Everything is digitally controlled but I insist filters are 100% analog. The distortion is it digital.
    - The Filter Factory offers a complete connection: RCA in / out (with pre-amplification for turn your disk), jack (balanced) in / out, triplet pm (OUF A THRU !!), CV inputs (to control freq. cool) and a foot switch input for ...!
    - Facade, the unit has 7 rotating and 11 buttons. They are dedicated to the engagement of each section ("committed") to select the type of filter, the waveform LFO / approx. follower at the time division (super effect!) and bypass. The machine offers 3 large illuminated buttons flanked by screen printing "Momentary", as the name suggests it will be to start a section for a short time (the effect is audible all the time that we build on button, then disengages when released).

    UTILIZATION

    In use, the Filter Factory is proving very ergonomic, saw the choice of format inclined rack which in use desktop offers to have good access controls. These are divided logically and in an ideal space to handle them without interfering with other commands: practice.
    The setup is more than simple: a = a rotating function, which makes editing very nice and finally passes only good time.
    MIDI is a big plus here it will allow to calibrate the LFO with a source, but also to edit and save each movement / support on the interface, for those who like to record automation is nickel.
    The LFO is fantastic and really complete (5 waveforms and an envelope follower), it allows the effects of crazy self-oscillation, vivid dub and obscure stuff! The big plus of this section and the "clock divider" it's going to allow temporal variations nifty well, we can reproduce the type of stroke stuttering effects or lo-fi. This section makes it much more versatile than many other filter device. Special mention to the envelope follower absolutely perfect! It allows really good effects funcky the P. Funk (Parliament), the synth bass to DMX Krew or quirks in the Hieroglyphic Being.

    SOUND QUALITY

    - The first section is called "buzz", it is actually a preamp section with a floor of distortion (or drive, I'm not sure). Let's be honest, this section is not really the highlight of the set, I managed to grow and dirty low a Mopho Keyboard, but in most cases it is "rather ugly" click ca as some kind of distortion sound, not gégé, but on others it is sometimes very pleasant. Do not expect a versatile floor distortion and violent, you either love the result is pass, because honestly useless to seek "the" sound distortion for ages, here is what is beautiful, or it is ugly, and for me it is often unusable as beautiful. However, the rotary will TRIM many services, meanwhile.
    - The filter section is the heart of the beast is simply a success, this section alone made me say to me "but why have they stopped doing that kind of périf these dudes." This is an analog filter, so 14bit digitally controlled, which allows the assembly to be rather fluid (no staircase effect unless you want it with the LFO + square, lol).
    The filter is very accurate, so it allows to search the detail with great precision and ease. The resulting sound is rather soft in some cases it made me think this: http://www.aftouch-cuisine.com/images/recettes/Creme_brulee.jpg
    And seen as I'm a fucking greedy, this is a good sign!
    The filter between very easily into self-oscillation, it really do not push the front reso start raving like a madman on FX genre dub (siren, alarm), disco (LFO), sci-fi etc, etc. I made a bank crossed only with the filter sounds. So watch your noreilles and your monitors, because past the first quarter already it starts to sing.
    A note, and I found this VERY IMPORTANT point no drastic loss of signal when opening the resonance, on the contrary, this filter is in the pafait or groups.
    In some situations, I preferred my other filters, for example, I used an analog synth through the filter rather than the curtis synth, and the result was really interesting in some cases, more than the filter proposed in the synth in question.
    The notch provides a rather soft and organic phaser, not bad but not violent. Each type of filter is very successful, the versatility of the fact that all big it is always on.
    I said that I needed a stereo filter to stick to the Streichfett module that is sorely lacking, the result is a success ass, I leave everything to attack a Timeline, I call all of my three devices "super combo Detroit" ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    - I received yesterday morning I spent a few hours at night and return to the (sample / synth / to / insert ...).
    - I and I tried many filters before.
    - The big plus ca is the sound, of course, and the interface, which although ugly (what is this rotten persimmon there) is great ingénierée (I know, I know), MIDI (with thru s' please) and the envelope follower / lfo.
    - What I like least, khaki interface rather ugly as a military ...
    - Initially I had gone on a MFC 42, I end by cop, but I pulled this one out of desperation, but ultimately I am so happy!

