Waldorf IRIDIUM DESKTOP Digital Synthesizer Advanced Hybrid Sound Design Module

The Waldorf IRIDIUM DESKTOP Digital Synthesizer Advanced Hybrid Sound Design Module Combining their groundbreaking wavetable oscillator with a suite of paradigm shifting sound sources and modulators, Iridium excels at crafting complex, evolving soundscapes from shimmering celestial pads to thunderous bass and searing leads. With tactile control knobs, a high-resolution display, and a 16 pad touch matrix, Iridium offers both intuitive control and infinite sonic exploration.

Expansive Sound Generation

At its core, Iridium features three oscillators, each capable of operating in five modes: Wavetable, Waveform, Resonator, Particle Generator, and Kernel Synthesis. Like Waldorf’s flagship Quantum, Iridium delivers sweeping wavetable sound generation alongside classic waveforms such as sawtooth, triangle, and square. Warp functionality allows dynamic morphing between shapes, while advanced modes like Resonator, Particle Generator, and Kernel Synthesis push the boundaries of synthesis into uncharted sonic territory.

Limitless Signal Manipulation

Iridium is a sound designer’s dream, offering dual filters, six envelope generators, six LFOs, and a Komplex Modulator for unparalleled flexibility. Its Digital Former section expands the palette with comb filtering, bitcrushing, and ring modulation. With a powerful 40-slot Modulation Matrix, Iridium provides virtually limitless routing possibilities, allowing you to sculpt sounds with precision - from raw and gritty to polished and pristine.

Immersive Controls and Multi-touch Display

Despite its vast depth, Iridium ensures a streamlined creative process. Its one knob per function layout and classic synthesizer design make it immediately playable, while the intuitive high-resolution multi-touch display encourages deeper sonic sculpting without slowing down creativity. This seamless integration of hardware and digital control ensures that Iridium stays inspiring and performance-ready at all times.
