lowpass mg_4pole: Modeled on the filter found in the most famous monophonic analog synth ever
made. The filter, with a steep cutoff and deep resonance, earned much credit for its fat sound. This
filter will self-oscillate at high resonance settings.
lowpass rp_4pole: Modeled on the filter in a very popular semi-modular synth. This filter will clip
(distort) when fed a loud input level.
lowpass jp_4pole : Modeled on the lowpass filter from a popular 8-voice synth noted for its very colorful
case and colorful, versatile sound. Compare its sound to the mg or rp filters.
lowpass al_8pole : Unique to the MINIAK. 8 poles give this filter an extremely steep cutoff.
bandpass ob_2pol: Modeled on the bandpass output of the ob multi-mode filter.
bandpass al_6pol: Unique to the MINIAK. This filter sounds like an exaggerated version of the ob
bandpass.
bandpass 8vedual: Unique to the MINIAK. Two 2-pole bandpass filters, spaced 1 octave apart.
bandpass bndlimit: Unique to the MINIAK. A 2-pole highpass filter and a 2-pole lowpass filter in series,
limiting the signal to everything in between them. The resonance control adjusts the bandwidth.
highpass ob_2pol: Modeled on the highpass output of the ob multi-mode filter.
highpass op_4pol: Unique to the MINIAK. A 4-pole highpass filter.
vocal formant 1: Unique to the MINIAK. Formant filters are modeled on the human voice. This 3-band
(3 bandpass filters) version emulates the "ah" and "oo" vowel sounds.
vocal formant 2: Unique to the MINIAK. A 3-band formant filter which emulates the "oh" and "ee" vowel
sounds.
vocal formant 3: Unique to the MINIAK. A 5-band formant filter based on an idealized model of the
vocal tract.
comb 1 – 4: Unique to the MINIAK. The comb filter creates multiple resonant peaks and notches that
are not harmonically related.
phase warp: Unique to the MINIAK. This is based on an analog phaser effect. Eight allpass filters in
series create four harmonically related notches in the frequency response.
Freq (Frequency):
Dial in the frequency at which the filter begins to operate.
Res (Resonance):
Add a boost at the current filter frequency. Very high resonance settings can cause
certain filter types to "whistle," or self-oscillate.
Keytrk (Key tracking):
Set whether the filter frequency rises and falls to match the keys you play or stays
constant regardless of the keys you play. A setting of 0 means the filter frequency will remain constant
across the keyboard. If the key track parameter is set to +100, the filter tracks the keyboard perfectly, and
with enough resonance, can be played as if it were an oscillator. Negative settings mean the filter will grow
darker as higher notes are played.
EnvAmt (Envelope Amount):
Set the degree to which the filter frequency will be affected by the filter
envelope. A negative setting inverts the envelope.
Additionally, filter 2 has the following parameter:
Offset
Absolute: The value assigned for filter 2's frequency setting is applied normally.
Offset: The value assigned for filter 2's frequency is locked into a relative position with filter 1's
frequency. Filter 2's frequency automatically rises and falls in step with filter 1's frequency.
