So, when the manual says this.. 

"Changing a single parameter, the Morph, changes many complex filter
parameters simultaneously. Following along the Morph axis you can see
that the \ufb01lter response smoothly interpolates between the two \ufb01lters.
This is the essence of the Z-plane @257;lter. Through the use of
interpolation, many complex parameters are condensed into one
manageable entity."

... it is simply a bold faced lie? Especially the 'condensed into one
manageable entity' phrase, considering, on my command station at
least, they seem to have condensed all this functionality into
absolutely nothing at all.


The manual section tries VERY hard to suggest that there are two
filters, that can be interpolated between using a Morph parameter. It
even cites a lot of (entirely irrelevant) mumbo jumbo about how the
human vocal tract morphs between vowels. Was this function dropped at
the last minute, or did Emu deliberatly intend to mislead its customers?
