Hi EU-hedz,

I figured out some interesting sound design "math" last night while playing around with using the E12 BD retrig as a sawtooth oscillator. The actual interesting part has more to do with the filter + SRR parameters, but I digress...

If you want to get a vocal-sounding ‘for­mant fil­ter’ effect out of a synth that only has a nor­mal low­pass fil­ter, you can take advan­tage of a quirk of sample-rate reduc­tion effects to gen­er­ate mul­ti­ple “mir­rored” fil­ter sweeps through the won­der of aliasing.

For more info, sound clips, sonogram images, and a .syx file with the results for MD, check out the full post here:

Happy voxing,

Cool discovery! Looking forward to checking this out at home.

FWIW, you might also post the sysex to the Files section of this forum as well.

Very cool. Nils uploaded a sysex a while ago and there is a kit in there called Horny (which is pretty mindblowing). In that he gets some similar effects, but I did not have an understanding/explanation of this until now. Nice job.
