Multimode EQ<br />
The Multimode EQ is a flexible stereo filter that is capable of implementing a range of<br />
powerful filter topologies. It is useful both for utility EQ applications and also for<br />
special effects.<br />
The Multimode EQ is built from an array of filter sections that can be configured to<br />
support:<br />
• Lowpass filters with up to 48dB/octave rolloff<br />
• Highpass filters with up to 48dB/octave rolloff<br />
• Highpass + Lowpass series or parallel combination with up to<br />
24dB/octave rolloff<br />
• Bandpass filters with up to 24dB/octave rolloff<br />
• Bandcut filters with up to 24dB/octave rolloff<br />
In addition to cutoff or center frequency parameters, each of the above filter types also<br />
has a switchable rolloff rate and adjustable resonance.<br />
A Filter Edit parameter controls whether the Multimode EQ operates in Stereo, where<br />
filter parameters are adjusted identically for both channels, or split Left and Right,<br />
where the left and right channels support completely independent filter types and<br />
parameter values.<br />
In addition to a standard Bypass switch, the effect offers an adjustable wet/dry mix<br />
parameter. While not normally found on EQ sections, adjustable wet/dry mixtures can<br />
be useful for generating phase cancellation and other special effects.<br />
Applications<br />
• Basic Tone Control - for fidelity enhancement<br />
• Rumble Filter - use the highpass configuration with 48dB/octave rolloff below<br />
50Hz.<br />
• Subwoofer Support - use the lowpass configuration with 48dB/octave rolloff<br />
below 100Hz.<br />
• Lo-Fi Effect (telephone, walkie-talkie, guitar mini-amp, distance simulation)<br />
• Extreme Spectral Shaping - use Highpass+Lowpass, Bandpass or Bandcut with<br />
independent hi/lo resonance<br />
• Pseudo-stereo Effect - apply slightly different EQ to left and right channels to<br />
broaden the spread of a mono signal<br />
• Cross-over - left and right channels split a mono signal between highpass and<br />
lowpass with a sharp transition region.<br />
