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?
