Waldorf Protein

With handy dimensions of 252 × 170 × 48 mm (including controls) and a weight of 0.9 kg, the Protein is a true powerhouse packed into a compact and portable new form factor that stands as the first statement of a new upcoming product line.

Dive into wavetables that evolve like living matter. Control their movement and texture with envelope and velocity modulation. Each waveform shifts and transforms – vivid, expressive, and endlessly alive.
Sculpt your tone with Cutoff Track, Resonance, Dirt, and flexible Envelope Amount. From crystal clarity to raw, earthy grit – Protein resonates at every sonic layer.
The 8 voices can be organized in up to 4 layers allowing for complex sonic layered arrangements, surprising round robin modes, or simply split by MIDI channels for poly timbral operation. With the Load Layer feature new sonic arrangements can be created in seconds by simply re-combining existing layers from the whole preset collection.
From subtle shine to cinematic space: reverb, delay, modulation, and more. Every detail can be shaped with precision. Amount defines intensity, Type defines character.
Protein comes with over 150 factory presets of huge variety and is capable to store up to 250 presets. With the 4 layer concept you can mix and match from the existing library and create new combinations with the easy to use „Load Layer“ feature. Build rich and surprising sonic complexity from simple parts within seconds.
