AURA Plugins has introduced Waldorf Blofeld Editor & Librarian, a third-party editor for the Waldorf Blofeld.
What they have to say about it:
“With our Editor, you can work with your Waldorf Blofeld the same way you use your virtual instrument plug-ins.
Our Editor will recall your patch settings when you open your project and the data will be sent to your Blofeld automatically once you open your project. Your synthesizer is always synchronized with your session!
The only thing you need to worry, is that you power-up your synthesizer. We also added the ability to load in Waldorf microQ and Q patches!”
Features:
Control Waldorf Blofeld desktop / Blofeld Keyboard synthesizer directly from your DAW.
Automate almost every parameter directly from your DAW.
No need to remember CC’s for each knobs / per synthesizer. Goodbye sticky notes!
Load, Edit and Store patches into hardware memory or in your HDD personal library.
Store any Waldorf microQ / Q / Blofeld compatible soundset in your HDD library folder and browse it from our plugin.
Send banks or individual patches from librarian to hardware.
Request banks or individual patches from hardware to librarian.
Total Recall: When you reopen your project, all of the data used in it, will be sent to the hardware, automatically.
Waldorf Blofeld Editor & Librarian is available now for $69.95.
Developer Cem Olcay let us know that he’s introduced Testere, a new software synthesizer for iOS.
Testere is a 7-oscillator supersaw synth, with per-voice control over detune, phase, waveshape, stereo pan, and a sine wave sub oscillator.
Each oscillator is a wavetable oscillator with a selection of saw waveforms. You can subtly vary the shape across oscillators or push it further for complex harmonic shifts. All detune, phase, flavor, and panning spreads are curve-driven and musically scaled, making the synth flexible, but not overwhelming.
A clean sine sub oscillator is included for adding low-end weight, with adjustable octave and level control.
Developer Iftah Gabbai lets us know that they’ve introduced Slippery Slope, a single-oscillator, mono acid-line synth voice for Ableton Live and Push 3 Standalone.
It’s designed to pair seamlessly with Sting, Gabbai‘s Max For Live sequencer, but it works just as well with any other MIDI sequencer.
Slippery Slope features a simple interface with parameters logically laid out and fully controllable via tabbing, making it accessible to blind, visually impaired, and sighted users.
Slippery Slope is available now as both as a free download and a paid download that helps support future development.
