that the Envelope intensity can only use the positive deflection form, same as on the
original PPG Wave.
ENV 2 VCA 0...63
This controls the influence of ADSR Envelope 2 on the sound level. The higher you
set this value, the louder the sound.
ENV 1 WAVES 0...63
This controls ADSR Envelope 1’s impact on the modulation of the oscillator’s Waves.
Try this:
1. Set WAVES-OSC to zero.
2. Set ENV1 WAVES to a value smaller than 60. If you select 60 or higher, you will
get into the area of the four “analog” waveforms, which can lead to rough sound
(which of course can also be attractive).
3. Now set the ADSR Envelope 1 ATTACK to a value between 32 and 40 and
SUSTAIN to zero. Now you can clearly hear the Wave scanning process, i.e.
how the sound travels through the Waves of the Wavetable.
4. Using ENV 1 WAVES and/or WAVES-OSC you can now exactly control the
Wavetable area through which the sound travels in a certain period of time. You
can additionally scan the sub oscillator’s Wavetable with ENV 3, which facilita-
tes interesting sound transformations.
LFO SYNC
Press this button to synchronize the LFO to the tempo of your Song. If
LFO Sync is active, the corresponding LED lights up in red. This does
only work, if your host application is capable to transfer the appropriate
time information to the PPG Wave 2.V.
TRUE PPG
If you activate this function, the PPG Wave 2.V is set into a special mode where it
shows the same peculiarities in behaviour that its original model showed. The LED
lights up in red, if the function is active.

You hear the typical Aliasing noise of the original PPGs, especially when creating
higher notes.
 The LFO oscillates irregularly, LFO Delay set to zero fades in the LFO with each
newly started note.
 Filter tuning varies slightly to simulate the tuning instability of the analog filter
chip.
OUT 3-4
The PPG Wave 2.V has four audio outputs, grouped into two stereo pairs. You can
use this switch to route the selected sound onto the alternative audio output. You
