Hertz or musical notes.
- Hold down Alt/Option while dragging the filter frequency around to snap to
whole notes.
- Because this plugin lets you crank every parameter up to 11, you may want to
avoid rapidly sweeping the frequency parameter down all the way to 5 Hertz
when you have many filter stages enabled. Because of the way these filters
work, this may cause comparatively loud resonances in the 0-15 Hertz range. In
that case you may want to use a peak limiter after this plugin until you
understand how it reacts to different changes. Or maybe you'll want to check
out [Safety Limiter](../safety_limiter), which is made for this exact purpose.
- The safe mode is enabled by default. This limits the frequency range and the
number of filter stages. Simply disable the safe mode if you want to crank
everything up to 11. With safe mode disabled you may find that going down to
the bottom of the frequency range introduces some loud low frequency
resonances, especially when combined with a lot of filter stages. In that case
you may want to use a peak limiter after this plugin until you understand how
it reacts to different changes. Or maybe you'll want to check out [Safety
Limiter](../safety_limiter), which is made for this exact purpose.
- Turn down the automation precision to reduce the DSP load hit of changing the
filter frequency and resonance at the cost of introducing varying amounts of
aliasing and zipper noises.
- The aforementioned artifacts introduced by setting a low automation precision
can actually be useful for sound design purposes.
- Change the number of filter stages to immediately reset the filters and stop
ringing.
