Thought I'd chime in on this topic (before disconnecting for a couple of
weeks for a move). A question was raised a short while ago about
whether
the VCFS was "worthwhile" or "interesting". The general effect is
pretty subtle
but there's one use that makes the VCFS shine: take one of the outputs
(bandpass or hi-pass for my taste), run it thru the Freq Shifter, then
mix
the outputs of the Freq Shifter and the low-pass of the VCFS. Changing
the
slope of the filter then varies the proportion of the harmonics which
are
shifted (down for preference) and mixed back with the originally low-
pass filtered sound. Some amazing stuff lurks in this territory.
I'll try posting some samples once I'm back online -- maybe I can use
the 'away' time to actually generate some samples ;-) (No promises,
but if that plays out, I'll try some ASR samples as well.
cheers,
