Designed for creating string ensembles, layered pads and evolving sound textures, Crema offers an inspiring combination of classic character, modern versatility and hands-on control. As the latest addition to Waldorf's compact product line alongside Protein, Crema brings vintage string machine warmth and contemporary sound design together in a portable, performance ready instrument.
Two Engines / One Smooth Sound
Texture. Set the mood.
Strings, wavetables and FM in one expressive engine. Explore 24 sound types, from the unmistakable warmth of Streichfett strings to Waldorf wavetables and rich FM tones. Morph between sounds, shape their movement and let the classic Streichfett Ensemble go through them.
Lines. Add character.
An eight voice polyphonic virtual-analog engine with two detunable oscillators, Pulse or Saw waveforms, and modulation options including stereo tremolo, vibrato and PWM. Punchy basses or expressive synth leads. Lines adds contrast, definition and character to your sound.
Let It Blend
Two effects processors with flexible serial and parallel routing combine chorus, flanger, phaser, tremolo, drive, delay and reverb with a dedicated Shimmer reverb, opening the door to everything from subtle pads to vast, evolving soundscapes.
Organic Flavour
A little imperfection makes a beautiful difference. Turn the Flavour knob to introduce subtle variations in pitch and wave position. Add movement, warmth and organic character to your sound, all with a single turn.
Ready To Play
Crema includes over 130 factory sounds created by sound designers including Christian Kleine, LimbicBits, and others.
With 360 preset slots and the Chutney Librarian application, sounds can be easily stored, organised and transferred between Crema and a computer.
