Waldorf Pulse 2 ...Holy Cow
Just took delivery and have made my way through 50 presets (out of 500!) ... long story short, I am saying Goodbye to my Bass Station 2.
Holy Cow does the filter in the Pulse 2 blow the Bass Station Filter out of the water. I have liked my new Bass Station during this past month but really I only have need for one analog monosynth at this time. The Presets in the Waldorf are inspirational and all over the map. The character is unreal at the price (thanks Eric Dahlberg and Greg Johnson at JRR for hooking me up) .
The Pulse 2 also offers a Paraphonic mode as well for great raw sounding pads and sweeps. This is something other monosynths can't do.
My desktop space is at a premium and the Waldorf takes up a smaller footprint as well. I will miss the big fat Filter knob on the Bass Station 2 but oh well. One thing for those taking delivery of this little beast ....watch out for your Input levels when auditioning Presets... the levels are all over the place and my ADAM A7x's are feeling some pain right now.
