I use it and absolutely love it. I recommend you grab the SL option from Waldorf's web site so you can load your samples as oscillator sources.

If you are on windows, grab this donation ware VST editor - http://www.softknobs.com/.

Checkout this 411 I wrote - http://www.modulatethis.com/2010/03/wal ... r-411.html.

Here is a category dedicated to Blofeld on my blog - http://www.modulatethis.com/blofeld/

I've started posting free patches here - http://patchlab.modulatethis.com/waldorf-blofeld/

There is a 700 strong member Facebook page here - http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=8492783249.

That ought to get you going :^)

Is it possible to play the Blofeld without a midi controller? Is it just a matter of connecting the stereo out to the input on the soundcard and connecting the the blofeld to the computer via usb? I have midi controller on the way.
