The Effects and Parameters

SweepFilter

 

 

 

 

 

 

SweepFilter simulates a Moog-

 

 

 

 

 

 

type resonant low-pass filter. Cut-

 

 

 

 

 

 

off frequency and output level are

 

 

 

 

 

 

interpolated, and can be swept.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The performance of this filter is

 

 

 

 

 

 

high enough that it can be used as

 

 

 

 

 

 

a lowpass filter for hiss reduction.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The parameters were de-
