About this listing
The Waldorf STVC is a 49-key string synthesizer and vocoder for players who want a dedicated string-machine keyboard with a serious vocoder path. A gooseneck microphone plugs into the front panel; string, solo, and vocoder sections can work together for pads, leads, and speech-driven textures.
String and solo sections
The string path follows the classic oscillator-bank and octave-divider approach, then a complex mixer, EQ, and ensemble. A single registration control sweeps Violin, Viola, Cello, Brass, Organ, Choir, and related blends. The solo section is a 16-voice synth with continuous Tone morphing and tremolo so it can support or lead the strings.
Vocoder
A 256-band vocoder emphasizes intelligibility, with formant modification, freeze (hold a speech fragment and retrigger it from the keys), and optional jitter on the string carrier. Animate, ensemble/chorus, phaser, and reverb can run at once. Tweak functions act like fixed offsets into hidden parameters for fine control.
