Beat Effects and Cuts for Filters

Postby sudodj on 31 Mar 2014, 09:20

Hi,
The cuts for the dedicated hi/lo filters (and ESPECIALLY the HPF) aren't nearly as steep as for this in the Effects module, which makes them pretty well useless for filter mixing. These should filter in the same range as the equivalent HPF/LPF in the effects module. It would make them a lot more useful.

I see that the delay effect is locked to 1/2 beat. It would be very useful if for this and other beat effects we could use them the same way you use them on a DJM (1/4,/1/2,3/4, etc.)

The new filters on 3.1.0 RC are a great improvement over the old ones, however I'd also like a full filter 'kill' as this is the usual behavior on various hard- and software. :cool:

I get kills with EQ only but not the bi-filter, tested with internal/simple stereo.

When using it on the low pass (resp. hi pass) side, trebles (resp. bass) get killed.
Don't get what you mean then.

I'm talking full filter kill (mute) when in the extreme position. This behaviour makes for handier 'filter mixing' so you don't need to use additional eq or crossfader/line fader at all.

How the bi-filter could be useful it it killed at the extreme positions?
!?
That's definitely not its purpose..

So you want the filter to operate as follows:
Filter set to extreme left- Passes all Low frequencies and kills Hi.
Filter set to middle-- Passes all frequencies
Filter set to extreme right-- Passes all Hi frequencies and kills Lows.

Not that I can provide the solution but I find the conversation interesting so I am just trying to understand your entry.
