Frequency
0.0218 ···
22.3482 (Fil 1)
44.6960 (Fil 2)
This parameter is used to set the frequency
of the selected filter (in kilohertz).
RESONANCE RES 0 ··· 100.00 This parameter is used to set the amount of
resonance of the selected filter.
FILT 2
(only)
F2 INPUT INPUT Available on FILTER 2 only, this parameter allows you to select
the input (the audio source) of FILTER 2 :
OFF FILTER 2 receives no input (but it can
generate tones on its own when in full
resonance).
MIX When this is selected, the output of PRE
FILTER MIX is fed into FILTER 2 . When MIX is
selected as the input, the A6’s filters
operate in parallel. This means that both
filters are filtering the sound independently
at the same time. Use the level knobs in
POST FILTER MIX to “mix” the levels coming
from both filters.
To filter the A6’s audio by FILTER 1 only,
simply turn off FILTER 2 by turning the FILT2
LP knob fully counter-clockwise.
To filter the A6’s audio by FILTER 2 only,
simply turn off FILTER 1 by turning the FILT1
LP , FILT1 HP and FILT1 BP knobs fully
counter-clockwise.
NOTCH When selected, FILTER 2 will filter the output
of FILTER 1 ’s notch filter(Low Pass and High
Pass, post-fader). The output of FILTER 1 LOW
PASS and FILTER 1 HIGH PASS will be
disconnected from feeding the VCA
directly—their knobs feed only Filter 2.
BP
Band Pass
When selected, FILTER 2 will filter the output
of FILTER 1 ’s band pass filter.
