However, unlike its predecessors, the Blofeld can load two different wavetables into oscillators one and two, creating more complex and evolving sounds. The Blofeld features 68 wavetables, including tables from the Microwave II, Microwave XT, Q, Micro Q and PPG Wave. All three oscillators have classic analog modeled waveforms, while Osc1 and Osc2 can also act as wavetable generators. It sports three oscillators per voice and two multi mode filters. The Blofeld is descended from the Waldorf Q, Micro Q and Microwave II wavetable synthesizers (all of which were themselves descendants of the classic PPG Wave). Black versions of both models were also released. The Blofeld was first released in a stylish white desktop module and was followed up a year later with a four-octave keyboard version plus the addition of onboard sample RAM. This compact and affordable wavetable synthesizer boasts one of the most complex digital engines on the market and is well equipped to compete with other powerful digital synthesizers such as the Alesis Ion and Access Virus TI Snow. The release of the Blofeld synthesizer in 2007 helped resurrect Waldorf Music GmbH from near extinction.
