Waldorf WDF-LGO overview
- 1Description
The Waldorf Largo Software Synthesizer Plug-In is the first purely software synthesizer with Waldorf DNA. Largo features the technology used in the Blofeld and Q hardware synthesizers. Plus, it's designed for the greatest economy of motion and ease of use. The user-interface is friendly and intuitive as well. Largo is equipped with three fat oscillators and two sub oscillators. They include classic waveforms and a selection of waves from the PPG and Waldorf Wave Wavetables. All oscillators run through two Multimode filters that feature drive stages that add even more punch to the sound.
Like other Waldorf synthesizers, Largo features high-end, top-quality filters including a band pass filter, high pass filter, low pass filter and notch filter - which are all available with a 12 or 24 dB slope. They're all absolutely accurate and add amazing sonic quality to your music. Largo also features a flexible arpeggiator with 16 freely programmable steps, similar to the Q synthesizer line.
Another highlight of the Largo Software Synthesizer is its selection of quality effects including Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Overdrive, Delay and Reverb. Given all that Largo has to offer, it's imperative that the user-interface is clearly arranged in a way that helps you to create, rather than displaying a confusing interface that slows the whole process down. Luckily, Largo is intelligently designed. And, with an architecture that mirrors the Blofeld and Q hardware synthesizers - it's hard to go wrong.
