Largo 2: Wavetable and Virtual Analog Synth by Waldorf

Each voice combines two wavetable oscillators with a virtual analog waveform oscillator, a noise generator, FM, hard sync and ring modulation. Two digital multimode filters offer 12 and 24 dB low-pass, band-pass, high-pass and notch responses, alongside comb and formant filter types. The three-formant filter mimics the frequency response of the human vocal tract, and moving the cutoff morphs between the vowels a, e, i, o and u.

Modulation runs through four envelopes with five trigger modes, three LFOs (one with a 16-step editor) and a 16-slot modulation matrix. Identical sources and destinations can be used multiple times, and mathematical operations such as min, max and XOR combine sources for complex movement.

The arpeggiator has 16 steps, and you can build custom patterns. Each layer has two effect slots offering reverb, delay, chorus, phaser, flanger and drive, plus an EQ and bass boost. The chorus includes four- and six-stage modes for lush pads and strings.

Largo 2 supports up to 256-voice polyphony across four individual parts, with mono, legato and unison modes. Up to four layers per sound and four stereo outputs are available. The integrated file browser and program manager let you drag, drop, copy and reorganize sounds across banks.
