After opening our eyes and ears to its forward-looking quantum synthesizer in 2018, Waldorf Music is proud to present its expander version called Iridium. Following in the footsteps of the Quantum, the Iridium synthesizer has a generous high-resolution touch screen operating – with haptic assistance – in perfect harmony with a judiciously integrated control panel, and positioning of its functions for ultra-easy handling. fast. The obviously different Iridium also offers an integrated 4 x 4 pad matrix, which you can use to trigger sequences, chords, scales and even arpeggios. A quick look under the hood, however, will reveal that the Iridium synthesizer still shares the same oscillator-selectable sound generation processes (OSC 1, OSC 2, and OSC 3). As such, it can convincingly and comprehensively reproduce the sound spectra of the following five synthesis types: wavetable, waveform, particle, resonator and kernels.
