New Waldorf Protein sound demo, featuring 20 new sounds for the multi-timbral wavetable Synthesizer, plus additional videos to explore.
At the end of November, Waldorf released the Protein, an affordable multi-timbral wavetable Synthesizer. Shortly before leaving for my Christmas holidays, a Protein test unit arrived, and I will now be testing it extensively over the coming weeks.
A few days before Christmas, Waldorf released a new firmware with a new 12dB filter, fixes, and a new patch library. I released a sound demo for the Waldorf Protein, featuring these 20 new ambient/experimental-inspired patches.
