Suggestion: Filter device

There is this post here from many years ago: "Hidden" Vowel Filter Device!
and I recently talked with someone about it.

On the same note, I think from a user perspective it would be better to have only one filter device, then be able to select analog or digital or any kind of filter type within that one device.

So why not clean that all up and just make a single filter device with all the options.
Digital, analog or “hidden”.

I think that would be a good improvement over hopefully little work.

Warmest regards, Aaron.

hmm. this sounds like i could provide a shortcut + menu entry for “Vowel Filter” and have it be the Chorus but set up to Vowel Filter settings.

well, there we go :+1:

Do not forget to adjust the preset dry/wet so that the chorus is deactivated!

Great idea, actually.

And max out the resonance. This vowel filter has been my secret sauce on a lot of tracks :slight_smile:

Will correct that. Thanks!

now it initializes in this state
Vowel filter
wet = 100%
resonance at max

is this what we want? :slight_smile:

edit: i mean i could set rate + depth to something, not sure

Yes, you need to set “Dry/Wet” it to 100% wet so that the filter has full effect. But then you also need to set the “Depth” to zero %, else you will get a vibrato like effect from the Chorus engine.

Vowel Reso is subject to taste, sometimes you want the full, sometimes a little less. Too little, will not seem to have strong effect, but sometimes it’s useful, too.

Does the phase slider still affect the sound even if the Depth is at 0%? Might have to turn it to 0º

Rate 0
Depth 0
Drywet 100%
Resonance max
And phase 0%

Hows that
