STVC Quickstart
Foreword
Thank you for purchasing the Waldorf STVC.
STVC is a string synthesizer in combination with a vo-
coder. String synthesizers came up in the 1970s, they
aimed to recreate real string ensemble sounds using
tricky electronic circuitry. They failed, at least according
to todays standards, but the wonderful sound they pro-
duced has a lovely character that has been used in many
popular recordings of that era. The STVC is Waldorf’s 2nd
strike (remember the famous Streichfett synthesizer) to
bring back this previously extinct species of string syn-
thesizers.
The vocoder, short for voice coder, has originally been
developed for transmission of voice signals for telecom-
munication. It allows speech transmission with very low
bandwidth and results in a somewhat distorted, but intel-
ligible speech. If applied to musical signals, the resulting
signal sounds more or less like robotic speech or singing,
and it is easy to extend it to polyphony. This is what the
vocoder in STVC is for.
And now have fun with your STVC!
