Filter parameters
Speed
: The modulation speed is set by note values ranging from 1/1 to 1/16 (even or dotted). Similar to analog
delay, the tempo information is automatically provided by the arrangement.
A peculiarity of the final position of the controller:
Tempo synchronization stops and modulation is controlled via the signal level.
Freq
: This is the base frequency for modulating the filter, and generally takes place above this frequency, i.e.
the modulation increases the filter frequency.
Depth
: This control determines the modulation depth, i.e. the amount by which the speed control (or envelope
mode, as described above) increases the base frequency. For extreme effects, turn "Freq" all the way to
the left and "Depth" all the way to the right.
Filter modes
Low-pass
A filter with a slope of 24 dB/octave and a
small amount of resonance. The treble
frequencies above the base frequency
(cut-off frequency) are filtered steeply. This
is great for filter sweeps on synth pads and
drum loops.
Band-pass
Only the frequencies around the base
frequency are passed through the filter (24
dB slope with resonance). Use this mode to
create wah-wah effects for guitars.
Band
elimination
(„Notch-Filter
")
Two parallel filters (–36 dB) with linked
base frequencies create two 'notches' in the
frequency spectrum. This allows you to
create interesting sounds (e.g. guitar chords),
and it sounds similar to a phaser.
High-pass
This mode achieves the opposite effect to
the low-pass filter. Frequencies below the
base frequency are filtered steeply. If you
'thin out' sections of your track (for example,
a drum track) with a tempo-based
modulation, this can sound very effective
when contrasted with the full-range
frequency spectrum (for example, if the filter
is turned off for the next object).
