formant filter and is excellent for making vocal sounds but because of he
patching logistics of this filter, you might want to have a MIX2 nearby.
The VCFS, on the other hand, is a unique animal in the synth world in that
the slope itself is VC. This feature is usefull for emulation of some
real-world transient timbres (i.e. sharp timbres that become soft). The VCFS
also has an -18db / Oct slope for sounds with more bite than the -12db
filters. Because of the internal mixer function of the VCFS, you could
probably do with just a standard 3x1 MIX nearby.
I only had room for two filters and my personal choice was the VCFQ(X) and
the VCFS.
