🎹 Modern Synth Meets Vintage Sound | The 3rd Wave

---

A Deep Dive into Analog Warmth and Digital Precision

The 3rd Wave delivers the best of both worlds – classic analog filters paired with cutting-edge digital oscillators. It’s a 24-voice, 4-part multitimbral synth capable of subtractive, FM, and wavetable synthesis, as well as sampling, with four independent stereo outputs. Anthony Marinelli takes us through each section hands-on – from oscillators and filters to modulation, sequencing, and wavetable creation – showing just how versatile and musical this instrument truly is.

A Legacy Reimagined

Inspired by Wolfgang Palm’s iconic PPG Wave of the 1980s, the 3rd Wave continues its legacy with a modern twist. It expands the original wavetable concept with today’s high-resolution sound engine, user-created wavetables, and real analog filters, breathing new life into the digital classics that shaped electronic music history.

Classic Legacy, Modern Power

The 3rd Wave takes vintage character to new heights. Under the hood lies a Dave Rossum-designed 2140 analog low-pass filter with variable saturation, complemented by a SEM-style state-variable filter (low-pass, high-pass, notch, and band-pass). Run both filters in series for harmonically rich textures and unmatched tone-sculpting potential.

Four Synths in One

With 24 voices and 4-part multitimbrality, the Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave is like having four synths in one. Each part can have its own sound, sequence, and dual effect – complete with independent stereo panning, volume control, and dedicated outputs. Whether layering lush pads or creating complex performance splits, it’s a sound designer’s dream.

Unmatched Modulation Flexibility

The modulation matrix is where creativity explodes. With 16 assignable slots, 12 fixed-source paths, 27 modulation sources, and 114 destinations, the 3rd Wave offers modular-level flexibility in a streamlined format. And with per-part independence, each sound layer becomes its own evolving ecosystem.

Built-In Wavemaker: Create Your Own Sound

The onboard Wavemaker tool lets you generate custom wavetables at the press of a button. Connect an audio source to the input and instantly transform it into a wavetable – or import samples via USB. You can even import Serum™ wavetables, giving you limitless sonic possibilities.

Advanced Sequencing and Performance Power

For composers and performers alike, the pattern-based sequencer is an inspiring tool. It can sequence notes, songs, and parameter changes with up to 32 measures per sequence. Capture grooves in real time, add swing, or chain sequences together – perfect for live performance and intricate studio arrangements.
