Erica Synths Announces Graphic Resonant Filterbank and Expander
Powerful new module offers 10-band filter control: a resonant secret weapon for your modular rack
Riga, Latvia, September 3, 2024 — Erica Synths announces its new Graphic Resonant Filterbank and Expander, two new modules that offer powerful new sound shaping options for any modular synth rack. Both modules are available for pre-order now, and are scheduled to begin shipping next week.
The Graphic Resonant Filterbank (FB) is a ten-band analogue filterbank with digital control over each bands’ boost or cut. Each band can be controlled individually via CV or manually, while complex control configurations turn the filterbank into an unconventional multimode filter and even an instrument in its own right when played with various resonance settings. The Expander module (works exclusively with the Graphic Resonant Filterbank and is available separately) provides hands-on adjustment of boost and cut for all bands.
Meantime, Erica Synths also announces its companion, designed to operate in parallel: the Graphic Resonant Filterbank EXPANDER. This module provides hands-on control and adjustment of all bands’ boost and cut - without need to select the bands via buttons. This makes sound design with the Graphic Resonant Filterbank more tactile and intuitive. Please note that the Expander works exclusively with the Graphic Resonant Filterbank.
