Product information "Waldorf Protein"
Boost your Sound with Waldorf Protein!
With Protein, Waldorf brings the magic of classic wavetable synthesis into a modern, compact and affordable instrument — powerful, inspiring, alive.
Classic Waldorf DNA — reinterpreted! Based on the legendary oscillators of the Microwave 1 and expanded with modern features from the Iridium series, Protein combines vintage charm with forward‑looking technology.
The simplest and at the same time most affordable way so far to dive into the fascinating Waldorf wavetable world.
