Re: 4-Pole filter with 2 VCFQs

2007-05-14 by matthew carpenter

Thanks for the help. It will be a few days before I get to try this patch, again. As far as I got, however, I can say that I agree with the 'deeper' description. It sounded quite good. I also find myself quickly heading in more 'experimental' directions when starting with an emulative patch rather than leaving it at that.

I haven't had a chance to experiment with feedback and the Variable Bandwidth Filter, yet, but I can corroborate that using feedback with the Variable Slope Filter results in some wild sounds.

If anybody has some neat feedback patches to share, I'd love to try them.

I no longer have all the required modules but I tried it a couple of
times when I did and thought it sounded pretty good - still had the
precision typical of the Serge but "deeper" if that makes sense. As I
recall, though, I spun off from that patch into a more complex mix of
various outputs and routings that produced more interesting results.
Typically I find this to be the case when trying to "emulate" other
synth architectures using the Serge - I find the Serge's own way of
doing things quickly becomes more intriguing!

I generally have had more pleasing results using feedback with the
Variable Slope and Variable Bandwidth filters. Now those can really
squelch when you get them going!
