AIR Vintage Filter (RTAS)

You can use the Vintage Filter effect to apply a modulating, resonant filter to the audio signal.

You can experiment with filter sweeps or give your sounds a large, resonant sound.

The following table lists the AIR Vintage Filter plug-in parameters:

Envelope Modulates the Formant setting by using an envelope follower. This allows you to accentuate and

enhance signal peaks in rhythmic material.

• Thresh — Sets the amplitude threshold at which the Formant setting begins to be modulated

by the envelope follower.

• Attack — Sets the time (10.0 ms to 10 seconds) it takes to respond to increases in the audio

signal level.

• Release — Sets the time (10.0 ms to 10 seconds) it takes to recover after the signal level

falls.

Mix Lets you balance the amount of dry signal with the amount of wet (processed) signal. At 50%,

the output includes equal amounts of dry and wet signal. At 0%, the output is all dry and at

100% it is all wet.

Parameter Description

Cutoff Lets you adjust the Cutoff frequency (20.0 Hz to 20.0 kHz) of the filter.

Resonance Lets you adjust the amount filter Resonance (0–100%). The filter can go into self-oscillation at

high values creating a sine wave-like overtone at the Cutoff frequency.

Fat Lets you adjust the amount of overdrive in the resonant peak. At lower settings the signal gets

quieter at high resonance settings for clean distortion. At higher settings the signal is over-driven

at high resonance settings.
