Hello,
In the last weeks I've been working on an editor and librarian for the
Waldorf Blofeld synthesizer, since I wasn't satisfied enough with the
alternatives.
It's still a work in progress (the librarian doesn't allow actual
reordering yet, arpeggiator editor and mod matrix are still missing),
but it already allows sound dumping from the Blofeld and parameter
editing for almost everything. It also features a virtual keyboard to
test sounds directly from the interface.
Here you can see a screenshot for the editor (that can be opened with
a right click on a sound in the librarian window):

I created a set of custom widgets (since the standard ones depend too
much on the system themeing, and they miss some important things I
needed) and this should grant consistency for the interface.
If you are interested in testing it, you can find it here:

It requires PyQt4 and pyalsa, and it's written in Python 2.7.
Any comment is appreciated..
Cheers!
Hi,
That's great! I bought MonstrumFeld and was never able to make it work
correctly. Your Biggleworth works fine here. I am looking forward for
the modulation matrix support! (where the real strength of the Blofeld
resides)
Just a few remarks. The display on top in Patch Editor is a little bit
cropped. I can see only half of the "Status:" line. I am using a 120dpi
display, if it helps. It happens even in full screen at 2560x1440,
which should be enough. Second remark: why PyQt4 and Python 2.7?
Wouldn't PyQt5 and Python 3.x be more future-proof?
But anyway, even at this preliminary stage, it works better than
MonstrumFeld.
