signal. At maximum setting, the pure effect signal will be

heard.

EQUALIZER

The PPG Wave 3.V offers a parametric equalizer to adjust

the sound frequencies to your needs. The equalizer

contains four similar structured bands with the following

parameters. Low and High band offers shelving

characteristic, both mid bands offer bell characteristic:

• Gain raises or lowers the volume of the selected

frequency.

• Freq (Frequency) sets the frequency at which the

tones will be affected.

• Q widens or shortens the frequency range of the

current band. Low and High band offer additional

shelving characteristics with overshots and

undershots.

OVERDRIVE

The Overdrive effect distorts the input signal by

amplifying it drastically and clipping the resulting signal

to a certain output level. The difference between this

Overdrive effect and the Drive parameter of the Filter

section is that Drive affects one single voice, while this

effect type distorts the summed output of the whole

instrument. Therefore, the resulting effect is different as

soon as you play more than one note and you should

consider which is best suited to a particular sound

program. The Overdrive effect, for example, works great

on Organ or E-Piano sounds.

Type Diverse

Determines the character of the drive. The following drive

curves are available:

• Light produces a symmetric light distortion.

• Medium produces a symmetric intermediate

distortion.

• Hard cuts the signal at a certain level.

• Clip generates a typical digital clipping.

• Tube simulates the asymmetric distortion of a tube

circuit.