    Once and for all, this filter is an analog filter. What are these stories? the filter is analog with digital controls, which allows you to control all parameters via MIDI CC. it is rackable, construction is extremely robust, and it is green. the "distortion at the beginning of a string is just sucks. it can serve as signals to preamp a little weaklings but then attention to the breath. better be worth a swing at the right level and pass on this floor there. for the saturated ... find another solution. this filter is not an overdrive.

    effect types: low pass filter, high pass, band pass or band. resonance and LFO.

    UTILIZATION

    the general configuration is not as simple as that. we must look at its LEDs. you really have to ensure that the LEDs for input and output are both green. if they do not light, it is not good and the effect will not be effective, you will hear a slight hiss filtered at the rate of the LFO. not great. if they turn red, the sound saturates, and the distortion is not beautiful. when it has settled its input gain, and to monitor its resonance, it was a very nice effect, very convincing, very clean. (One line level output that makes the green for example, but with a preamp before it can exceed the signal.Le monotron however, see below, is a bit feeble)

    Since all parameters are automatable via its preferred daw, there will be no problem to avoid unsightly peaks. it is sufficient to lower the resonance a tad when it gets stuck, for example. No panic for those who want to use it live, a tap tempo very reactive and adjusting the tempo divisions are there to prop up the LFO has the right frequency, when forcing the resonance, it will just hurt the ears of the public. careful course reso thoroughly and passes down into the grave = BANGING Boomer.

    the manual is well done and is available online and in PDF. The most important is the implementation noon. it is clearly noted.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I love the sound. it is very hot, a little EQ will also no harm in going down because he really do big bass. lovers infra, of wobble bass will be in heaven. those who want to tumble down them beats the confines treble will not be outdone, in short, he does what is asked of a filter, and it does it well. I find that by a lfo subtle, even a grain is added to an analog VST too synthetic, which was provided to want to leave the PC for a little perfectionist rerentrer course, but provides a real more, and it can stand out.

    I love the sound of this unit, able to transform a toy like 40 euros monotron for example, war machine dubstep. (With a few pedals between the two What huh ...)

    I put 10, because that's what we want to filter.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 2 years I think. I 'have tried any model before buying it, but I compare it with the auto filter live 8, bin it is fatter, more authentic, but also less accurate, of course.

    feature I love most: the LFO. Playing with spleen or depth to create low dull, round, and to abyssal depths.

    the OCCAZ is 150 euros. No hesitation, get open.

    Level CHARACTERISTICS, TRS is complete notament input and output RCA phono to double or online. enter into the jack are symtriques.

    UTILIZATION

    Manuel trs clear and prcis. Anyway it is a filter, it's not complicated to use!
    Trs easy to use for someone adjacent state of the filter. trs grip a quick beginners.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The filter is clean trs 12 db / oct. The sound is clear and prcis. to mark the end, push the rsonnance, that sounds good, but still the trs own. Note that if you push too far the rsonnace, the filter comes into self oscillation, very practical for the effects of all kinds.

    In 24 db / oct, the filter switches to mono, the sound becomes warmer, the rsonnace most brands, but have become a bit less prcis, which are made in color charm :-) a little ... I would say "mysterious" ... it sounds vintage.

    Note the saturation stage. are quite used on synths, bass and percussions. But do not expect a big distortion of Sherman! it's more than a fuzz overdrive effect. Global Warming is really the sound, the apparent medium, the rabotquot are acute, but the sound is really a vintage twist to it! Listen to the disco with the saturation at a minimum, we believe it really!

    Hi-pass is very sharp (in 12 db) I like, and the mild low pass in the end.

    the envelope follower is exploitable trs playing well with the cutoff and the depth of the effect, despite the lack of SETTING THE attack and release.

    trs modulations are complete, and allow a few prs anything and everything!

    Note also the various button "momentary" that can apply the effect only a short time.

