Mutable Instruments - Ripples (2020)
- Order number: 200118
- Depth: 25
Voltage controlled analog multimode filter with four outputs, one of them with integrated VCA. Mutable Instruments call the module a "liquid filter" and that's true for the sound, nice and warm.
Multimode filter with a 4-pole low pass, a 2-pole low pass and a 2-pole bandpass, all simultaneously available on separate outputs. There is also a 4-pole lowpass output with integrated VCA (GAIN input and LP4/VCA output), which makes it easy to create a very compact subtractive synthesizer voice.
Self oscillation is possible in all four modes and the LP4 output produces a clear sine wave. Unlike many 4-pin filters, the filter does not get quieter with stigenic resonance; this volume compensation brings a slight tonal coloration with the character of Roland SH/ Jupiter filters.
There are two CV inputs for the cutoff frequency, one fixed with 1V/octave and one (FM input) with polarizer. The resonance is also voltage controllable.
The 2020 version has a second audio input that can be used either as a distorting input or as a line level input. In addition, the new version has a hipass output, a switch for the edge steepness of the lowpass filter and is visually adapted to the newer modules from Mutable Instruments.
