TC Electronic Studio Konnekt 48 - Manual (Page 32)

Studio Konnekt 48 comes with ResFilter, a plug-in that offers state-of-the-art filtering effects. Throw in resonance, 6, 12
and 24 dB slopes for even more stunning sounds. Its inter-communication-bus facilitates controlling and tweaking multiple
plug-ins and parameters from one plug-in, cross-fading between two instances of the plug-ins etc.
Basic operation
The ResFilter integrates as a pure VST/AU filter and does therefore NOT open from the TC Near control panel like the
Fabrik plug-ins.
• First select the filter type (lo-pass or hi-pass) and the slope.
• Then adjust the resonance amount. the resonance will occur at the filter’s cut-off frequency. Please note that a filter
with a slope set to 6dB, does not have a resonance.
• The ResFilter is controlled by an envelope follower which has depth, attack and decay time controls. Attack and decay
time define the enveloper follower’s responsiveness. Depth defines the amount of modulation. Try the different presets
to get an idea of their modulation capabilities.
Instance name
As several instances of the ResFilter can be opened at
the same time you may find it useful to name each
instance. Place the cursor and type in your preferred
name.
Filter
Cutoff
Sets the cutoff frequency for the selected filter type
(Lo-Cut or Hi-Cut).
Resonance
A resonance filer boosts frequencies just prior to the
selected Low or Hi-Cut filter. The higher the setting, the
more pronounced the filter effect. The resonance is set in
percent.
Beware that extreme settings at loud levels may
damage your speakers.
Type & Slope
Select between Lo or Hi-Cut filter types. The steepness of
the curve is set by the “Slope” parameter. Select between
6, 12 or 24 dB slope. The higher the dB the steeper the
slope:
6 dB slope 24 dB Slope
Output
The SoftSat section provides more drive for the resonance
filters output, allowing you to create a warm-sounding
“analog” distortion.
Softsat on/off
On/off switch for the Softsat section.
Damp
On/off for the hi-frequency attenuation.
Mute
ResFilter mute. In mute mode the source signal is still
passed to the output.
Drive
Range: -100 to 100
Sets the amount of drive for the soft-saturation.
Output
Range: -100 to 100
Sets the output level.
