The powerful Quantum engine now in a compact unit. The Waldorf Iridium Digital Synthesizer is perfect for sound designers and musicians alike providing you with a groundbreaking synth engine that allows you to create without boundaries. The wide range of sound shaping controls allows you to take charge of tonality modulation and much more. It features a 16-voice polyphony with duo-timbral performance with a trilogy of oscillators which can be used for a variety of modes. The 16 pad RGB backlit matrix is ideal for creating sequences and more. The Iridium also has a built-in arpeggiator as well as 6 envelopes and 6 LFOs. You can also combine both LFO and envelopes using the Komplex Modulator for unique results. Modulate your tones with the three stereo filters available per voice with a wide range of modes. Navigate between settings and controls using the built-in touch screen display for quick and easy operation. Experience the future of sound design today.
Superior sound engine technology
The Waldorf Iridium takes the same sound engine used within the Quantum housing it with a compact desktop synth. The powerful engine offers infinite possibilities in sound production. With a range of controls and effects you can experiment with endless sound variations. Featuring eight voices with speech and spectrum functionality. You can simultaneously play several notes. Adding incredible depth and character to your sound. At the core is 3 digital oscillators that can run 1 of 4 synthesis algorithms independently of one another. The first algorithm which utilises wavetable synthesis allows you to sweep through wavetables to create sound. While the second is waveform mode. This offers all your traditional subtractive waves such as sine and square wave
Powerful and versatile sound design options
The Iridium is jam packed with LFOs envelopes and complex modulation options which allow you to create any sound you can imagine. With six envelopes and six low frequency oscillators the synth can create powerful and hard-hitting sounds with the tweak of a few knobs. The unique Modulation Matrix provides you with 40 slots which you can incorporate various sources such as envelopes and LFOs for in-depth control. A unique feature is the ability to create additional envelopes or LFOs utilising the Komplex Modulator. You can use the custom Modulator to create new parameters to expand your sound design palette. There is also a wide range of filtering options including both 12 and 24dB LP/HP/Bandpass filters to sculpting and texturising oscillators. There are a variety of filters which are modelled on famous synth including the Waldorf Nave Largo and more. You can also use the Dual Filter mode to control each of the filter separately or simultaneously.
Ergonomic layout for creating with ease
In spite of the large and varied controls the Iridium makes it easier than ever to create sounds on the fly. The logic-based layout features dedicated knobs for major controls. It also features a touchscreen display which you can use to easily navigate settings and parameters. The streamlined workflow and wide variety of connectivity allows you to use the Iridium for everything from sound design to live performances.
