MOTM

The 485 is gritty and if you take it to follow the GX-1, the studio electronics crowd find it nasally and aggressive. I believe the GX-1 was their design inspiration for the NovaMusik CODE. But if I'm not mistake, it doesn't self-oscillate, so it might not meet your droning & doom metal needs. If the MOTM samples aren't good enough for you to evaluate, look for GX-1 samples or samples of the CODE from SE. You can also check out the samples of their CS-80 filter, which is also the design inspiration of the 480. It's another favorite. But I've never heard more people rave about the 440. Of course, I want them all, but I'm usually broke.

Subject: [motm] Filter recomendations?


I'll need to pick up a MOTM format filter soon.  I have some in other formats, but none in 5U.  My favorates in the other formats are the Mankato I have in frac and the cwejman dual mode and livewire Frequensteiner in euro.  However I'm looking at finding something a little different for my MOTM format filter.  I've especially been looking at the MOTM 410 and the MOTM 440, but welcome any other suggestions as well.

I'm mostly doing Noise/Drone in my solo shows/recordings, and also playing with a Doom Metal band doing drones and Hawkwind like psychedelic sounds.
