Replacement for MOTM-450

2006-07-09 by Scott Juskiw

I was initially disappointed that the MOTM-450 Fixed Filter Bank was 
shelved, but am now thinking maybe this is a good thing. The 
disadvantage of the 450 is the "fixed" filters. More useful would be 
a programmable parametric EQ with a variable number of bands where 
each band's Fc, Q, and gain can be set, stored, and recalled. This 
would be much more useful than a fixed filter bank for synthesizing 
vocal formants and resonant cavities. Voltage control might be 
difficult due to the large number of parameters involved (modulating 
frequency, resonance, and gain for each band would require a whole 
lotta jacks, but perhaps these could be controlled via MIDI CCs 
instead).

Is this something that can be done with the new AudioEngine core? Or 
would we be better off with some off the shelf EQ from some other 
company?
