Effects Reference
Auto Filter
Auto Filter provides two morphable filter shapes with distortion. The morphing
between the two shapes, as well as the cutoff, can be controlled with a manual pedal
control, an LFO, or an envelope shaper.
Filter Parameters
The two effect shapes to be used are selected via the Filter Shape pop-up menus.
The filter shapes are the same as on the Filter subpage, see
“Filter Shape” on page 39.
Input
Adjusts the gain before the filter and distortion. This parameter only affects the wet
signal.
Cutoff
Specifies the cutoff frequency of the filter.
Resonance
Emphasizes the frequencies around the cutoff. At higher resonance settings, the filter
self-oscillates, which results in a ringing tone.
Distortion
Adds distortion to the signal. The effect depends on the selected distortion type. At
higher settings, it creates a very intense distortion effect.
Ö This parameter is only available for the Tube Drive, Hard Clip, Bit Red, and Rate Red
types.
Type
The available types are:
Output
Adjusts the gain after the filter and distortion. This parameter only affects the wet signal.
Mix
This sets the ratio between the dry and the wet signal.
Type Description
Off The filter offers no distortion.
Tube Drive This type offers a lot of character by adding warm, tube-like distortion.
You can set the amount of tube drive with the Distortion parameter.
Hard Clip This type adds bright, transistor-like distortion. You can set the
amount of hard clipping with the Distortion parameter.
Bit Red This type adds digital distortion by means of quantization noise. You
can adjust the bit reduction with the Distortion parameter.
Rate Red This filter type adds digital distortion by means of aliasing. You can
adjust the rate reduction with the Distortion parameter.