    To note just a little dtail: lorqu'on plays with the knob "mix" refers to a strange pass between his line and the original sound. This species of hollow feeling is due to enter dphasage between the sound and the output (puique filter is composed of coils notament, which gnre of important dphasages) ... c'tait just remanrque.

    9 for the sound and the possibilities of the machine .. especially considering the price!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I, unwanted for some months and I can not do without! software filters that I used until now do I use the Ides Baucher's more, then I work with the AC Filter Fatcory, which sounds much better than what n'impoorte plug in! I IT CAN BE USED for the House, which remains clean after all.
    I think one day busted a Sherman, a big fat analog filter or a Mutator ... Filter factory but I would keep still!

    Is a good filter rsons everything from classic. It consists of three parts diffrent:

    - Some distortion effect efficient trs (call by fuzz)

    - A central part containing the filter section (frquency / rsonnances on diffrent frquences> lowpass, highpass, bandpass and notch).

    - PART THREE The LFO sincronisable as MIDI or tap tempo.

    >> The master is also fully adjustable.

    Each part has a button "engage" (on / off) or start to cut the effect you want (disto-filtering-lfo). It's very practical to live or listen at once sound "naked" without effect, for example when the composition or a mix.

    The connection is correct, among jack / RCA, midi in / out / truth ... Everything you need,…

    The connection is correct, among jack / RCA, midi in / out / truth ... Everything you need, nothing more.

    It is important to note that this filter is not analog, but numrique.

    UTILIZATION

    I live in is primarily used by applying the effect dirrectement via my console mix, it can also happen to use it on a rhythm loop or other before saving on my sampler, but much rarer.
    For that, I mean the work of the studio component, more pos and requiring less time to express my akai rel I prfre MFC42 which I find much less flexible than ELECTRIX.

    SOUND QUALITY

    That's all bonement of the atomic bomb! It sounds like a prsque annalogique! It trsrussi, trs user friendly, you turn and go three buttons you can not t'arrter. I personally always want to touch it when I do a live!
    It is able to tweak a synth lead or rhythm of a crasis without the Touf, little breath, is trying ladopter.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It is beautiful trs, trs ergonomically sound is great, and trs intuitive, given the price of BCAN (it is found more than occasionally) better not do without!

    My advice: if you want a filter live east filterfactory choose one, if it is more for studio work, take a Akai MFC42 (I can compare the 2 I).
    Of course it's my personal opinion, and I have no point of comparison with a sherman filterbank because I did not (the next investment?)

    I'm crazy for this little green gadget and I do not spare it for the world!

    The Electrix Filter Factory is an analog piece of outboard gear that has 1/4 inch connections as well as MIDI connections.  The unit is rack mountable and will take up two rack spaces.

    UTILIZATION

    The make up of the Electrix Filter Factory is pretty easy to follow, but there is a lot of room to play around with here since there are a number of different sections each containing their own parameters.  The are sections for buzz, stereo filter, and LFO, each with own parameters - and there are a good amount of them.  It will take a few minutes to get used to how all of the parameters work, but everything is pretty self explanatory as long as you know the terminology generally involved…

    SOUND QUALITY

    The sounds that are possible with Electrix Filter Factory are extremely diverse, but no matter how you set the parameters it has a warm and realistic tone.  I have used this device for all sorts of applications including vocals, electric guitars, keyboards, and anything else that I might want to experiment with.  While this isn't a device that is a necessity by any means, it offers a lot of options and is capable of getting some really interesting and cool sounds.  This isn't a typical filter device and as long as you know this going in, you're going to have a lot of fun using it.


    OVERALL OPINION

    I've been using the Electrix Filter Factory for about three years or so and I'm definitely a fan of this.  I've liked all of the outboard gear that I've used made by Electrix as they offer an interesting take on effects.  This an extremely versatile piece of gear and will certainly bring a lot to the table for those looking to experiment with filtering.  The price is definitely reasonable and makes it a suitable item for any studio owner.  While I can't say I would recommend this to everyone as it isn't an essential, if you are looking to spice things up a bit, definitely check out the Electrix Filter Factory.
