Groove Synthesis have released 3rd Wave – their hybrid wavetable synthesizer inspired by the legendary PPG Wave, and featuring digital oscillators with classic analog-style waveforms and flexible wavetables paired with analog filters. synth4ever posted this demo video a few days ago that nicely shows off some of its sounds, patches & presets.

I thought it was a good idea to have a group where we can all share general synth industry news. I’ll post here anything I think you’ll find interesting, but please feel free to also share news, links, and videos here if it doesn’t fit well within the other groups 🙂

Good Idea! I usually just find out about stuff if it appears in my YouTube feed but sometimes I discover the firmware for my synth was updated 6 months back and I had no idea! I guess I could be a bit more on the ball, subscribe to newsletter etc.

I picked up a second hand Digitakt at the weekend to pair with my Syntakt. Can’t wait to try out this Combo! Only thing is it seems to have a scratchy/noisy Master Volume pot. Is this common with the Digitakt? I’m gonna open her up and see if I can clean it.

Try turning the encoder back and forth 20-30 times to loosen any dirt and then blowing it out with some compressed air. Then repeat a few times. This will often fix it. If not you could try using some cleaning spray, but make sure you use a lubricant afterwards as the cleaning agent will remove the grease and this will eventually make the encoder worse.

Thanks, I have some compressed air so will give that a go first. Do you need to actually open the unit up or do you mean just pull the knob cap off and spray from there?

I tried blowing it out from above a few weeks ago and it didn’t work, so I opened her up today and tried from inside and it’s definitely better, but it’s not completely gone. Strange thing though is that I’ve notice my Syntakt (which is obviously only a few months old) also has a slightly noisy volume too (although nothing like the Digitakt had). I’m guessing this is common/normal so I’m just going to stop worrying about it.

This looks powerful and sounds fantastic! It’s not cheap though when compared to other similar size synths. It’s roughly around twice the price of the Novation Summit and Hydra Synth Deluxe.
