filter.  These are modeled on classic analog synthesizers.  The "mg" 
is the Mini-moog, the "rp" is the Arp 2600, and the "jp"is the 
Roland Jupiter 8.  Some of the filters, like the 8-pole lowpass, 
phase warp, and the 6-pole bandpass, are not based on any classic 
design.

there will be new effects as well.  The vocoders, for instance, are 
significantly improved from anything we've done previously, and one 
of the phasers is modeled after the phaser built into the old Arp 
Quadra (crappy synth, great phaser).
