Filter
"Filter" is a modulation effect similar to the chorus and flanger effects, but it controls the frequency range
and modulation source instead of the pitch. Therefore, it has different filter types and modulation times.
The filter is particularly effective for synth sounds ("filter sweeps" on pads and atmospheres) and for
creatively manipulating drum loops (such as for variations, fills etc.). It can also be used on guitars to
produce the well-known "wah" effect with tempo modulation or a special mode.
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
