The 3rd Wave has come a long way since it first came out, capable of things we never dreamed of at launch. With this release, we have decided to move our OS version forward to 2, and we are excited about these latest improvements under the hood that now unlock even more possibilities compared to where the 3rd Wave began.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Brand New Shimmer Reverb\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The first highlight of this release is a new effect: Shimmer Reverb, living in effect slot 2 right after Super Plate. The idea behind a shimmer effect isn't new, but the way we've built ours gives you a lot of freedom to create and control inside the synthesizer. Most importantly, it sounds great without harshness or the need to EQ. It makes even the most simple patch sound immense and wide. Route a single sustained note through it and just let it spread the sound out and up at the same time. What makes the effect especially cool is that Rev Time, Pitch Amount, and LP\/HP Cutoff are all available as destinations in the mod matrix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Smarter, More Capable Way to Make Waves\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond making the existing modes even better, Make Waves gets a third option: Spectral, built for chorused sounds, ambient recordings, and anything with a pitch that wanders.
