Komplexer offers both virtual analog synthesis and wavetable synthesis, with eight onboard macro controllers.
Featuring classic synth sound powered by three oscillators, two multimode filters, four ADSDSR envelopes and three LFOs, Komplexer also has the ability to import Waldorf microQ sounds. Courtesy of the macro controllers, presets can be modified to suit every taste using just eight parameters. This VST instrument also affords users unrestricted access to all of the sophisticated synthesis engine's 400 parameters. Features such as the advanced arpeggiator and LFO 3's synchronizable user-specific waveform serve to create soundscapes that adapt automatically to the given song tempo. In the 16x16 modulation matrix almost every parameter of the Komplexer can be accessed.

The successor of this great synth is Waldorf's Largo.

People should be aware this was made after Walforf XT (1998) and Waldorf Q (1999) which were both 100% software, and also coded by Stefan Stenzel. Although Komplexer is the acknowledged predecessor to Largo, there are some things to know. Largo cannot import wavetables nor MicroQ patches. Komplexer can. Largo has modeled oscillators (vs. wave playback). It is plainly stated that Waldorf Q modeled the Pulse's hardware oscillators. Also, a brilliance setting of 63 (half) in Largo will give a Q signature. There are many ways to make Largo shrill, metallic, and brash. Like anything else, the price you pay for having more options is more responsibility. Don't let it "play you". Largo get's a bad rap I think sometimes, because people just call up presets.
