I found you through your Argon 8 videos. This is certainly a colossally deep and powerful device but a lot of learning too. I love the idea of getting deep into this but the pricetag is pretty high and I'm under using the Argon8.
I had no idea the Nave app can export to the Iridium, that is very cool! I have an Iridium and I’m on the fence about spending $20 on the Nave app, especially since it is quite old and doesn’t seem to have active development by Waldorf. I like the idea of tweaking patches on the iPad and then loading them into the Iridium. Are there any limitations with this you are aware of? Does Nave support all the features of the Iridium like Kernels mode?
Nave is a very cool app for wavetable synthesis. but it's missing many things the Iridium has. It's closer to think of it as just the wavetable oscillators of the Iridium. My quick estimate is that Nave is about 1/10th of what the Iridium can do (and that's being generous to Nave :) ).
I would consider Nave to be closer to the Blofeld. Lacking a 2nd filter and some mod slots, but pretty close. Nicer FX as well. And none of this is bad, Blofeld is a really capable synth still in 2022. Having just got an Iridium, and having Nave, I’m well chuffed I can sound design on the move and import to the Iridium. I’ve dedicated a very old iPad to Nave, left in ‘state’ on an iOS level it will always work on.
Thanks! Yes - using kernels you can get 6 wavetables per oscillator. If you use all 3 oscillators that's 18 wavetables in unison per voice! I've added a link to download the template patch to the video description.

Very cool!!
What an awesome synth. Great vid!!
Brilliant video - subbed
Wonderful sounds.
Great thank you so much!
Cool stuff indeed!

Tremendous. Thanks!
How many user wavetables can it hold?
Valuable material! Subd.
Thank you for the lesson, very nice! I was just wondering how to "unison" and de-tune wave tables. Mind sharing your patch perhaps?

@@ginoco thank you for the insights and the file, sir! Cheers.
Thanks!!
This is the problem with the Iridium…not enough features 😉
Cool, but does anybody make anything besides ambient on this thing?
It’s certainly not limited to ambient. I use it for basses and arps as well in edm. It can play a lot of roles.
