Members El Caballo Posted November 15, 2006 Members Share Posted November 15, 2006 Originally posted by Devi Ever I like the idea of an EQ pedal that has a bit of "colour" or grit to go along with the tone shaping. That's why people love the filters in Moog synthesizers. Also, Craig Anderton's Quadrafuzz has been around forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members El Caballo Posted November 15, 2006 Members Share Posted November 15, 2006 Originally posted by tocs100 Variable c/o freq. is impossible without tiny, surface-mount parts. Neither Bob Moog nor Don Buchla had surface mount parts to work with back when they built their first modulars, and they seem to have managed to implement voltage control just fine. As has almost every analog synthesizer since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members angus_old Posted November 15, 2006 Members Share Posted November 15, 2006 they should make a giant eq, like 3 feet across with really long slider handles, then someone could go up to it and do that 80s breakdancing move with waving their arms folded in front of them, then it would sound like a wah and be multimedia to boot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fast Frets Posted November 15, 2006 Members Share Posted November 15, 2006 Originally posted by fernmeister how much would you be prepared to pay? boutiquers could easily build para and graphic eqs but I'm not sure most folks would want to pony up the price over and against the factory eqs out there. Two Antelope MD EQs just went on Ebay for $226 and $232. :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As has almost every analog synthesizer since. Doesn't the voltage just control the depth of the filter (the amount of resistance to one resistor), rather than the cutoff frequency? I'm pretty sure you need a new capacitor for every c/o freq. change....And a 4-pole filter alone requires four caps. So 10 freq. choices with 4-pole filters equals 40 capacitors!

No. Google "VCF schematic" to see how it's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
