Product Description
The Singular Audio filterdrve is an adaptation of the famous Korg MS-20 analog filter for the 500 series format. This is the mono version. The filterdrve has everything you want in a 500 series filter, such as balanced I/O, low noise, great headroom, etc. The flilterdrve also includes overdrive, audio feedback into the cutoff control and a controllable gain structure.
The real killer is that this filter, coupled with the drive and resonance, really screams. Hence, the name: filterdrve.
Low noise NE5532 opamps are used for great noise performance, while retaining the squelching sounds of the original. Self-oscillation can be attained with the peak control at maximum. The filter can be switched from low to high-pass operation. The bypass switching is done with hardware relays, for full bypass transparency.
The filterdrve runs on a 16V bipolar power supply, which allows for a lot of headroom. The drive control reduces the headroom, for overdriven sounds. Noise is much lower than the original MS-20 filter.
The filterdrve has alpha metal pots (knobs), an anodized black aluminum faceplate which is laser engraved, and good quality switches.
This filter has singular control for stereo operation. Output controls are split to account for any minor tolerance differences between left and right. The filter has great stereo balance. The stereo version also adds an envelope follower, which smoothes out the audio signal and can be used to modulate the cutoff frequency.
