Filter

Description

Vintage-flavored low-pass filter with a stronger, grittier character than a clean state-variable filter. Use it for aggressive basses, darker analog leads, and moodier pad textures.

Arguments

• input: audio/control signal to process
• cutoff: normalized cutoff control
• resonance: resonance/Q amount

Typical Values

Try cutoff around 0.02 to 0.24 and resonance around 0.10 to 0.75. It often sounds especially good on rich saw or pulse sources.

Example

sem(supersaw(X,0.12), 0.025+0.20*param(2), 0.18+0.52*param(3))

Notes

This public function name replaces the older experimental k35() name, which could confuse the parser because of the embedded digits.
