Hey Robert -
The 440 is probably my favorite MOTM filter. It has a 'woody'
character to it that is alomost acoustic. The 490 is fatter, but has
a limited timbre range, IMO.
I dunno about the P5, but my guess is that you would be hard-pressed
to find a higher quality filter ∗anywhere∗, particularly on a decades
old synth. This is the first time I've heard that the 440 was P5-
inspired. Is this true?
Happy filtering!
Mike
