It is a descriptive word more than something technical. Really, the only way 
to describe squelch is to listen to a 303, as it is the archetypal 
'squelchy' filter. Many other early rolands are squelchy too. To get a good 
sound example find something with a 303 square wave and plenty of rezonance, 
thats squelchy!
