The WAVESTATION synthesizer appeared in 1990 with its new “advanced vector synthesis system” which produced a new sound by combining and shifting between multiple complex waveforms.
The user could operate a joystick to “mix” or “morph” between four oscillators, or create a wave sequence by placing waveforms in a specific order to create rhythmic or melodic sequence patterns. In addition to these and other unique revolutionary features, the sound section has equipped all of WAVESTATION’s PCM, and the parameters of the delicate parts have been fully reproduced in the software by analyzing the circuit map of the original design.
The software provides extensive preset programs and waveforms found on all of the series’ models: WAVESTATION, WAVESTATION EX, WAVESTATION A/D, and WAVESTATION SR. 7 types of PCM and program cards are equipped. In addition to a total of over 1,500 built-in preset sounds, an enormous amount of added PCM waveforms and wave sequences allows for even more variegated sound production.
