Waldorf Music

Using an ASIC designed by Wolfgang Palm, the company developed the Microwave and later the WAVE synthesizers.

While many other synthesizer manufacturers focused on recreating existing hardware in software, Waldorf took a different approach.

In 2002, they introduced the RackAttack, a hardware drum synthesizer, whose synth engine had been released as a VST instrument the year prior.

Shortly before this, the company had been restructured into an Aktiengesellschaft (Waldorf Music AG), but the effort was unsuccessful.

[3] In 2014, Waldorf released the Streichfett, a synthesizer designed to recreate the sound of vintage string machines.

PPG Wave 2.x series (1981-1987), designed by Wolfgang Palm , was a predecessor of Waldorf The WAVE and Microwave .
