We poured our hearts and souls into the 3rd Wave and you've done a fantastic job of showing its depth, breadth, and history here, Devin. Great playing, too. We can't thank you enough.

the little lick you played at 4:19 is soooo good, giving me goosebumps, what a gorgeous sound!

I listen to modern music as most people do, but my real passion is that 80's sound. So whilst it's nice to be able to create modern stuff, I love this synth for how it plays that 'classic' (PPG Wave) sound.

Excellent video! Thanks, Miles Away for really showing off some of what it is capable of. And of course, there is still a lot more beyond this. I love the patches near the beginning when you show us some of your creations. They are just smokin'!

[JohnTsibidis]

Looks and sounds amazing. I guess I will never have the pleasure to play with such a great synth.

[resofactor]

Definitely one of the most amazing synths in a long time

The way the display changes when you turn a knob is so refreshing. I don't know how to use a synth but this makes it look like a great beginner synth to teach a person the ropes.

Thanks for making the video, it's the best I've watched. I've had a 3rd Wave for a few weeks and I'm still getting to grips with it and your video has helped immensely.

Near $5000. Very lovely.
I’d need to first win the Lottery.
Happy for you that you have one. From days of old, I know the feeling of receiving what will be a cherished synth.
I hope you do more episodes in the Wave. Would be nice merely to HEAR IT.

Wow. I didn’t give this synth much consideration or watched videos on it until now… you made it sound amazing. Or it just sounds amazing. I need to dive into my wavetable synths more, they have so much potential.

I love it, I started out with a Juno 106 back in the 80s and this is simply incredible. Hopefully one day I can get one!

[RJasonKlein]

Epic demo and review - one of the best I've seen on any synth on YouTube. Subscribed!

Like the OB-X8, this sounds amazing even dry which to me is the mark of a great synth. Definitely on my list for next major synth acquisition ! 😂

[johnbyrne]

Brilliant video just shows how fantastic the 3rd wave is, got mine a few months ago love. Cheers 👍

The fact that you replaced your Summit with this really speaks to how versatile the Summit is, to have held this space in your setup, only to be replaced by something nearly double the price. For $2299 and even less used, the Summit is a fantastic synth value, super under rated, and can hold its own against something like the 3rd Wave. For near $5k we expect this to be as amazing as it is. Love the content as always. 3rd Wave is fantastic. I’m a sucker for a blue synth.

If i could afford it i would buy it right now!!! Amazing sounding instrument and it sounds so sweet to me ears. Excellent review.

[DreamscapesMusicCinema]

Fantastic Demo Miles ! This sounds so amazing. We all truly value all your Synthesizer knowledge! I hope all is well in Your world 🌎. Mark Bensette Aux Bois 🇨🇦.

[GuyTallo]

Such a musical and emotional synth. Great presentation.

[Equinoxalpha]

I remember the days when each instrument you bought was for it's individual character. The PPG wave will forever be remembered for it's individualism and undeniable character. The 3rd Wave seems to have captured both perfectly and even improved on the original. Very impressive 👍

Hey man, I know a lot of people have said this already, but you are insanely talented! I'm so glad I found out about your works through "The Biggest Menace" series. I've probably listened to that intro theme about 10 times now lol. I don't know anything about synths or other electronic gear, but best believe I'll be sticking around.
