Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about Waldorf Kyra. Is this high-end synth and VA synthesis flagship even a real Waldorf? Is it a wavetable synthesizer? What's an Exodus Valkyrie? Who's Manuel Caballero, what's so great about FPGA technology and do we really need another digital synth in a world full of software instruments and plugins?
Thanks to Klangfarbe for letting lending me one of their floor models:

My bro when you release your synth baby I will preorder without even consulting my s/o if the price point is 600💶 or less, and we are starve saving for international travel this year.
… if it’s more than that I’ll probably be a solid month 2 customer.
What's the movie clip at the beginning?
@@june_yah @Dose and Tamp It's the German series Dark
I think you're going to have to develop the "BoxTicker 2077" for real now....
can i buy the midtempo trance song by subbing patreon or can i find the full version on bandcamp?
I built, with help from Waldorf, the first editor for the Kyra (Edisyn again). Some info: the Kyra is a VA. It is NOT a wavetable synth, despite unfortunate terminology in the manual. Many have pled to add wavetables, but I don't think it's going to happen given the FPGA architecture. I think the #1 issue is the lack of a jog dial for those waves and other large selection ranges. #2 is certainly menu diving. While the multimode UI can be confusing, multimode is *identical* to nearly every multitimbral synth in history: that is, multimode patches contain references to single patch slots but do not contain the single patches themselves. It's a great sounding and extraordinarily powerful synth. Sizewise: it's the same as the Iridium and M. Waldorf were, and remain, awesome to work with.
EDIT: for those of you arguing that you can do wavetables in an FPGA, *of course you can.* The problem is that coding for an FPGA is not like coding for a DSP or CPU: retooling the Kyra's FPGA code for wavetables would be a nontrivial undertaking at this point, and I'm pretty certain this is not in the cards.
Thanks for the info!!!
I own a Kyra and will check out your editor, thank you!
Let's see, $2,099.99 at Sweetwater. €1599 at Thomann's. Not bad. At least we know where the real hipster lives.
If you can program the fpga, you can make it into an wavetable synth
PS Access Virus TI2 Desktop, $1999 at Sweetwater, €1699 at Thomann's. Stop kidding people.

No, no. _This_ is the best Bad Gear ever. God damn you did a great job of illustrating the amazing sounds of Kyra. Great job! Also please forgive my plugging (for the thousandth time) the Kyra Controller Max4Live plugin I built - makes working with Kyra a lot easier for Ableton+Kyra users and does away with those goddamn +/- buttons for everything other than setting up Multis. :) I don't know how you keep getting better, Florian, but please never stop.
Thanks, Matt!!!
Your plug is very welcome, because I was hoping someone would make a M4L solution
Wow, never realized the Kyra sounds this good! This is on my wishlist now!
Nice, certainly great for future synthwave
Hey Timecop 1983! Big fan!

Thanks for the reply, I find the Waldorf salad of synths and the dressings of lush sounds that Waldorf gear provides incredibly inspirational. The synth universe is ever expanding ( I doubt that you will ever run out of material, both great and mediocre.) and let’s hope it continues to provide the occasional big bang with sprinkles of stardust. Again, kind regards from Mick down under.

Absolutely.
@AudioPilz , what's the source of the animated sequence in the Finale (Cinematic Trance), between 09:02-09:29?
Always admired Waldorf's medical-tech aesthetic. Never managed to get much in the way of true-grit out of them, but the anti-septic purity of units like this are a genuine joy to experience.
Really like the looks too
Another great episode! Can't wait to see what the boxticker 2077 looks like! No seriously though, imagine if you designed the ultimate synth and then worked with people to really build it. Considering your experience- it would be uniquely awesome and would definitely tick all the boxes.
Thank you!!! Let's see if there are any manufacturers crazy enough for that;)
@@AudioPilz YES! Start a Kickstarter?!!
WoW that mid tempo Trance thing was really great ! Great to watch your video as always !
Thanks!!!
That is a beautiful synth. I do love the "German White" look of Axel Hartmann's designs. I could certainly make it work in my productions. And I am happy to see the salsa I discovered made it into your production. Have a great weekend, Florian!

