A Microwave Heritage Revisited in Desktop Format

The Waldorf M stands as a deliberate homage to the Microwave DNA, combining the "classic" wavetable generation (Microwave I) and the more "modern" approach (Microwave II/XT) in a robust, performance-oriented desktop synthesizer. Its identity lies in this blend between the digital precision of wavetables and analog musicality, thanks to the 24 dB/oct low-pass filter with resonance and saturation, complemented by an analog stereo VCA.

Who Is It For, and Which Styles?

The Waldorf M is especially aimed at advanced musicians and sound designers who want to sculpt evolving timbres typical of wavetable synthesis, while retaining an analog response at the filter and amplification stages. Perfect in the studio for ambient, techno, synthwave, modern pop, or film scoring, it also proves very solid in live settings thanks to its 4-part multitimbrality, multiple outputs, and syncable arpeggiator.
