Waldorf Blofeld

Waldorf Blofeld
VA synthesizer

My Blofeld I acquired after that compared what is available out there on the market (most bang for the bucks even today). When I got it, I went through the market and came to the conclusion that Blofeld was one of the most cost effective synthesizers available on the market.
It can be broadly comparable to the Waldorf Q and micro-Q. And with SL (sampling license) you get a 64 MB sampler inside the box.
