Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave Desktop Module
Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave Desktop Module is a tabletop wavetable synthesizer with 24-voice polyphony, 4-part multitimbrality, 3 oscillators per voice, built-in wavetable creation function, analog filter with variable saturation 2140, SEM-style variable-state filter, modulation matrix, sequencer, arpeggiator, 4 ADSR envelopes, 4 LFOs, and 2 effects blocks.
The powerful wavetable synthesizer 3rd Wave Desktop Module can sound like four independent synthesizers thanks to its 24-voice polyphony and 4-voice multitimbrality - each with a completely different sound, sequence, and dual effect. Each of the three oscillators per voice can be either a classic wavetable or a high-resolution wavetable, as well as an analog wave.
Create up to 64 custom wavetables with the built-in Wavemaker. Transform samples into wavetables by connecting a sound source to the audio input, create a wavetable with the press of a button.
The 3rd Wave Desktop Module is rooted in classic digital wavetable synthesizers of the past and brings this concept into modern lush sound, a product of expanded wavetables and analog filters. It boasts not only a powerful analog low-pass filter with variable low-frequency saturation 2140, but also a variable-state filter in SEM style (low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, notch).
The modulation matrix offers the flexibility of a modular and has 16 assignable slots, 12 additional slots with fixed sources, 27 sources, and 114 destinations. Each of the 4 independent parts has its own modulation matrix.
The inspiring sequencer of the 3rd Wave Desktop Module is pattern-based and can build sequences of notes, songs, and parameter changes. Input notes and chords in real-time with or without quantization and arrange up to 24 patterns up to 32 steps long into songs.
