Largo
is the first pure software synthesizer with Waldorf DNA. Largo mirrors
the technology used in Blofeld and Q hardware synthesizers. As with
every Waldorf instrument, ergonomics are a core feature on screen as
well. Your eyes will be pleased with a clearly structured, graphical
user interface that supports your workflow intuitively. Largo offers
three fat oscillators, two of them with sub oscillators. These
oscillators include models of classic analog waveforms as well as a
selection of waves from the PPG and Waldorf Wave stored in two
Wavetables. All these run through two Waldorf multi-mode filters with
steep cut-off, resonance up to self-oscillation and a drive stage to
add even more punch and graininess to the sound. Ultra-fast envelope
generators and flexible LFOs as well as an easy to understand, yet
extremely versatile modulation matrix make for a sound designer's dream.
The
filters have always been a core part of any Waldorf instrument. With
outstanding expertise in both analog and digital synthesis, the
developers took utmost care in developing the filters. Use the comb
filters for plucked, stringed or blown sounds. Band pass, high pass,
low pass and notch filters are all available with 12 dB and 24 dB
slope. All of them sound extremely accurate and add pure sonic quality
to the sound of your music.
Largo contains a flexible
arpeggiator with 16 freely programmable steps as known from the
exclusive Q synthesizer line plus an array of high quality effects such
as Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Overdrive, Delay and Reverb.
The
clearly arranged user interface helps you to create your own powerful
synthesizer sounds in a breeze. Oscillators and filters are always in
direct access while the sub-modules are only a mouse click away. It has
the same exclusive voice architecture as the Q and Blofeld synthesizer
line, fully integrated into the total recall system of your Digital
Audio Workstation.
