Dynamic Filter
The Dynamic Filter stage is similar to the dynamic filters found in many conven-
tional synthesizers. It allows both fixed and dynamic filtering in high-pass, low-pass,
bandpass, and band elimination modes, and is effective for broad tonal control.

The Dynamic Filter Parameter Page
The dry/wet “
Balance
” parameter allows delicate variations in the degree of
filtration applied. The “
Cutoff Tracking
” parameter selects either the “
Fixed
”
mode in which the cutoff frequency of the filter is fixed at the specified cutoff frequency
in Hz (“
Cutoff Freq.
” parameter), or the “
KeyTrack
” mode in which the cutoff
frequency varies according to the key played. When “
KeyTrack
” is selected the cutoff
frequency is specified in octaves. Another important feature is “
Resonance
” — a
parameter that produces a variable resonant peak at the specified cutoff frequency in any
of the filter’s modes.
