[@clarius1973]

The best synth-tester on the whole internet

[@ropeburn6684]

Only after WC Olo Garb, but being second to him is nothing but an honour.

[@charlesrochfort1228]

Couldn't agree more !

[@jeshkam]

@@ropeburn6684 Agreed 100%. My fellow Polish guy is a genius, or quite close to being one.

[@tobb01]

Amazing demo. This guy has amazing talent on this machine, but i lost it at 8:30 Sounds beautiful, but that name man... 10/10 would buy

[@michelcury]

Would be great see a new demo of this great synth 😍

[@keytar00]

Amazing man!!! In his hands every synth becomes an extraordinary machine!!

[@stryker1999]

Katsunori-sensei is the MAN when it comes to demos. With just a few notes, a patch comes to life in a way you might not have expected. And he uses lots of wonderful notes!

[@michaelbauers8800]

+keytar00 Sure seems like it. As most demos are not inspiring, you have to feel this guy has a real gift for it

[@rosscairnsTV]

this man is a legend! all other reviews I haven't been that sold on this synth but he's chose great presets to work with and he's very talented at playing!

[@markellis3887]

Thank you Ujiie-san! Really great demonstration & I just purchased this keyboard, thanks to you. It seems very versatile and a joy to play.

[@lesixiemejour]

Une démo d'une très grande qualité, comme toujours ! ... Et aussi, ici la seule démo sur ce synthé que j'ai entendu et qui nous montre les possibilités de la machine sur des sons exploitable pour de la pop et du funk ... et avec un jeux pianistique toujours chaleureux... cool ! .. Merci beaucoup Mister Katsunori ;)

[@daryljohnson3896]

Amazing Intsrument , just got one, so easy and fun to play, awesome sounds out the box, pressure sensitive!!! i'm no synthesist but i truly believe in the potential of this instrument, best bang for the buck in my opinion, a keeper for sure!

[@CandlegravityStudio]

By far the best Blofeld video on KZbin. Thank you!

[@HotStrange]

I own one of these and it’s probably my favorite synth ever. It’s so powerful and sounds so good. It’s also got that German utilitarian design that I love.

[@jeshkam]

Do they still produce/sell this synth?

[@Methanol2000]

Katsunori has the best synth demos I've seen!

[@noughtimus]

Waldorf makes outstanding synthesizers. Respect.

[@eduardopagnani1764]

Grazie Maestro! Ho appena scoperto questo gioiello e ne ho comprato uno. Grazie!!❤️

[@eduardotrevino1143]

the guitar part around 4:30 is unbelievable, not only the sound is terrific but the part he plays, it is just amazing....

[@bobrobertson9547]

Great demo. Thanks for sharing.

[@ohhyeahh21]

Great demo! Thanks

[@brhodes0]

Thanks for demoing this. I will get the desktop version. Very nice playing :D

[@keytar00]

Katsunori genio assoluto...riesce sempre a trovare la musica migliore per ciascun suono.

[@SynthPlaysYou]

Great demo, not many demos in youtube show the samples.

[@surrounded]

I like the "Thriller" sounding sound. Thanks man! You are a beast!

[@Guacamole1000]

that sound is from "Beat It" not Thriller

[@tachelesreden]

Yes, these are the presets!But you can easily change the parameter (like filters)

[@javiertrevino5535]

that guitar part is so epic. nice synth

[@brofjw]

Paired with my Kawai K5000S? A union of unimaginable beauty, I'm sure.

[@realtrance]

I like this guy's spirit.

[@hellcoreproductions]

Aftertouch sensitivity is set per patch via the mod matrix basically, FWIW there are a bunch of velocity curves also in the global settings.

[@mathbsound]

The blofeld has a very unique GUI the screen detail on the parameters of the filters, lfos, modulator matrix and oscillators helps a lot. The large screen is very usable but takes some time to fully exploit the depth of the feature on it. its a good balance between sound flexibility, programing, hands on control, and build quality (all metal).

[@robertstevensilverstein4742]

brilliant a half of a century in that thing!

[@doom705]

great wavetable sounds :D

[@SubaruHoshikawa11]

I bought Waldorf some time ago, it's so powerful that I can't handle it properly yet :D It's amazing synthesizer, maybe now I will be able to make some simple BGMs to my projects ^_^ The movie itself is done with attention and preparation to show best things about Waldorf, I like it ^_^

[@Nausea85]

I got the blofeld when it cane out in 08..great synth

[@TrioOfDoom]

Blofeld is still the go-to hardware synth for atmospheric sounds.

