Its 8-voice polyphonic synthesis engine takes inspiration from the original Waldorf Microwave 1 ASIC oscillator architecture, delivering the animated, sometimes gritty digital character that helped make early Waldorf instruments so distinctive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtein goes well beyond a vintage-inspired wavetable voice. Four-part multimode operation, extensive modulation, sequencing, arpeggiation, chord and scale functions, and onboard effects turn this little instrument into a surprisingly deep sound-design and performance tool. It's equally at home creating evolving pads, glassy digital textures, aggressive basses, unusual rhythmic sounds, and the wonderfully strange timbres for which Waldorf is known.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-voice polyphonic wavetable synthesis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOscillator architecture inspired by the original Waldorf Microwave 1 ASIC design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic 8-bit wavetable character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour sound layers with 4-part multimode operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDigital CEM-style 24 dB low-pass filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree envelopes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo syncable LFOs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-slot modulation matrix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolyphonic aftertouch support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated arpeggiator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep sequencer with patterns up to 32 steps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChord and scale modes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo effects slots with a wide selection of processing options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore than 150 factory presets with storage for up to 250 presets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight desktop format\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFour-Part Waldorf Sound Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProtein's four-layer architecture lets you combine individual sounds into rich, evolving patches and multitimbral setups.

The distinctive digital character of those early oscillators is paired here with modern modulation, sequencing, effects, and performance features. Rather than simply recreating a vintage instrument, Protein uses that heritage as the foundation for a flexible contemporary synth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eB-Stock \/ Open-Box Condition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eB-Stock \/ Open Box:\u003c\/strong\u003e This unit was supplied to us by the authorized U.S. distributor as B-Stock.
