What Filterbank does
Each filter in Filterbank works as a State Variable Filter with non-linear feedback paths and capacitor simulation, and the two filters can run in parallel or in serial. A 12-position Harmonics switch locks the second filter to musical intervals relative to the first, and a multi-stage distortion section offers four modes, Clean, Warm, Crunch and Edge, with asymmetric processing. A 4x oversampling option is toggleable and is meant to reduce artifacts at high resonance settings.
Key features
- Dual SVF filter system. Two independent State Variable Filters each offer lowpass, bandpass and highpass modes, and they can be routed in parallel or in serial.
- Harmonic interval locking. A 12-position Harmonics switch locks the second filter to musical intervals relative to the first.
- Multi-stage distortion. Four distortion modes, Clean, Warm, Crunch and Edge, process the signal asymmetrically.
- Modulation system. LFOs with sine and sawtooth waveforms, including DAW-synced tempo divisions, sit alongside ADSR and AR envelopes triggered by audio, sidechain or MIDI.
- Pitch tracking and MIDI. Filter frequencies follow the detected input pitch, and MIDI note mapping can trigger, gate, block and unblock both filters.
- Thermal drift and console noise. A THD drift simulation adds a slow, organic variation to the filter character.