Thank you!!!
🤣 "REAL simulated woodgrain sides" that one made me crack a rib

The strangest thing about watching Audiopilz regularly is that I have this perversely positive association with "WARNING: THIS VIDEO CONTAINS FLASHING IMAGES." It just feels wrong to get excited about that.
Thanks! Better safe than sorry;)

@@Yuzuki1337 A right of Passage!
It's not wrong. I find it quite arousing too. 😀
Nice one! I was one of the people that opted for a Hydrasynth instead simply because the Hydrasynth has a value dial and is 19 inch rack-mountable out of the box. You did a great job showing off the Kyra in this one though!
Thank you!!!
Amazing, as per usual!
Thank you!!!
I bought an Alesis Micron because of the episode on it... this episode is making me want to buy this piece of Bad Gear... Maybe I should be more careful with watching your videos :D Great episode as always
Thanky you!!
It might be too similar to what you've showcased for us today, but I'd love to see you cover the Access Virus TI Snow! It's like a Virus, but scaled back... what fun is that?!
Also, I've been eying one and can't decide if I want to buy it.
Anways.... Great episode as always!
Thanks!!! Great suggestion!
I’d love to see the access virus too. I’ve been on the fence for that synth for like 15 years…
@@teamphil AudioPilz said he'll create a video when he can fill an entire screen with complaints about that device. I don't think he'll be able to do that with the Virus A/B/C. TI maybe but that'll be the same complaint over and over again: TI not working as advertised on modern Macs - so I don't think that'll count either.
@A Dev yeah but, I specifically mentioned the Snow... There's gotta be complaints about the snow
Ok but seriously this is GOOD gear! I want one now. Anyway thanks for another great one. My weekend can finally start now!
Thanks for watching!!!

Great episode - makes me wanna have one - also gets me thinking of getting an old XT....btw I always put reverb on my sub bass! It’s like, reverb? Yes, please! Keep it up and happy new year!
Thank you!!!
I was super excited when I saw the Valkyrie prototype. It's the technical pinnacle of VA capabilities IMO.
It deserves way more love. It felt like Waldorf took it, released it, then immediately pivoted to other products.
Yeah, looks like early product abandonment indeed
It has great sounding oscillators and filters. Programming using an editor gets you more mileage out of it
I think the issue is FPGA programming is complex (more like circuit design - so boil your heads, "VST in a box" imbeciles).. and the designer himself was not part of what was signed over. So there's nobody there to work on the firmware. It's a great shame really as being all FPGA based it's one of the synths out there that perhaps has the most potential to evolve via updates
@@Wagoo agree. Super 6 is fgpa and it sounds so lush. I know there’s an analog filter but still the oscillators sound analog
@@LocaliLLocano Super 6 and Peak/Summit are both proof the hybrid approach works extremely well.
Man, those tones are juicy. Almost as nice as my Super 6 ;) which does have FPGA oscillators, but analogue filters. There’s a very similar “custom wave but not wavetable” system there too.
The 128 voices and multitimbrality are definitely ahead of mine though! I suppose that’s the power of a fully-FPGA virtual analogue path.
Anyway yes, as I said at the start, very juicy indeed. Definitely sounds crisp, but that could easily be changed with a saturation plugin. I wonder if some slight drift between the voices can be programmed in, which would also help alleviate some of that coldness when people want to avoid that.
Mmmmmh, juicy;)
What about that groove box ? hehe !!!
Exellent review as usual , straight to the point , and craziest thing is that you make some great tracks with gear that you don't connect with that much lol couldn't be that thing we call "talent" ? omg !!!
I§ actually think of grabbing one .... the filter is just a piece of art ,and now that we have editors around this might help for the absence of knobs and those menu diving ....
the music demos always is so good, that's a placer to watch.
Thank you so much!
As you said, its a very cool and sexy looking synth, but should i ever be in the market for a top shelf Waldorf, it would not be the Kyra. I’d choose the Iridium probably.
Nice Jams as always!
Thanks!!! Yeah, there's quite some in-house competition
I like the sound of the Kyra. It's instant Frozen Authumn! It's got their sonic texture.
Nice analogy
But The Frozen Autumn use a PPG Wave and an Elka Synthex, if I remember well ? It's true that they have a ton of synths and I have seen them with a Waldorf Blofeld on one photo...
Absolutely fantastic sound😮
👍
Awesome track with the Elektron. Would be so cool for an album’s worth of this kind of music.
Thanks! Full tracks can be found on Patreon (shameless plug;)
As a analog vintage synth connoisseur I have to say I love my Blofeld! Woldorf just has a particular nice sound, as demonstrated here.
Big Waldorf fan here!
One day I would like to see you do a reading in your inimitable style and delivery from the books on your shelf, a page of Kafka, Shakespeare, or Cosmopolis, with some background synth accompaniment of course, but no meme flashes, just a fixed camera shot, that would be cool
Great suggestion! Thanks!!!

