2-Pole LP/HP/BP/BR
(Resonance) Bass
[Full, Tight]
is is available only when Type is one of the 2-pole Resonant or 4-pole Resonant settings, or Multi Filter. Resonance
Bass controls the character of the lter resonance at low cuto frequencies. Its eect is most noticeable with high
Resonance settings.
Tight produces a more restrained resonance, similar to a classic, American, wood-paneled monophonic synthesizer.
Full produces a wide, boomy resonance, reminiscent of a famous ve-voice American synthesizer.
4-Pole LP/HP/BP/BR
Resonance Type
[Standard, High]
is is available only when the Type is set to one of the 4-pole settings.
Standard provides the resonance character of a typical analog 4-pole lter.
High creates a more pronounced resonance.
MS-20 LP/HP and Polysix
Gain
[Loud, Less Resonance; Unity, Less Resonance; Normal, 1-osc input; Normal, 2-osc input]
Gain is available only when Type is MS-20 LP, MS-20 HP, or Polysix. ese lter types include saturation, which
interacts with resonance. With anything other than very low resonance settings, input volume can have a strong eect
on their character. e lower the input gain, the more headroom remains for the resonance to bloom. Use Gain to set
the basic input level, and then ne-tune with Trim if desired.
Normal, 2-osc input: is is the lowest input gain. It will produce the classic resonant sounds of these lters even with
extremely loud input signals.
Normal, 1-osc input: is will produce the classic resonant sounds of these lters with a single oscillator playing at full
volume. When input is louder than a single full-volume oscillator, the resonance eect will be less pronounced.
Unity, Less Resonance: Volume is unattenuated. is leaves less headroom, so resonance will be less prominent.
Loud, Less Resonance: is provides a slight volume boost on input. is makes it easy to reach saturation with the
input level alone, leaving very little headroom for resonance.
Multi Filter
What’s a Multi Filter?
Standard multimode lters generate low-pass, high-pass, and band-pass lters simultaneously—but only let you use
one of them at a time. e Multi Filter gives you access to all three lter 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 lter modes using the Manual controls.
is is capable of some cool sounds in and of itself, but things really get interesting when you modulate Crossfade; see
below..
Crossfade
[0…100]
is is available only when Type is Multi Filter. Crossfade morphs between the Mode 1 and Mode 2 settings. 0 is
all Mode 1, 100 is all Mode 2, and 1-99 are intermediate values between the two Modes. Try modulating this with
envelopes, LFOs, or real-time controllers.
Preset (Multi Filter Preset)
[List of Presets]
is is available only when Type is Multi Filter. Presets let you quickly select from a number of useful combinations of
Modes 1 and 2. You can also select any combination you wish using the manual controls, described below.
