over the desired value and use the scroll wheel to
change it. If you hold down the [SHIFT] key you can
also increase the resolution.
• You can increase the resolution of a dial, value selector
or wheel by holding down the [Shift] key on your
computer keyboard when you use the respective
control. If a dial is set to “circle mode” (you change a
value by dragging around the dial in a circle), then you
can temporarily change to “up/down mode” by holding
down [ALT].
• Doubleclick on a value to open a text input field for
direct parameter input via your computer keyboard.
Control Elements
The PPG Wave 3.V user interface panel corresponds to
that of the original PPG Wave 2.3. But why are not all
parameters displayed in the form of faders, although this
would easily be possible within such a digital
environment? As matter of fact the character of a synth is
not only rooted in its sound but also in its access methods.
That is why the analog user interface panel of the PPG
Wave 3.V displays all parameters as dials, same as it was
the case with the original. All digital parameters can be
viewed and edited on a 'LCD' display.
Using PPG Wave 3.V’s controls is simple. There are some
different types of control elements:
Dials
To set a value, click on the dial, hold down
the mouse button and drag around the dial in
a circle (Control Mode setting: Circular) or
move the mouse up and down (Control
Mode setting: Linear). The Control Mode
setting can be found within the Global panel.
Parameter Values
These allow to
set a parameter
value. Click and
hold the mouse button on the value and drag the mouse
up or down. Pressing [SHIFT] while holding the mouse
button allows finer adjustment. You can also doubleclick
on any value to enter it via your computer keyboard.
Pop-up Menu
Click on the corresponding
parameter to open a pop-up
menu where you can choose the desired parameter.