Ah, Kyra, one of my favs! Has a great origin story, and that zero aliasing makes it sweet and clean sounding. Great job showing off some sonic capabilities 😁
Thank you!!!
great pick using that Heinz Edelmann animation at the end. for the unaware: he was the art director for the Yellow Submarine movie.
Thanks!!! To my surprise he didn't do that much animation work. I just found this and YS
This sounds beautiful.
I love Waldorf Synths.
Big Waldorf fan here too!
So this is where Waldorf's own Kaiju universe starts, eh? As with Iridium I'm too shy to approach it, also fearing it will bite my arms off
DANGER ZONE!!!
No one in the comment section seems to address what an FPGA is. FPGA stand for Field Programmable Gate Arrays. The simplest definition I can think of is if youre programming in C you define what a synth can do. if you program an FPGA its more like defining what the hardware can do. Youre defining logic gates and emulating hardware with software. FPGAs can be used for a variety of applications because youre actually defining the structure of the hardware inside of the chip rather than using software limitations that exist inside of the hardware
Thanks for the heads up!
I thought about this thing. It was like 1400 USD on Thomann. But...the Hydrasynth Deluxe won out because I wanted full size keys, enough of them to relearn some basic piano on. Plus the ribbon and poly aftertouch are just nice to have tightly integrated into a synth. Also the 8 big, rubber sided metal encoders correspond nicely to an obsession that most software synth and sampled instrument makers seem to have with allowng no more than 8 macros. I also appreciate their determination to ship a full print of the manual with the instrument instead of referring me to their website to download anything more than a quick start guide. And the headphone port...it's on the front panel under the pitch and mod wheels. Not on the back or top. I like that. It makes me feel like the synth wants me to unplug from my computer and spend some alone time with it.
Love the Hydra!
Bought out by Waldorf just before Irridium was released, all firmware development was then halted. it was a hit job, plain and simple.
That sounds like a VERY plausible theory
A groovebox from AudioPilz? I'm intrigued!
So am I;)
This sounds amazing. I got the UDO Super 6. Main Points Head to Head, Kyra sounds just as nice, if not nicer in many patches, especially with some of the more exotic waveshapes. Super 6 is set up more like a traditional analog synth and like the kyra can load wavetable shapes with an intuitive but limited OSC mixer. It also has massive stereo field capability. With a much more familiar and user friendly hands-on interface, the main point against the Super 6 compared to the kyra is it's price point at double the price.
UDO is such a great instrument!!!
9:14 I love this moment. Not the sound I expected and it really grabs my attention 😎👍
Thank you!!!
You're truly the greatest Florian Pilz who has ever lived.

At first glance, the Boxticker 2077 is ticking all the boxes.
✅
Sounded amazing. 🔥
😀
I choked on my lunch and am crying from laughing at the 32 bit question at 5:43 🤣
That one had me rofling too!
if you make a groovebox, I will buy it. you probably have more of an idea of what people want from a groovebox or synth than 99% of the people signing off on, and designing the same.
Imo workflow is the most important aspect of a hardware synth, and is also the most nebulous to pin down. Then on top of that no two people want the exact same feature set
The Boxticker 2077 sounds interesting, will it be playable after 2 years of bugfixes and upgrades?
Early product abandonment included;)
Hello. Got one (SE blue edition) what a powerhouse paired with my Hapax ! Great sound !
Happy Friday Florian!
Have a nice weekend!!!

Totally!!!
Just brilliant!
Thank you!!!
that thing sounds amazing!

