Sounds of Revolution SOR Waldorf Microwave Presets Synth Presets

Waldorf Microwave Presets has 131 patches (67 programs and 64 multis/splits). You get evolving ambient textures, organic pads, classic house stabs, hard-pumping basses, unique effects, glassy, cold, and powerful leads, and many wonderful analogue-sounding patches. The presets are simultaneously modern and retro and go well with every genre of electronic music. Most of the sounds can be altered via Aftertouch, Bender, and/or Modulation.

As this unusual Synth never fails to impress with its distinct sound, I have added the Microwave 1 plugin to my SOR-Blog under “Best Synth VST Plugins”. I really enjoy these slightly gritty, broken wavetable tones and the powerful filter, which sounds truly unique. It's simply a fantastic recreation of a classic!

The download of 'SOR Waldorf Microwave Presets' includes the original synth patches (MIDI File dump) I produced for the classic hardware synthesizer (128 patches) and a revised and perfected new version for the Plugin (131 patches). 24 MIDI files are also included for musical inspiration and context; you can hear them in the demo.

Please note: Since the Microwave 1 has no internal effects, a few standard effect plugins were used for the demo. All sounds, except the drums, are from the Microwave 1 plugin.

The classic Waldorf Microwave hardware synthesizer is a digital/analog hybrid in which digitally sampled wavetables are processed via analog VCA envelope and VCF sections (filters). The result is a classic, warm, and mighty sound. For me, this cult device sounds simply breathtaking. His specialty is hard techno/rave noises, deep basses, and typical house stabs! He also excels at gentle lead sounds à la Vangelis. I believe the analog sounds produced by the Microwave are significantly better than the digital sounds produced by its successor, the Microwave 2. Ever since the plugin version, a Microwave with its distinct personality belongs in every arsenal because it simply sounds different than everything else.
