They use a very specific form of sound generation = called "SD Synthesis". Short for "Spectrum Dynamic" SD Synthesis has some t= hings in common with the subtractive synthesis we know and love. The synth = takes a waveform and runs it through a real analog VCF (filter). There are = ADSR envelopes for the DCA and VCF that shape the sound. And there is an LF= O just like on a standard subtractive synth, although this LFO only modulat= es pitch (vibrato) and volume (tremolo). >> >> Where things get interesting however, is in the choice of waveforms avai= lable from the synth engine. There are 32 incredibly varied waveforms, some= sound very nasal or narrow, some like saw or square waveforms, some with a= n odd metallic timbre, and some feature white noise. It's still a mystery e= xactly how these waves are created, but experts suggest they contain a numb= er of harmonically-rich pulse waves at different octaves, as well as a ring= modulator and an analog noise source. >> >> To make things even more interesting, these waves have pre-programmed am= ounts of PWM and amplitude modulation built into them. For example, one SD = wave could contain two pulse waves fading in and out at different times. Bu= t you don't have to understand all of this to get the best out of the synth= . The mystery and modulation of it all means you can just pick a preset and= change the waves around and see what happens. The synth sounds are in the = same ballpark as other DCO-synths of the time, and can even sound a little = PPG-like on a good day. The filter is a bit weak for bass but adds a nice s= woosh to some sounds. There is also a nice chorus effect on board. Addition= ally, being a home keyboard, it has built-in speakers, a Drum Machine and a= n Auto-Accompaniment mode (the lower tone is used for accompaniment). The d= rum sounds resemble the Casio RZ-1 8-bit drum machine. >> >> The low point of the synth is in the programming. You have one big clunk= y rotary dial and a list of two digit parameters to edit (e.g.: 10 will be = cutoff, 11 is resonance) and these parameters are not listed on the panel, = so you need the manual with you at all times! MIDI is present, but limited = to just 3-channels and has no SysEx support. Kind of a bummer from a synth = with such a tedious programming interface. >> >> Peavey PC-1600 #2 - $70 >> Sysex / CC editor with 1600 firmware. Needs new battery.

That is, it cannot be updated to v1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 or anythi= ng later. This also means you can only use the stock E350 wavetables. >> >> This is not quite Eurorack size, but somewhat designed for a 5U system w= ith a lot of headroom.

The minor repairs aside, it will never m= ake sound with what I have here. A PPG 2.3 processor board is required to m= ake the voice cards work with this configuration. Alternately, you could lo= ok for PPG 2.2 voice cards and a motherboard. Unfortunately the market for = PPG synths is very dry in New York, there are far more users, techs, and pa= rts available in Germany in Austria. Interested parties, I recommend you co= nsult with Alexander of Virtual Music in Vienna, Austria about sourcing ano= ther 2.3 processor board to make this configuration work. >> >> The PPG has the latest Virtual Music 8.3 ROMs. I am including a second s= et of ROMs as well. >> >> I would refer to this below from Alexander from Virtual Music https://ww= w.virtual-music.at/en/ppg-zone/#1 >> >> When this was shipped, the cards were not removed and wrapped so the dam= ages are listed below. >> =E2=80=A2 2-3 broken mylar caps [the leads are hairline thin and very fr= agile] >> =E2=80=A2 1 broken 27.460mhz Crystal >> =E2=80=A2 LCD cable pins are bent / broken and some will need replacemen= t. >> >> from Peter Forrest / Vemia >> "Details from the original listing[s]:We don=E2=80=99t know much about t= his. What we do know is it doesn=E2=80=99t work. It would appear that someo= ne took a PPG Wave 2.3, removed the PCB=E2=80=99s, display, knobs and power= supply and re-mounted them in a rack-style case. The front panel has a ver= y professional looking blue and white transfer so whoever did this was quit= e serious about it. It also comes with the Wave=E2=80=99s original Mod Whee= l assembly which can be connected to the internal motherboard. We tested it= and this is what we found: It appears to boot up and display what looks li= ke sensible information on the LCD (see photo). It accepts commands from th= e front panel, such as program or Midi channel changes, or for example pres= sing the Analog button brings up the current front panel knob-settings in t= he display and these can be altered in real time. It also appears to have v= alid data in memory judging by the parameters when the program number is ch= anged. It can also be switched to emulate PPG Wave 2.2 mode. So far, so goo= d. Now the bad news: plugging in a Midi keyboard produces no output, so eit= her the Midi circuitry or the sound-generating section has a problem. Witho= ut having another Wave to test it with against, that=E2=80=99s as much as w= e know. Ideally this would suit a PPG enthusiast who has a working Wave 2.3= and can diagnose this one using an external Wave keyboard and card substit= ution. >> >> Here=E2=80=99s an interesting one. Possibly the world's only rackmount W= ave 2.3.

I've recently had synth tech Kent Spong = take a look at it, his professional opinion is.... 'It's not an impossible = job but it will take an expert in PPG's.' For the record the case isn't 19 = inch rack size, being slightly wider at 19.5 inches wide, either way it's d= efinitely more compact than the standard Wave.
