F185 rez
This filter cube is nearly identical to the ‘rez’ filter, but it’s based
on the even harmonic series. The overall effect is quite similar, though
somewhat less ‘hollow’ sound at certain settings.
Morph: I
ncreasing this parameter pushes the filter towards a flat curve
and reduced ‘Q’.
Freq. Tracking:
Tunes the filter.
Transform 2:
Tunes the filter. Higher values add a high-frequency
bump.
F186 MellowPeaks
This filter provides two or three mildly resonant poles which can be swept
through the frequency spectrum in a number of ways, depending on the
settings for the various parameters. With lower settings for Frequency
Tracking , the filter takes on a distinctly vocal quality on most source
material.
Morph:
Positive values generally move the poles upward in frequency.
Freq. Tracking:
Positive values generally move the poles upward in
frequency.
Transform 2:
Positive values generally move the poles upward in
frequency.
F187 AHmBnd.4
The Morph Offset can be swept to sweep a cluster of resonant peaks,
producing a pitch-bend effect. The effect is generally most pronounced
with Frequency Tracking set to a fairly low value.
Morph:
Sweeping produces ‘pitch-bend’ effect.
Freq. Tracking:
Tunes the filter.
Transform 2:
Not used.
F188 Vintage
Features an accentuated low end, and a series of notches which can be
swept via morphing. The most dramatic resonant sweeps are produced with
Frequency Tracking set to minimum and Transform 2 set to maximum,
producing the classic analog filter sweep sound.
Morph:
Use to sweep the filter.
Freq. Tracking:
Tunes the filter.
Transform 2:
Controls filter resonance.
F189 MildQPole
Morph:
Sweeps between a shallow roll-off low-pass to almost flat
response.
Freq. Tracking:
Tracks keyboard.
Transform 2:
At maximum, inverts morph effect.
