A quotation by Bierce, Ambrose

IDIOT, n. A member of a large and powerful tribe whose influence in human affairs has always been dominant and controlling. The Idiot’s activity is not confined to any special field of thought or action, but “pervades and regulates the whole.” He has the last word in everything; his decision is unappealable. He sets the fashions of opinion and taste, dictates the limitations of speech and circumscribes conduct with a dead-line.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
“Idiot,” The Cynic’s Word Book (1906)

#Groove #Synthesis 3rd #WAVE vs #PPG Wave 2.2 - #synthlegends

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AivHqTpIIA

Short #Demo of 7 #factory and #custom PPG #sounds reprogrammed on the #GrooveSynthesis 3rd Wave together with my friend #TillKopper. Till is the frist owener in #Germany with a 3rd Wave and he lives only 20 km from my home. So we meet regulary to play synths. We tried out how the 3rd WAVE is capable to adopt the classic #sound of the #PPGwave. I have a 2.2 in my #studio and it was quiet interesting, hard at the same time to recreate some #classic PPG sounds on the 3rd wave. Our impression is, that they can sound very close. The PPG wave has some mistakes in the sound which made it #legendary, so over the whole #keyboard the sounds are different with aliasing in higher octaves an brizzelng in deep registrations. It is very hard to get this effect on the 3rd wave, but we think that the guys from Groove Synthessi did a great job to get the 3rd wave as a succeedor of the old PPG. The demo is without any FX or mastering. The sounds you can #download #free for the 3rd wave here: https://till-kopper.de/3rd_wave/3rd_Wave_PPG_Sounds.zip
