The nasty way to sculpt and refine your sounds
Do you know how Jimi Hendrix got his signature guitar sound?
Nonlinear Filter.
Or that screechy lead in Block Rockin' Beats, by The Chemical Brothers?
Nonlinear Filter.
How about the synth melody in Madonna's Like a Virgin?
Believe it or not, Nonlinear Filter.
Alright, maybe not OUR Nonlinear Filter. But if you are looking to add some vintage analog twang to your sound, we have you covered. Nonlinear Filter offers colorful filtering in a variety of flavors, ranging from a classic analog sound to more outlandish modes the further down the list you go.
Parameters
Type
Select between all pass, low pass, band pass, high pass and notch filters.
Cutoff
The operating frequency of the filter.
Q
The filter Q setting. High values for Q will make the filter resonate at the cutoff frequency.
Drive
Overdrives the filter, which makes the effect of the nonlinear behaviour more prominent.
Mode
Selects what flavor of nonlinearity you want. The clean mode has no nonlinearies, and does not color the signal. All other modes distort and color the signal in different ways to some extent.
