More on Boogie Filter

For the technically inclined, have a look at http://www.musicsynthesizer.com/Circuitry/Multi-Function%20VC F.htm The opening block diagram is practically a schematic for the Boogie filter with A,B,C and D being the 6,12,18 and 24 dB per octave outputs. The mixing is done externally by YOU. The resistors shown are actual Vactrol resistors in the Boogie design, instead of a shorthand symbol for the OTA's in a 3372 chip. That eliminate about 100 transistors from the signal path, and should be much quieter. Plus the mixer can be VCA based like the Blacet Quad VCA. So a sequencer or 4 envelopes can be used to mix the filter "poles" for filter mode sequencing or envelope morphing.
