Waldorf Q User’s Manual 38
Multi Mode
The Waldorf Q offers a 16 part Multi mode. As soon as you want to arrange keyboard layers for a live
performance or want to do multi track recordings in a studio, you should start to program your own
Multis that you can use to quickly switch between completely different setups.
Only a Multi combines the various sections of the Q like Sounds, Step Sequencer Patterns, MIDI
In/Out Channel settings, or audio output routings. The following picture shows the structure of a
Multi.

Picture 8: Multi Program architecture
Setting up a Multi requires some administrative work, as it does on all synthesizers, but you
should do it anyway because it eases your work with the Q when you use it live or for
recording.
Selecting an Instrument for editing
Before you can adjust the Instrument Parameters of a particular Instrument, you have to select it. The
Multi mode of the Q offers 16 Instruments that can be played at a time, either by the internal
keyboard (only Q Keyboard) or by MIDI. The 16 Instruments are organized into 4 banks with each 4
Instruments.
To select an Instrument:
1. Press Shift+Inst. 1…4 to select one of the four Instrument banks.
2. Press Inst. 1…4 to select one of the Instruments of the selected bank.
