Typically, yes. They used a 2-pole, 12dB/oct filter. You could
get them to resonate by reducing the resistance in the feedback
path.

resonance
Howdy,
i've had an EML 500 for many years, ($20 cost), the filter will not
resonate enough to go into oscillation. Is this normal?
Not a clue. I don't have a 500. But, the 400 filter uses that
board.
Look for a 15K resistor connected to the top of the Q
slider.
That 15K resistor connects to the input of a 748 quad op amp,
two 100K resistors and a 3.3pF cap.
The 100K resistor in parallel with the 3.3pF cap is the
feedback limiting resistor from the LP output back to the network
input.
Reduce the 100K.

Ressistance in the feed back path eh? Any hints what components that
resistor would be between?
