Did Jarre ever use the PPG Wave?

On many Internet websites Jarre is listed as a user of the PPG Wave. But I've never heard any typical PPG Wave sounds on his albums and I've never seen the PPG Wave listed on his album sleeves.

So did he ever really use it? Or is it just more incorrect Internet misinformation?

The only PPG item he ever owned was a 300 Modular System, showing up in various promo shots around the time of Place de la Concorde.

Not sure he actually used it.

It has been seen on a couple of studio pics around the early nineties, but as far as I know, he has never used it. Maybe he was just testing it.

He probably said: Ha, my RMI has been doing this since the 70's you suckers! :rofl:

It sounds cheesy I think. Somewhere between Revolution or Chronologie. :punch:

And just to correct myself, I mixed up the PPG Wave with the Waldorf Wave... didn't notice before now :punch: So Im quite sure he never used the PPG Wave... that's Tangerine Dream teritory.