I love the sound of waldorfs Kyra and M. But from a usability standpoint i think Iridium is the only option for me personally. Also, who could afford all of them...
Only heard good things about the Iridium
It did sound pretty great, I must say. As for any coldness, there are those little things called Airwindows plugins, which can make the most sterile Ultranova patch sound like it was recorded direct to lathe vinyl in the jungles of Bolivia. Plus they are free, so unless you’re DAW-less all the way there is no reason to reject fat but too clean synths like this.
Lathe vinyl in the jungles of Bolivia? I'm in!!!
You had me at Ultranova...
What are your Airwindows recommendations? Thanks!
@@Pictus_Invictus ToTape for analogization and loudness, ADclip for extra loudness before the limiter (I don’t think he’s done a limiter proper, since it’s uncool in these post-loudness war times), all weird effects for weirdness. Many of his plugins beat the shit out of commercial versions, and consumes little to no CPU. His personality holds him back though, and I don’t mean that he is unpleasant or anything, but his line of thinking is often difficult to understand. Partly because he’s smart AF, but also because his condition means he doesn’t exactly start at the right end to make it easy to understand. No matter, Airwindows is awesome all the way.
@@extrudersfx4571 Thank You!
Nice video with some fair criticisms. Despite the minor gripes including lack of data wheel and less-than-optimal wavetable integration, the Kyra's sound quality is excellent and options for design/modulation are extensive. For me, even many of the factory patches are performance oriented and capable of being highly expressive. The build quality feels like late 80's Akai Professional (think MPC60 or S950). Just the right amount of weight and physical presence. No knob wobble, super smooth potentiometers with just the rights amount of resistance. Everything feels solid. It look me a bit to figure out how to get it working within Bitwig but once I did, wow! Soundcard mode is awesome. 8 stereo instances available and seamless integration with the DAW. Full disclosure I bought the Kyra second hand. It was a great deal at $1150.
True that, build quality is similar to the classics!!!
saw the patch name "subscribe!" for the first time. Very funny, congratulations for this little easter egg!
Thank you!!!
I think I saw two "Subscribe" patches this week!
Wow, I consider myself to be a Bad Gear connoisseur, but I've never heard of the Kyra before.
That one is The Great White Shark;)
Whaaaaat?
Tbf this is probably the best gear to be considered Bad Gear so far
Cool, you are right, too clean. I recently got me a korg ms 2000R (rack model) and although I’m happy with it, something is missing. 😉 another good candidate for bad gear. I’ll lend you mine
Thanks! I'm searching for one of these for quite some time now
What highway takes me to from California to Austria the fastest? 🤔 you could totally use mine
I was thinking about getting the modal cobalt 8, but I pulled my novation ks rack out of the closet and it sounds pretty good, and here is a VA synth episode on bad gear to go along with my VA lusts...
I didn't like the cobalt, filter sounded awful. Interesting how you could morph the waves, but it felt like moving through wavetables, so how is it different than the argon?
@@willp3754 I have not tried it. only listened to youtube videos.
Awesome community service. I always wondered about this thing. It seemed Waldorf didn’t show it too much love either…like they got a better return from the Iridium I guess.
Thanks! Yeah, looks like early abandonment...
It's like an Access Virus successor that Access themselves never got around to making! Even the up/down buttons for selecting a ridiculous amount of options remind me of the same setup for selecting a patch on my Virus KB.
Yes, there's a lot of Virus DNA in that thing
No there isn't! ;)
Honestly, I feel like this is the synth that could have been. It can sound good, but is just such a pain. I returned mine after two weeks.
I feel you!
that trance track was fire a f gut gemacht bruder
Vielen Dank!!!
Every time I hear this synth I like the full lush wide sound of it. But in every RUclips video about it there’s heavy critics about the user interface and Waldorf not developing this platform. Reminds me of that other lush synth that I actually have and really enjoy. The Roland D70. Love-hate relationship but very rewarding when you take time to totally reprogram the thing. I would really like you to make a Badgear episode about that one. And now I still don’t know wether to buy a Kyra. Can one handle two love-hate relationships at once? Decisions, decisions. :-)
Great suggestion!!! Thanks!
Ooh a beautiful looking synth using fpgas? I don’t even care what it sounds like, I need to have it! I mean I’m not even good at making music XD

The constant Virus comparisons for the poor Kyra always drove me up the wall. People are really desperate for Access to do something.. anything! 😂
Most of them came from its creator though...
Pro tip: watch the videos at .25x so you can actually read all the memes. Plus it gives you 4 times the bad gear.
Way to go❤️❤️❤️
been watching ambient Microwave XT videos these past few days. It's like you read my mind. I'm a Waldorf fanboy that's poor, so I only have a Blofeld but man, what a beautiful machine this is. Nice vid as usual. On another note, just saw a synth I never saw before on Reverb, the Arturia Origin! Looks like the Kyra a little.
I had the Microwave II in the past (a XT with less knobs) and thought "he could had bought the XT instead of the Blofeld" then checked the prices and found out: they're already 3-4 times higher than on my last price-check about 4 years ago 😮😟
😀
Very cool... looking forward to the Behringer Bad Gear 🤔
@Hit_me_up_Nicegram_AudioPilz - BYE BYE SCAMMER !
Thanks!!! Don't forget to watch the Model D episode!
Sounds better than the Access TI. The bass is deep with this one.
Bass is gorgeous!!!
How dare you.
Didn't dare we did. 🙃 I do think there is something to this sound I would love to see Novation apply these chips in a eurorack module. A full size keyboard with minimal menu diving would be a winner too as mentioned already.
Kyra is a synth I never see myself being interested in and I just can’t explain why. It’s Virus TI2 all the way for me.
I want a TI2 too!!!
I have the Virus TI and my Kyra eats it for breakfast...
No doubt it’s a great synth. Thing is, I’ve used the TI range in anger since 2006. I know it very well and for live use, my TI2 Keyboard sits with my MPC L2 delivering multi Timberlake channels of old school midi brilliance.. the Kyra form factor is just a bit alien to me. Maybe I ought to start nosing around it a bit more.
I like the footage of Dark you used in the intro! What a weird show.
Yeah, legendary show!
