PPG wave 2.2 Hybrid Synthesizer from the year 1982
The PPG Wave 2.2 is the direct successor of the Wave 2 but with 2 oscillators. One of the greatest synths ever. A real classic!
Only 500 Wave 2.2 were manufactured.
The sound character is different to the later Waldorf Microwave synths and a little bit different to the Wave 2.3. The nice SSM 2044 filter make the sounds so warm and incredible.
- 8 Voices
- 2 to 16 Oscillators per voice
- 30 Wavetables with 64 waves per table
- analog 24 dB/oct lowpass SSM 2044 VCF
- Curtis CEM 3360 VCAs
- micro processor (6809)
- 8Bit DACs
Used by: Trevor Horn (Propaganda, Art Of Noise, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Grace Jones), Ultravox, Depeche Mode, Robert Palmer, Talk Talk, Tears For Fears, Thomas Dolby, The Fixx, Thompson Twins, Tangerine Dream, Gary Numan and much more"
