PPG WAVE MODE 2.2 / 2.3 / 2.V
Sets the quality for wavetable and sample playback.
•
2.2 means, that the playback quality is similar to the
original PPG Wave 2.2. Samples will be played back
with a quality of 8 bit and no further interpolation.
This results in a characteristic aliasing and bristliness
of the sound.
• 2.3 means, that the playback quality is similar to the
original PPG Wave 2.3. Samples will be played back
with a quality of 12 bit and no further interpolation,
This gives you less aliasing but enough bristliness.
• 2.V means, that the playback quality is similar to the
PPG Wave 2.V plug-in. Samples will be played back
with the original quality up to 32 bit and with
interpolation. Use this setting when you don´t wish
any sound quality loss.

To hear the different playback quality, the TRUE
PPG
parameter must be activated, otherwise the
playback quality is automatically set to high quality.
ARP ACTIVE ON / OFF
An Arpeggiator splits an incoming chord into single notes
and repeats these dynamically. Different pattern presets
can be used.
The PPG Wave 3.V Arpeggiator has a very simple
structure and serves as a source for sound sequence ideas
and as a fun generator.
If you set Arp Active to On, the Arpeggiator is switched
on. Play a chord on your MIDI keyboard to hear the
effect.
ARP MODE Up, Down, Alt, Rnd, Moving
This parameter is used to determine the succession of
created notes depending on their pitch.
• If this is set to UP, the Arpeggio starts with the
lowest note and then plays upwards to the highest
note. Then it starts over again with the lowest note.
• If this is set to DOWN, the Arpeggio starts with the
highest note and then plays downwards to the
lowest note. Then it starts over again with the
highest note.
