Performing musicians, music producers, and sound designers in search of a powerful, complex synthesizer that's easy to use will be thrilled with 3rd Wave Advanced Wavetable Synthesizer (Desktop Module), a classic PPG-style wavetable synthesizer with analog filters, versatile modulation matrix, and advanced wave playback capabilities. The 4-part multitimbral sound engine also features a 24-voice polyphony for full, rich performances.

The 3rd Wave's power lies in its numerous 64-position wavetables (both classic and new) and its 6-stage Wave Envelope, which allows you to sweep through these wavetables in a variety of ways. Each part includes three oscillators that can generate a different wavetable with a different wave envelope, allowing for massive sonic potential. The 3rd Wave is easy to program with the majority of the sound shaping tools are within reach from the front panel.

  • While the 3rd Wave has roots in the classic digital wavetable synths of the past, it takes that concept into the 21st century with a lush, expansive sound that’s a product of its expanded wavetables and warm, organic-sounding analog filters
  • It boasts not only a punchy, Dave Rossum-designed 2140 analog low-pass filter with variable saturation, but a second, SEM-style state-variable filter (low-pass, high-pass, notch, and band-pass) for additional tone-sculpting. Run both filters in series for harmonically complex textures.

  • With 24-voices, the 3rd Wave has enough power for the most note-intensive performances
  • And that polyphony really comes into play with its ability to layer up to 4 independent parts or split zones—each with a completely different sound, sequence, and dual effect
  • Each stereo part has independent panning, volume, and a dedicated stereo physical output

  • The secret weapon of any synth is its mod matrix, and the 3rd Wave doesn’t disappoint.
  • With 16 assignable slots, 12 additional fixed-source slots, 27 sources, and 114 destinations, it has the flexibility of a modular.
  • And all of this power is per multipart. That means up to 4 independent layers of sound, each with its own mod matrix.

  • The 3rd Wave’s sequencer is an inspiring tool for both composers and sound designers because it is pattern-based and can sequence notes, songs, and parameter changes.
  • For composing and performing, enter notes and chords in real time with or without quantization for maximum groove and arrange up to 24 patterns of up to 32 measures in length into songs just as easily.

[Yes] This is the second one of these I've purchased, to get even more voices. Out of all the prophet follow-on synths that Dave Smith and Sequential have produced over the years, this one finally captures the sound of the famous Prophet-5. Some people complain that they followed the scheme of the original Prophet-5 a little too closely and left out some functions (like onboard effects) that recent synths seem to have, but I think Sequential arrived at the right balance on this unit.

[AC Input] I've been looking for a synthesizer that captured the passion and the emotion when I write, I have found it in the hydrasynth deluxe. B&H has always been a great store. I've been getting cameras and musical equipment from them for a very long time and will continue. If you're looking for the ultimate creation to the hydra synth is the one.

[Yes] Great, powerful instrument at a great package price on B&H. I'm a guitar player and I was just looking for something to give me some new sounds and inspiration - the XD definitely did. The presets are great right out of the box, but the journey into designing my own analog synth sounds has been even better due to the intuitive layout of the XD. The built in effects are great, and then I downloaded a few 3rd party effects and oscillators to make this versatile synth even more versatile. It's a great starter if you're looking to go down the synth rabbit hole. I can also see it taking a good bit of time to outgrow the XD too. It really has it all in there.

[LCD] The single'' patches are sounding larger than life with its 16 voices! The multi patches are very interesting. They offer a large array of complexity, texture, beats, etc.


Delivery was fast. Less than 72 hours in Canada!

[45 W] This synth is versatile as any I've worked with thus far. Tender little twinkles, robust booming bass, shimmering pads, leads that can tear a hole though space and time, and thick atmospheres. Make sure to train your ears beforehand because if you aren't careful it'll blast them off. The filters are so flexible that I sometimes let it go too far and it can squeal like a pig. I cannot wait to put this through some extra outboard filtering and processing and let it's mischievous timbre meander a bit.

[AC Input] Excellent quick service from B&H! Very pleased with the overall construction of the Argon8X- especially the high quality 61 note keyboard which will now also serve as my primary MIDI keyboard. Great exciting sounds which are quite easy to edit, if desired. In the short time I have had with it, I would agree that the Argon8 is very well suited for pads and leads. The MODAL app is excellent and makes it easy to manage the presets and load some of the many great patches Modal has available. I already have my iPad stationed on the right side to access patches and edit control parameters. I like the fact that Modal shows commitment to the customer by making system updates and producing tutorial videos on a very regular basis. That makes me comfortable that I will be able to depend on the Argon8X for many years.

[Yes] This synth is winning award after award, and for good reason.
Hybrid wavetable synthesizer.
24 voices, 4-part multitimbral.
3 oscillators per voice.
64 user wavetables.
32 wavetables from classic PPG synths built-in.
7 modeled analog waveforms: sine, saw, triangle, pulse, white noise, pink noise.


I'm digging the virtual analog just as much as my analog OB-X8. Honestly, this may be the only synth you ever need?


Got it in one day from B&H at a good price too.
