Dan Worrall's Valve Filter (by Nick Collier)

Post by stonberg »

I posted this link up on the Cakewalk forums some time ago. I was quite surprised that it received just one reply, and that person thought it sounded 'awful'.

I think this is the best sounding box of electronics on the planet (Planet Earth, not Z).

I could rule the world if I had that filter! Or, quite possibly, hold it to ransom... 8)

sounds quite like my Sherman FB, but this has way less possibilities (sherman has CV, midi, built in mod).
anyway, unless you're really only into merzbow or other extremes of music, these are boxes you'll use on the occasional drum loop once or twice, and then they'll start collecting dust. a few years later, you'll go 'ha, my sherman, let's give it a go', and quickly remember you had higher hopes when you bought the device... nice if you wanna spice up your collection of drum hits, but quickly over the top.
just look for wavelength transfusion (if I'm not mistaken) for Scope. Adern had one really nice filter device in the pipelines, but never saw the light of day...

I didn't realise such a thing was built commercially! That does look pretty cool :)
