Drawing from the vibrant musical traditions of distant cultures, "Around the World" is a captivating collection of 50 exclusive presets that infuse the mighty Waldorf’s synthesizer with rich ethnic flavors, exotic presets, and world-inspired atmospheres. In our fast-paced Western world — polished, precise, and often predictable — life can sometimes feel like a dish without enough seasoning. We crave something deeper, more soulful, more alive: the exotic spices of the East to awaken the senses, stir the spirit, and add layers of flavor that make every moment richer and more meaningful.
In this soundset, each preset is carefully crafted to ensure complete playability and expressiveness. You'll find here deeply evolving pads layered with field recordings, tasty ethnic instruments with a high degree of sensitivity to key pressure and modulation, mystical flutes and frozen strings, soft and warm organic pianos, rhythmic percussive sequences, vibrating bells, and hybrid soundscapes that blend ancient traditions with futuristic synthesis.
Most presets respond expressively to velocity, modulation wheel, aftertouch, and expression — turning your performance into a true global storytelling experience. Perfect for film scoring, world music production, downtempo, ambient, chillout, ethnic electronica, meditative soundscapes, and any genre that craves authentic cultural color and emotional depth. Created with passion for both heritage sounds and cutting-edge Waldorf technology, "Around the World" doesn't just sample the globe — it reimagines it through the prism of tomorrow's sound design!

![Aelita Synthesizer (1980s) - Toxic Magma
#aelita #synthesizer #demo #sounds
Sometimes referred to as the Murom Aelita, the Aelita is a monophonic analog synthesizer manufactured in the Soviet Union in the 1980s.
Although its design seems inspired from American and Japanese synthesizers of the previous decade, with a dark aluminum body[3] and near vertical control panel, the Aelitas looks are distinctive in the details.
They feature large colored plastic sliders instead of the more common rotary dials, and round or rounded push-buttons instead of flip or rotary switches. The vertical sliders are oriented so that their maximum labelled value is at the bottom, instead of the top as is more common. A sole red LED lights up when the instrument is on.
Its hinge-mounted upper control panel can be shut like a piano keyboards lid, thus protecting the buttons and sliders and preventing accidental settings changes during transportation, and changing the general shape of the instrument to one that is not playable but more transportable.
The keyboard is 3.5 octaves wide and made of 44 unweighted, full-sized plastic keys ranging from F to C.
All controls are labelled in Russian, using Cyrillic script.
The Aelita has 3 oscillators, each with 3 fixed waveshapes (Saw, Pulse and Square), plus a 4th oscillator only active in unison mode, amplitude cross-modulation, a low-pass filter with resonance, one LFO and two envelope generators, all arranged in a fixed architecture typical of subtractive synthesis. It has a maximum range of 7.5 octaves.
It is monophonic, meaning that it can play only one note at a time (although detuning of each oscillator makes it possible to play fixed intervals or chords instead of notes)
It has two special modes: the unison mode creates an unison-like effect on each oscillator (reducing the range as a tradeoff), and the strings mode creates a vibrato-like effect independent of the LFO.
Although of a sturdier construction, it lacks several features commonly found on American and Japanese brand synthesizers at the time, such as: velocity response, portamento, pitch and modulation wheels or levers, settings memory, and (from late 1982 on) MIDI implementation.
Its output is monaural.
Sonic character
Its sonic qualities have been consistently qualified as fat. Other reviewers also call them impressive,and sometimes aggressive.There is audible background noise at the output, resembling oscillator bleed.
