Nave Wavetable Synth iPad App by Waldorf

Waldorf Nave iPad Synth App

Waldorf releases the Nave wavetable synthesizer application for iPad and iOS devices. The Waldorf brand has been an important point of reference in the hardware and software synth sector for many years. The technology developed by the German company, in particular for the synths of the Q and Blofeld series and for the powerful ‘virtual analog’ filters, has a very high level of innovation and is the basis of many instruments currently on the market.

Waldorf Nave is universally recognized as one of the best synthesizer music apps for the iPad!

Nave is the first Waldorf synthesizer for the iPad. With its vivid user interface, Nave invites you to explore and play the extensive factory set that covers more than 500 exceptional sounds. For those who want to dive deeper into synthesis, Nave offers tremendous potential and serves as a professional tool for sound creation.

The wavetable synthesis, known from numerous Waldorf products, has been extended with many new exciting functions. Besides brand new wavetables that make extensive use of the enhanced possibilities, all factory wavetables from Microwave, Wave and Blofeld are of course included. Two more innovative features are the option to create wavetables, either by the internal speech synthesizer or from analyzing imported audio files. Furthermore, by stretching, rotating, and shifting in the spectral domain, Nave allows wavetables to be refined or distorted.

In addition to the wavetables and a filter featuring the familiar classic Waldorf sound, Nave offers the novel Überwave module that can fatten your sound by utilising up to eight extra virtual analog oscillators.

We are proud that we were able to inspire some highly acclaimed sound designers who, by supplying their personality, know-how and enthusiasm, contributed significantly to the new and exciting sound of Nave.
