Filter Section
General information
Within each Machine, the sound source is always routed through the same Filter section, available on Tab 3.
The Filter section then goes to the Amp section before going to the Mixer.
The filter section has 3 pages containing different controls. When a Tab header displays small bar icons, click its corresponding button underneath to jump between its pages.
Page 1:
| Filter 1 Frequency | Filter 1 Resonance | (Filter Morph) -or- (Filter Gain) |
Filter 1 Type |
|
Controls the filter's cutoff frequency |
Controls the filter's resonance amount |
Morph between the filter types, from Low-Pass to Notch to High-pass. This parameter is only available when the filter type is set to SVF for State Variable Filter. -or- Set the EQ |
Select a filter type and slope. Read the chart below for details on every filter available. This parameter cannot be modulated. |
Page 2 is the same as page 1, but controls Filter 2. In order to unlock it, you need to have the Routing on page 3 on a setting other than Single.
Filter types reference:
| Off | SVF | K35 LP12 / HP6 | TLD LP 6/12/18/24 | TLD N 12/24 |
| The filter is bypassed | State Variable Filter model. Use Knob 3 to morph between filter types | Korg 35. Inspired by the MS-20 filter. |
Transistor Ladder Filter model. Inspired by the classic Moog filter. Low-Pass with a selection of slopes from 6dB/oct to 24/dB/oct | Transistor Ladder Filter model. Inspired by the classic Moog filter. Notch filter with 12dB/oct and 24dB/oct slopes |
| TLD BP 12/24 | DLD LP24 | COMB +/- | FORMANT | BELL EQ |
| Transistor Ladder Filter model. Inspired by the classic Moog filter. Band-pass with 12dB/oct and 24dB/oct slopes |
Diode Ladder Filter model. Inspired by the TB-303 filter. Low-pass with a steep 24dB/oct slope. | Comb filter for hollowed-out sounds and wooshes effects. With positive or negative feedback (resonance) | Formant filter for vowel sounds. Morph through A-E-I-O-U with Knob 1. | Simple 1-band equalizer to increase or decrease a selected frequency region. Knob 2 will adjust the bell width and Knob 3 will set the gain |
Page 3 allows for filter routing options:
| Routing | Balance between filter 1 and 2 | - | - |
| Select a routing configuration for the filters. Single enables only filter 1. Serial routes the output of Filter 1 to Filter 2. Para will route both filters in parallel Split will split the sound sources into the two filters, depending on the Machine select. |
Controls the volume of both filters at the output. Fully clockwise only filter 2 will be heard, and fully counter-clockwise it will be only filter 1. | - | - |
