Waldorf Microwave XT : 3 sketch tracks : 1 single preset

[@sK3LeTvM1]

Thank you for keeping the XT alive! I'm the lucky owner of a XTK 30-voice. They are amazing machines, and more recent synths like the Blofeld or M, unfortunately for the owners, don't come near the XT/K or MW1 & 2. They are all direct descendants from the PPG2.3 and Waldorf Wave and all these synths can imho be considered (together with the Q which I also own) as Waldorfs last 'artisanal' synths. They are true 'exotics' and that is what you hear.

does it expand up to 30 voice ?

[@sK3LeTvM1]

@@saren6538 Yes! (if you can still find the voice expansion - unfortunately they are expensive)

Just dug mine out after many years to rediscover it again. Brought it new back in the 90's sometime. I love the arpeggiator in there, hours of fun. Also had the old Radikal Technologies Spectralis out, I'm still trying to figure out how it works after nearly 20 years, its a bit of a monster. Hopefully get them paired up soon.

Thank you

why do i think this sounds better than a microwave 1, i have the money ready for an XT or MW1 .... just not sure

Theres no substitute for all the knobs. The UX is very well done and it's addicting. You can basically play it as well as MPE synths.

@@xfloodcasual8124 there is a sub....the sound and analog filter

Oh yes. A classic except for who ever they hired to do the paint. I still have one I bought new and the ugly orange paint is turning brown and rotting off. Hideous paint job. Like a Ferrari with an Earl Scheib job. But I don't care, it is still one of the best 90's synths, for me it is one of my favorites, compares to my Prophet VS. I hope they fired the paint supervisor :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqXNlXuXgsqcn7M
