3rd Wave vs Behringer Wave // A PPG Style Digital Artefact Comparison

video upload by Starsky Carr

"A look at the digital artefacts generated by the Behringer WAVE and Groove Synthesis 3rd WAVE and how they process the sounds. If I compared everything it would be 95% 3RD WAVE as it does so much more. So here I'm concentrating on the raw tone when using the 3rd Wave in 'PPG Mode' ie all the modern stuff turned off, and keeping it raw.

The Behringer WAVE is designed essentially to emulate the PPG almost exactly. Although it does have a few additions, overall it sticks rigidly to the PPG experience. The 3rd wave is a flexible studio centrepiece with a modern interface and comprehensive set of functions... which is reflected in the price!

I take a look at the wavetables, aliasing, imaging and a brief look at the envelopes."

"3rd Wave PPG Comparison — The third in a series of one-to-one comparisons of the 3rd Wave Advanced Wavetable Synthesizer and PPG 2.3. Note that the 3rd Wave isn’t designed to be an exact replica of the PPG. It’s our idea of where the original concept might have gone had it continued to evolve. And while we feel that it captures the essence of the original and can sound quite close, it is its own synth with its own character.

Programmed, played and recorded by Matia Simovich / INHALT at Infinite Power Studios.

Return of the PPG! 3rd Wave synth at NAMM 2022

"Groove Synthesis describes the 3rd Wave as “what would have happened if PPG never went out of business.” We couldn’t agree more. It can sound just like a vintage PPG (as the A-B comparison at the end of this video proves), sound much more high-res, and do virtual analog synthesis. There’s a wave envelope and a four-part pattern sequencer that plays like a looper. Watch for part 2 for more sound demos and less talking, but this one is a great features overview."