[@MichaelMolli]

Thanks for your reply.

[@bitley]

I love your demos! :-) Would you like to review my Fairlight Platinum ReFill for Reason 6?

[@Suzukisenpai]

Fantastic and beauty melodies, harmonies ... What are you playing in this video?

[@ethnikLSD]

Waldorf Blofeld will be my next ^^ .....need that sound

[@itstherubberduck]

this guy really does the Waldorf justice!

[@rickr.mortis4821]

Just got the Modular version yesterday. I'm lovin' it!!

[@jeshkam]

They're still manufacturing it??

[@rickr.mortis4821]

@@jeshkam Yes. I ordered mine from Sweetwater.

[@jeshkam]

@@rickr.mortis4821 Thank you.

[@SupraBow]

Analog is surrounded with hype today, and a lot of people jumped into the wagon forgetting or never knowing that digital sounds excellent and sattisfying too.

[@MusisiKamarIndo]

Just bought this beauty, so far no problem. My only concern is that the reverb sounds really bad. The rest is rock solid, so far no lag or hang, definitely satisfied with my purchase.

[@slipknotboy555]

Yeah, me too. For the time being, I use analog for drums and bassline, and my digital for things like pads.

[@EvilDragon666]

@culturaleyes Basically, yes, and with activated 60 MB of flash ROM samples, so you don't need to purchase Licence SL as you have to do with desktop Blofeld.

[@noisevector]

Sound @ 2:05 is great!

[@omaritoure2160]

@doom705 it sounds good though dude, sometime you want that digital sound

[@petermoore8811]

Very true.

[@kfrncs]

Well.. I'm sold.

[@RaJuRMusica]

Are you playing in " multi mode" using 3 midi channels? I would pay more for 4-6 outputs!!!!!

[@LesFarrington]

i sold my blofeld desktop and Keyboard due to the bugs. but i am looking for another keyboard because i cant get over the loss of the SOUND. i will put up with whatever little bugs it has because the sound of the blofeld is just so good. and the keybed felt so good. i have a Pulse 2 and its awesome but the Blofeld gives everything a run for its money. AND THIS GUY IS A GREAT PLAYER!~

[@matsh51]

Did you update to latest OS? I didn't experience any bugs with latest update. Would rather have a Waldorf Q+ though, would they be cheap and reliable...

[@christopherfarrell-artist3557]

They are still fixing bugs ( which is a good sign 10+ years on )...the latest 1.25 fixed the encoder issue. My machine is flawless, finally.

[@aex2170]

Blofeld or Ultranova? sound quality. Thanks for your reviews!

[@neoseyes]

Both

[@clarius1973]

from 7:36 to 8:03 STUNNING sound.

[@TheShaktube]

clarius1973 That is actually the sound I spent yesterday emulating on my fa08! All my life there have been these individual, unique patches like that that made me pine for what is otherwise belt and suspenders for my rig.

[@sonorzepp]

I didn't understand a word, but he made a good job. Blofeld sounds exellent :)

[@MichaelMolli]

Hi, how would you rate the quality of the keys compared to other cheap feeling keyboards like Korg X50 for example or others in the price range?

[@Deeplycloseted435]

M. Molli Blofeld has a fatar keybed. All steel construction. Built like a tank, and a better keybed than any other synth I own. It is my primary MIDI keyboard for that reason.

[@1977dkrueger]

Waldorf Blofeld Keyboard = very good synth!

[@philoupaulo]

Ujiie is so wonderful He could sale a Bontempi !

[@marcochirico7504]

:-D

[@omaritoure2160]

@MomoTheBellyDancer oh ok lol. Me too. I'm aspiring musician though. Learning.

[@Inverted314]

I think this would be perfect for synth in a metal band. I need a board that has exception synth sounds so I don't really want a motif, but it's nice you can bring up a piano for an intro or something. You don't really need amazing pianos in metal anyways with all the processing and distortion already taking place.

[@audrimotif]

TOP !!!!!!!

[@Barelinio]

@GreifDich I never meant to imply you were a Tanzmusikant :) (sorry to all non-german speakers) About the piano: If you want a good piano sound, the sample option is not for you, it's great for experimental sounds, less for recreating real instruments. Better hook your Blofeld up your PC and start a software piano. Like CVPiano from Tascam. It's free, just search for it. Have fun! :)

[@doom705]

@TheShledge no i wish the filters were analog.

[@christopherfarrell-artist3557]

What is the pedal you are using?

