ARTURIA – PROPHET V - MANUAL
80
Band Pass Filter
Notch
The “Notch” is opposite to that of the pass band filter. It eliminates the frequencies inside a
band of frequencies.
The resonance allows you to accentuate the sag of a band of frequencies.
The Filter notch
A second setting to compliment the cut-off frequency: the resonance (you will also find it called
«emphasis» or «Q» – for Quality of filtering).
The resonance amplifies frequencies close to the cut-off frequency. The other frequencies
remaining are either unchanged (below the cut-off frequency) or reduced (above the cut-off
frequency).
On the Prophet V, you can increase the rate of resonance through the «emphasis» knob.
When you increase the resonance, the filter becomes more selective, the cut-off frequency is
amplified, and the sound begins to «whistle».
