Page 7: Understanding The Product
2. UNDERSTANDING THE PRODUCT FRONT PANEL ote that there are no input or output controls. FilterFactory is set up to give you unity gain when bypassed or when the Mix control is at 0%. This means that signals running through it are not boosted or reduced in gain. - Page 8 FRONT PANEL The Low Pass Filter is the most commonly used filter type. This is the kind of filter you will find on vintage synths and envelope followers. It is useful for controlling the amount of harmonics or the brightness of a signal. As you sweep the frequency control, try adding some resonance to make the cutoff frequency more audible.
- Page 9 UNDERSTANDING THE PRODUCT FRONT PANEL " Waveform: The LFO provides the following cyclic (or repetitive) waveforms: Sawtooth, Inverse Sawtooth, Triangle, Square Wave, Envelope Follow and Random. If you increase the LFO depth and turn the LFO speed up a bit you will be able to hear their effect on your frequency setting.

PERFORMANCE GUIDE SET UPS Pre-Mixer he advantage of this setup in a live situation is that the FilterFactory effect can be auditioned (cued) while other sources are playing. A caution though; it is possible to get a large amount of gain with higher resonance settings, so when auditioning FilterFactory through headphones keep the level low and be careful with high settings of the Resonance control. - Page 12 PERFORMANCE GUIDE SET UPS Mixer with Aux Send his setup requires a mixer with auxiliary (aux) send and return capabilities. All sources are connected directly to the mixer channel inputs. FilterFactory is fed its signals from the mixer’s aux sends. This setup allows any or all of your sound sources to be processed through FilterFactory at any time.
- Page 13 PERFORMANCE GUIDE SET UPS Post Mixer his is a simple setup for stereo processing of your entire mix. You’ll want to use this setup only after you have explored all the sonic possibilities of FilterFactory because cueing is not possible. The cueing limitation can be minimized by bringing in the effect gradually with FilterFactory’s mix control and doing any adjustments from there.
