What’s a Multi Filter?
Standard multimode filters generate low-pass, high-pass, and band-pass filters simultaneously—but only let you use
one of them at a time. The Multi Filter gives you access to all three filter modes simultaneously, in any combination,
along with the dry input signal. You can choose from a large number of preset combinations, or create your own
complex filter modes using the Manual controls.
This is capable of some cool sounds in and of itself, but things really get interesting when you use
XFADE
(see “Xfd
XFADE
allows you to mix between two of these filter settings (
Mode 1
and
Mode 2
), using
modulation sources such as envelopes, LFOs, or real-time controllers.
1 (Mode 1)
[List of filter types]
This sets the filter type for Mode 1.
Low Pass, High Pass, Band Pass,
and
Band Reject
are the standard filter types. For more information, see “Filter,” on
LP+BP, LP-BP, LP-HP, BP+HP, BP-HP, Dry+LP, Dry-LP, Dry+BP, Dry-BP, Dry+LP-HP, Dry+LP-BP, Dry+BP-LP,
Dry+BP-HP, Dry+HP-LP, Dry+HP-BP, LP+HP+BP:
These combine two or more filters at equal volumes.
Dry
is the
un-filtered input signal. The minus sign (“-”) indicates when the phase of a filter is reversed.
All On
uses the Low Pass, High Pass, Band Pass, and Dry signals at equal volumes.
Manual
lets you create your own mix of the filters; an additional four parameters will appear. For more information,
2 (Mode 2)
Mode 2 has the same selections as Mode 1.
Manual
When Mode is set to
Manual,
these parameters let you create your own mix of the filters.
You may wonder why Band Reject is not included here. This is because it’s not a filter mode per se. Instead, it’s created
by equal amounts of High Pass and Low Pass. Try it and see!
LP (Lowpass), HP (Highpass), BP (Bandpass),
Dry
[-100%…+100%]
These set the volume of the Lowpass, Highpass, Bandpass, and Dry signals, respectively. Negative values invert the
phase.
Filter Mod
These four parameters control the default modulation routings for Filter Cutoff. You can create additional routings as
desired; for more information, see “Adding Modulation Routings” on page 64.
LFO
(INTENSITY)
[-142.00…+142.00]
This sets the amount of modulation from the Filter LFO, in semitones.
