hello there are three filters in the 291e. each has its own output; there is also a summed output of all filters, each with its "amplitude" applied. so amplitude means exactly that; like a builtin vca for each filter, except it can actually apply some gain as well as attenuation.

yeah, quadrature introduces a 90deg phase shift in an envelope. nothing to do w/ audio. btw, it's pretty easy to make a digital APF with almost-linear arbitrary phase response. combine a 1sample feedforward and 1sample feedback loop: y = a*x + x_last - a*y_last phase delay = p =

Doesn't make much sense to me (But I don't own any modules). The 227e is a quad channel device. In general no one defaults audio as far as I know to 90 degree phase shifts to do quad. All you will wind up with is more potential of cancellation in an acoustic space. And 90 degrees

I might be wrong, but I have always assumed that on the 227e, positions A, B, C, and D are 90 degrees out of phase from one another. So C is 180 degrees out of phase from A and D is 180 degrees out of phase from B. Matt --- In 200e@yahoogroups.com, "Matt Carpenter" wrote: > > Hi
