PPG Wave 3.V User´s Manual

Low Cut

41.18...22050 Hz

Determines the frequency where the lower frequency
parts are divided from the effect signal. A natural delay
doesn´t produce all frequencies equally, so the highpass
cuts the lower frequencies to produce a more realistic
delay effect.

High Cut

41.18...22050 Hz

Determines the frequency where the higher frequency
parts are divided from the effect signal. This parameter
works in the same way as the lowpass filter in the PPG
Wave 3.V´s sound synthesis. A natural delay doesn´t
produce all frequencies equally, so the lowpass cuts the
higher frequencies to produce a more realistic delay
effect.

Low Damp

41.18...22050 Hz

High pass filter in the feedback loop of the delay.
Determines how fast the delay dampens the lower
frequencies. This phenomenon makes a natural echo
sound somewhat hollow. Higher values of the Damping
parameter mean that more low frequencies will be
dampened.

High Damp

41.18...22050 Hz

Low pass filter in the feedback loop of the delay.
Determines how fast the delay dampens the higher
frequencies. This phenomenon makes a natural echo
sound somewhat hollow. Higher values of the Damping
parameter mean that more high frequencies will be
dampened.

REVERB

The Reverb effect is probably the most widely used effect
in music production. It is used to add a realistic ambience
to clean and dry audio recorded in a studio. Very
complicated mathematical algorithms are needed to
simulate the complexity of a natural reverb. As a result,
good reverb processors are very expensive. The PPG
Wave 3.V’s reverb effects don’t intend to simulate the
perfect natural room, rather they are an addition to the
sound synthesis to make it more 3 dimensional and
expressive.

Shape

0...100

Controls the timing proportion of the early reflections to
the dimensions of the late reverb. Medium settings
roughly result in matching dimensions of the early
