3.1.3. Analog Filter
Arturia's analog synthesizers are famous for their filters, and the Analog Filter on the
MiniFreak is no exception. Its warm and clean timbre is adding some character to the digital
Oscillators with a few twists of a knob.
• Type selects the filter mode: Low Pass, Band Pass, or High Pass.
• Cutoff and Resonance set the filter's
cutoff frequency
(or simply
cutoff
) and the
resonance of the filter at that frequency.
• Env/Velo sets the amount of envelope modulation on the cutoff, or how much the
keyboard velocity controls that envelope amount. Because cutoff modulation can
be positive or negative, the knob has a center detent for 0 modulation.
We'll go into more detail in the Analog Filter chapter [p.40].
3.1.4. Digital Effects
The Digital Effects section is quite similar in operation to the Oscillators section:
• Select chooses whether the controls affect FX1, FX2, or FX3.
• Type/Sub selects the Type of effect, or the Subtype – for example, there are
six Subtypes of the Phaser FX Type, each with its own character. Clicking the
encoder enables or disables the selected FX.
• Time, Intensity, and Amount have different functions depending on the Type of
effect selected.
Lastly on the top section of the panel's controls, you can find the Master knob which controls
the overall volume of the MiniFreak's main and headphone outputs.
There's a lot to learn about these powerful effects – check out the
Digital Effects chapter [p.8].
