Deep in the subterranean Waldorf Laboratories, our scientists have finally discovered the finish that delivers the best sound. We almost had forgot about them when they resurfaced and proudly presented the result of their almost endless struggle to find the ideal material: Neither Mauve nor Lavender nor Ochre result in optimal sound, but a special electron absorbing coating in deep black.
The explanation is simple: more absorbed electrons reach the inner digital and analog workings of Blofeld and cause each bit to be stronger pronounced, resulting in a very defined and detailed sound. This makes our new Black Blofeld sound even better than before.
The new black Blofeld is produced 100% in German Schwarzarbeit and is available only on the black market! German Humour isn't it?

With a host of new features and an updated interface, users will not only be able to monitor and configure their AKG wireless systems through an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, but will also have the opportunity to control multiple settings from system design, to soundcheck and during performances, all through Harman's HiQnetTM protocol and a Wi-Fi connection.
Supporting the Apple iPhone 4 retina display, version 2.0 offers advanced control functionality, allowing users to manage and change their wireless system parameters, including the name of the setup and frequency signals. The newly adopted ALERT system automatically issues a warning if there is a low microphone battery or an antenna malfunction. The app also suggests possible solutions for solving signal issues.

Sounds of the Quadra is a fantastic instrument for MAC and PC (kontakt 4) and will allow the user to create the fantastic sounds of this legendary 1978 synthesiser. This instrument has an intuitive user interface based on a real Quadra's front panel. Once loaded into your Kontakt sampler the tens of thousands of lines of programming code creates a virtual Quadra synth with all the functionality of a real Quadra. All Sliders and envelopes have been calibrated and timed to behave like a real Quadra and there are lots of great extra features that really bring the Quadra synthesiser into the modern world. Each section of the Quadra has been created,the Bass synth, String synth, Poly synth and lead synthesiser have all been sampled and a beautiful graphical user interface has been implemented to allow the user to shape the sound from the front panel just like a real Quadra. There are seperate effects sections for each synth section of the Quadra and an analogue sequencer that really gets the creative juices flowing.
