound.

    Can I ask, how did you make that pad starting at 5:00. Just wonering if you could recreate that on the Blofeld, I know it's not the same filter though, did you use any layering, or wavetables for that? Would you be willing to do a small walkthrough of that specific patch. The Granmothers clock sequence is pretty amazing too, especially the last bit. The patch called STL is just really cool, I want to ask if you can walk through that as well, I have so many questions haha

    • @jean-louispech4921
      @jean-louispech4921 6 років тому +4

      for a creamy sound on the blofeld you need the phaser effect ( and may be the delay ), saw waves or PWM, and ... a lot of tube saturation on the PPG filter ( this is the secret element of the recipe).
      He is using a 8 waves supersaw with detune for the waveform. Then this is not for the blofeld if you want to recreate the sound at the perfection.

    • @SynthesizerVideo
      @SynthesizerVideo  6 років тому +3

      Yeah, jean-louis pech explained it quite good! I use sawtooth oscillators with detune, unisono, phaser and reverb. Also using a notch filter type which is frequency modulated by a slow LFO, which makes it about 17% more creamy ;) Don't forget to stereo-spread the unisono voices in the Blofeld. Watch my videos about 1. Unisono-Spreading ("10 Facts and Tricks"), 2. Reverberation ("Best Reverb") and 3. Phasing ("Best Phaser")!

      yeah, you can make that sound on the Blofeld - I made at least a half dozen different supersaw-style pads on the Blofeld for my recent soundsets, and they can be modded up to sound more like the one here with changes to the Noise and Phaser levels
