Waldorf Pulse Editor Intro
Waldorf Pulse Editor & Librarian is designed to control your Waldorf Pulse / Pulse+ right from your DAW. With our Editor, you can work with your Waldorf Pulse by the same way you use your virtual instrument plug-ins. Our Editor will recall your patch settings when you open your project and the data will be sent to your Pulse / Pulse+ automatically once you open your project. Your synthesizer is always synchronized with your session! The only thing you need to worry, is that you power-up your synthesizer. We also added the ability to load in & import Waldorf Pulse 2 patches!
Faster workflow
Waldorf Pulse Editor brings hardware integration to modern Digital Audio Workstation environments. Waldorf Pulse Editor & Librarian plug-in works seamlessly with your Waldorf Pulse / Pulse+ synthesizer.
It is now much faster to scroll thru sounds and make tweaks within your DAW. Automate parameters with real hardware control names. The best part is, our Editor saves all the data within the project and when you reopen the project, all of the used data gets sent to your hardware, automatically! No more waiting with loading or transferring hardware data. Save time – welcome Total Recall.

Realistic Bi-directional Graphical User Interface
Our graphical user interface design has been made to make everything from sound design to patch editing as smooth as possible. When you move a slider, push a button or twist a knob in your hardware, software will respond to it.
Use sections locks with Randomizer function to create complex sounds while keeping the best settings untouched.
Save time, as all the edits are stored within the project, so once the project is opened up again, Total Recall will send the data to hardware automatically.
Patch data management
Waldorf Pulse Editor comes with ability to control all Waldorf Pulse / Pulse+ parameters from the plug-in.
You can send patches from Librarian Browser to your Pulse. Double click a patch on the librarian to send the patch. Simple as that!
Librarian offers more edit options too, so be sure to check out the user manual for further instructions.
Waldorf Pulse Editor and Automation
With FULL version of Waldorf Pulse Editor & Librarian, you can automate almost every parameter right from your DAW without having to remember all of the MIDI CC’s.This can be done easily by setting your DAW automation to Write or Latch mode and then turning the knob from the hardware or the plug-in.
Some of the SysEx parameters are not available due to a lot bandwidth taken from the MIDI cable.

If you leave the port open, our Editor will see it and once you click to use it, it might crash your DAW and you will lose your data. Link down below!
macOS limitations
macOS works “out from the box” with resource sharing, you are good to go once you insert the plugin into your DAW. However, our plugin can cause you a MIDI loop if you leave the port open / unfiltered from your hardware to your DAW. You can set various filters in your DAW.
Requirements:
- Waldorf Pulse / Pulse+ hardware synth (1st generation).

Nice work. I have been looking for something like this for many years. Hoping for Apple Silicon support in the next version.
Hey Jani, I'm very happy with the Waldorf Pulse Editor. It has definitely given a rebirth to my unit and opened up new sound editing simplicity that is fantastic. The GUI is perfectly laid out to access all the parameters easily and really makes programming the Pulse in realtime a joy to use. In conjunction with my midi controllers it really sings. Only 2 small things. 1. The librarian for saving patches is bit confusing I haven't been able to properly save a patch to the librarian so I have been saving my patches directly on the unit in the User bank. 2. When I change patches it spikes my CPU on my M1x Mac Pro. I saw that there will be an update soon this spring so looking forward to it and thanks for a well built editor. Best Tony
Excellent software, makes loading and editing sounds, as well as automating parameters, much easier. It'd be great to be able to use a few of the modules in the same project (e.g. Pulse, Virus C, MicroQ) - should this work? I couldn't get a second one to open up.
Really good Editor thanks
problem solved, it works perfectly
Excellent bit of software that has inspired me to start using my Pulse again. Would like versions for more synths, Mutable Instruments Ambika would be great!
Excellent piece of software which works well on my system. Using it I was able to resurrect my old Waldorf Pulse. All parameters are accessible on screen which meant I could locate my unit at the other side of my studio. It did take me a bit of head scratching to figure out how to to get patches to and from the Pulse such that they are synchronized with the librarian but that was more to do with the Pulse than the software. All in all a good experience using this software. Keep up the good work.
Great plugin that has brought new lease of life to my Waldorf Pulse. The included patch banks are a nice bonus.
This is great. Just the editor I've been looking for.
excellent plugin, but a little bit complicated to install and license the plugin.
With continuous support and development, Waldorf Pulse Editor & Librarian is the best investment for your Waldorf Pulse / Pulse+.

If you own a Waldorf Pulse get this software, if you don’t own a Waldorf Pulse, buy one (they’re awesome) and then get this software – it brings the old fella into the 21st century – top bit of kit.

Everything works great and its brought a new lease of life to my Pulse + .
Only issue is the randomize button crashes in the 64bit version , but the 32 bit version works as expected (im on macos). im sure this issue will be addresed in future update, as i also have the virus hc plug in and thats great and has had frequent updates.
Apart from that small issue, im very pleased with this plug in !
