The Macropod Variable Bandwidth VCF can sit alongside Eurorack’s most popular filter modules and not only replicate their functionality, but exceed it! Decked out and fully-featured, this multi-faceted Voltage Controlled Filter (VCF) could become a crucial part of your modular setup.
A variable bandwidth VCF uses a band-pass filter control that can adjust the width of the frequency spectrum coming through. If you need to tighten a rumbling bass sound, or take the harshness out of some hi-hats, a VCF such as this is just what you need. Find the exact tone and timbre that you are looking for, or use the filters controls as tools to modulate textures using CV!
The beautiful black, white, and gold faceplate will look gorgeous in your rack, with its neat design giving a distinctive and sleek appearance. A lot of research and design work has gone into this module – the faceplate design, the layout of the interface components, and even the way the circuit manipulates your sounds.
Where the Macropod truly shines is in its unique additional features. This space-saving solution packs in not only a variable band filter; but resonance, onboard notch output, and a ‘squared-off’ distortion output. These additions make the Macropod a bit of a modular powerhouse, able to fill many roles in your system in a single module.
