To add a complex filtering with the fixed filter bank, start by activating the 2 switches “VCA1” and “VCA2”. This will connect the effect to the two VCA outputs.
Modify the filter frequency bands by turning the gain knobs. This will increase (to the right) or reduce (to the left) the gain corresponding to these frequencies.
Increase the gain of the chosen frequency
You can refine the equalization with the bandwidth knob corresponding to the frequency you have chosen. If you turn the knob (underneath the frequency gain setting) to the right, you will reduce the bandwidth around the central frequency to make the equalization setting increasingly precise. On the other hand, by turning it to the left, you will increase the bandwidth, making the equalization less precise.
Set the frequency band width
If you have applied several strong equalizations, (with very pronounced band reductions for example) you run the risk of having a consequential decrease in volume. To regain a normal volume level, turn the “gain” knob (on the bottom right of the filter bank) towards the right. Watch out for saturation.
Filter bank output gain
Thanks to MIDI, it is possible to record frequency gain and band width knob movement (with the MIDI sequencer). This will make the sound “speak” or evolve in a manner that synthesizer filters cannot. Try it for yourself.
5.4.2.2The “Dual delay”
You can also enrich your sound and give it more stereo space; for this, add stereo delay.