[@dbjungle]

I like my Blofeld, but I don't love it. It has a huge sonic variety, but the sounds are very thin sounding usually. I might enjoy it more with a good chorus plugin. The presets are very uninspiring to say the least, but you can get some good stuff programming it.

[@noijze]

Love it, now i need some money :P

[@culturaleyes]

Is this basically a desktop blofeld with a keyboard attached?

[@Flaggag]

lead at 2.36 was the same used in MJ’s Thriller.~

[@EvilDragon666]

@nairobibeats Correct!

[@charlieplatnum]

Will these patches sound just as good one they're translated into english?????

[@Jauly]

@YuzoTibi ih yes at least I can. fat synths sound fat in bad quality too. I've experienced that all modern synths lack physical punch because their sound is adjusted to be clear over all.

[@ethnikLSD]

the pad 5:42 .....AMAZING !!

[@MusisiKamarIndo]

I hate that nord lead only have that 1 effect which is the delay. :(

[@paulj0557tonehead]

@trisky1234 Because they all started on 1970's Electones!

[@TheBasshumer]

great vid! Do any one know the size of this thing? I been searching like over the hole web.

[@weaponEX]

Thank you for this demo. You are a great musician - but I prefer sounds of the Virus TI Snow! I wish the Virus snow did a 'small' keyboard like this

[@edfone]

This is a good demo, but on many sound this synh does have something in the high medium that i don't like.

[@gigispeed1331]

Whats the difference between the white and the black other than the colour?

[@lardosian]

Kyle Handy No difference I would say.

[@cresshead]

2:39 in we have the start to beat it from Michael Jackson!

[@SuperBond113]

How to get out of multi mode ?

[@nokia3210fuck]

how many keyboards do you own?

[@Em0killer13]

arigato

[@LCplLockwood]

I don't own this synth, but how do you make the patch at 2:32? Is it using wavetables or what?

[@jackcimino8822]

The patch is using oscillator sync and lots of detuning or phaser effect.

[@snoolee7950]

the best thing about this video is the wristwatch

[@ORALOISE]

7:45 pad yeah!!!!!!!!

[@ORALOISE]

nice playing man!!

[@y34r]

this thing cost much less than nord lead 2x ,but can do much more.. i wish i saw this beast before getting lead 2x....

[@jamesmarkolson]

heck yah...he says: "iv'e heard this somewhere" ;)

[@ReyPerez]

Just buy the desktop version and use any 61 key midi controller you'd like.

[@shortinos]

sounds like ulrich schnauss at the begining. Almost exactly the same as one of his songs.

[@AliothSenator]

MARIMBA!

[@TheUnknownWords]

Please, please, tell me is there any synth with the same characteristics (mb even the same synth) BUT with 61 or more keys... It's really amazing model.

[@YouzTube99]

@TheUnknownWords In the ensuing six years, I assume you figured it out but just in case anyone else has the same question, here's an overview of the desktop version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6LReIKviLyenZI Connect your choice of controller -- you may want to consider one with aftertouch because the Blofeld supports it -- and have fun!

[@zwete]

Why do I always end up here while looking at synthesizers?

[@Astralwurksdk]

He's like the most square excited dorky dude ever.

[@bligstar]

2:32 Michael Jackson - Beat It intro sounf

[@CoolColJ]

@trisky1234 small bones :)

[@javiceres]

@kokeklasick I don't think it's thinner than any digital synth, fatter then lots althoguh you may not perceive it in this video

[@tionik06]

KEYBOARDoh!

[@umakara55]

2:35 MJ rises up from his grave and dancing!

[@MrLawrence0071]

I suppose those are NOT the presets.... Are they??

[@juncgcfad]

German products are great.

[@toxictv4787]

@trisky1234 sake

[@zhou_sei]

u didnt hear the guy? he already said it... "mikuro ehjacksonu"

[@slipknotboy555]

Haha, yes, in that sense, it doesn't matter that it's digital. But for me personally, with synthesizers, it does. My first synth was digital, but now that I have an analog, I will never buy another digital synth. It's just not the same. You can definitely hear the difference

[@Beautyoutofruin]

Personally I like to have both digital and analogue and use them together

[@FJamesPrice]

Bulofeludo Keybodo

[@fffranckable]

JX 8P clone?

[@dustmighte]

Interesting you'd say that, I've got one of those and I've been considering complementing it with a Blofeld.

[@snuppssynthchannel]

Nothing like it at all. The blofeld was based on wavetable synths like the waldorf Q and the waldorf microwave XTK, it is technically a result of the evolution of the great ppg 2.3.
