Z-PLANE FILTER DESCRIPTIONS
TRY THE HEAD PAN FILTERS WITH
PERCUSSION INSTRUMENTS.
THEY REALLY WORK.
232
F278 Analog.4
Morph: At 0 offset, provides a lowpass rolling off at 2.5kHz with a
single peak at 44Hz. At full offset, provides a flat response with an
11.5kHz boost.
Freq. Tracking: Same as Morph.
Transform 2: Not Used
F279 Skrtch Cube
Like F241 String Cube, a good overbright response through velocity on
Transform 2, In this filter, Morph offers a choice of "soft play" effects. In
zero position, soft play is very mellow as normally expected. In full Morph
position, soft play is scratchy and bright, like fingernails on a guitar string
or drum.
Set-Up Instructions: Set Wheel to Morphing in Realtime Controllers. Set
Velocity to Transform 2 in Note-On Controllers for good response.
Set Key Center to C1 and Key to Filt. Freq. Track +64 in order to
maintain appropriate pitch tracking. Should be used to get correct
filter effect but can be used for upper register brightness.
Morph: Controls timbre change, from mellow to scratchy.
Freq. Tracking: Maintains harmonic filter tracking.
Transform 2: Determines brightness and volume.
F280 KitchenSink
Morph: Starts as a mild all-pass boost and results in a large peak at
≈130Hz.
Freq. Tracking: Tunes the filter.
Transform 2: Controls polarity and intensity of filter effect. Well-suited
for sweep effects.
F281 Head Pan 1
Should be used on the primary instrument in conjunction with Head Pan 2
on the secondary instrument. Together, these two filter cubes mimic the
directionally-dependent filtering of the head and pinna (external ear). In
contrast to a conventional pan, the headphone image starts above the head
(when the Morph control is at its maximum) and moves lower as it moves
to either side. When the Morph control is at its minimum, however, the
Filt. Freq. Track control pans between left and right at ear level.
Set-up Instructions: Try assigning velocity to Transform 2 +127, and
Ctrl D (pedal) to Filt. Freq. Track +127 in Note-On Controllers.
Assign Ctrl A to Morph +127 in Real Time Controllers. Initial Pan
settings: Primary -7, Secondary +7. Re-trigger notes as controllers
are modulated. (Use headphones for maximum effect.)
Morph: Sweeps transform peak and notches from high to very high
frequency.
Freq. Tracking: Reverses left and right filters, regardless of morphing
level.
Transform 2: Gradually increases brightness and volume.
