bandpass 8vedual
Unique to the Micron. Two 2-pole bandpass filters, spaced 1
octave apart.
octave apart.
bandpass bndlimit
Unique to the Micron. A 2-pole highpass filter and a 2-pole
lowpass filter in series, limiting the signal to everything in between
them. The resonance control adjusts the bandwidth.

highpass ob_2pol
Modeled on the highpass output of the ob multi-mode filter.
highpass op_4pol
Unique to the Micron. A 4-pole highpass filter.
vocal formant 1
Unique to the Micron. Formant filters are modeled on the human
voice. This 3-band (3 bandpass filters) version emulates the “ah”
and “oo” vowel sounds.

vocal formant 2
Unique to the Micron. A 3-band formant filter which emulates
the “oh” and “ee” vowel sounds.
the “oh” and “ee” vowel sounds.
vocal formant 3
Unique to the Micron. A 5-band formant filter based on an
idealized model of the vocal tract.

comb 1 - 4
Unique to the Micron. The comb filter creates multiple resonant
peaks and notches that are not harmonically related.
peaks and notches that are not harmonically related.
phase warp
Unique to the Micron. This is based on an analog phaser effect.
Eight allpass filters in series create four harmonically related
notches in the frequency response.

notches in the frequency response.
Freq (Frequency)
Dial in the frequency at which the filter begins to operate.
Res (Resonance)
Add a boost at the current filter frequency. Very high resonance
settings can cause certain filter types to “whistle,” or self-oscillate.
