Filter 2
The available parameters differ depending on the filter type you have selected here.
Filter 2 Type
The filters available for the AN-X are grouped into three types: LPF, HPF, and BPF. Settings: Thru, LPF24, LPF18, LPF12, LPF6, HPF24, HPF18, HPF12, HPF6, BPF12, BPF6
The sound becomes brighter as you raise the Cutoff Frequency, since more signals are passed by the filter.
The sound becomes darker as you lower the Cutoff Frequency, since signals are cut or blocked by the filter.
You can produce a distinctive “peaky” sound by raising the Resonance or boosting the signal level near the Cutoff Frequency.
This Filter Type is very popular and useful for producing classic synthesizer sounds.
