7) The Filters’ resonant frequencies can be shifted up and down by a

small amount to create an effect similar to phasing. Figure 8 shows

a graph that portrays the results of shifting a resonant filter’s center

frequency. In the MIDI MuRF this can be done two ways, depending on

the position of the LFO slider switch. When the slider is in the "OFF"

position, the filters’ center frequencies can be shifted by an expression

pedal (such as the Moog EP-2) or CV plugged into the LFO/SWEEP

Jack. To hear how this works, return to the basic setup described in

Figure 5. Plug a Moog EP-2 into the LFO/SWEEP control input. Then,

as you play into the MIDI MuRF, rock the EP-2 back and forth. You will

hear the filters’ frequencies shift with the motion of the pedal.

Figure 7 - BASS Frequency Response

Figure 8 - Filter Frequency Shift

When the LFO slide

switch is in the "ON"

position, a LFO (Low

Frequency Oscillator)

shifts the frequencies of

the filters as a group up

and down automatically.
The LFO is a sine wave. The LFO rate is initially determined by the

pattern. An expression pedal (EP-2 or equivalent) or CV connected to the

LFO/SWEEP jack can modify the LFO Rate from .08 Hz to 20 Hz.

To hear the effect of the LFO on the MIDI MuRF’s filters, return to

the basic setup outlined in figure 5, then move the LFO slider switch to

"ON". Now as you play through the MuRF, you’ll hear the filters swept

up and down automatically. To change the speed of the LFO, plug a

Moog EP-2 expression pedal into the LFO/SWEEP Control Input. The

EP-2 can now slow down or speed up the LFO.
