Desktop Resonant Filterbank is a new performance and studio production-friendly FX unit from Erica Synths. An analog stereo filterbank, the unit has a set of ten bandpass filters with hands-on control over each bands’ ‘boost’ or ‘cut’ and complex control configurations that can turn the unit into an unconventional multimode filter. Desktop Resonant Filterbank includes an envelope follower and the ability to be an instrument on its own when played with various resonance settings, resulting in an experimental sound generator for ‘no-input mixer’ style setups.
The unit can be used with synthesizers, drum machines and modular setups. An analogue gain stage that boosts incoming signals, up to +24dB, enables interaction with guitars and the majority of other instruments- encouraging discovery of entirely new sounds from instruments you thought you knew inside-out.
User snapshots (presets), MIDI control over all parameters and a sleek aluminium case- matching the Erica Synths lineup of compact desktop units- will make the Resonant Filterbank an integral part of many studio and live performance setups.
