Subject: RE: [motm] VC Resonance: is it that useful?

From: "Adam Schabtach" <lists@...>

If I’m using a filter that has it (and since the ‘440 and ‘480 are my favorite filters, I usually am), I tend to at least try adding a CV of some sort to the resonance input, just to see what happens. So I guess you’d have to tell me what you’d use that board space for instead before I’d say that I could part with VC resonance.

Thinking ahead to new filter designs.......

Both the '440 and '480 have VC Resonance inputs. But, and let's be honest:
are they ∗used∗ all that much? One filter more than the other?

Doing this adds cost/board space that I could use elsewhere.

The only patch that comes to mind is adding a Velocity to Res, so that the
harder you play, the more resonance you have. But I think 95% of modular
owners do not 'play' them that way.

Thoughts?
