Frequently Asked Questions

It's remarkably close tonally, capturing the essence of the MS20 filter but with a slightly cleaner overall presentation.
While capable, its strength lies in more aggressive sounds; subtle filtering is possible but not its primary purpose.
The CV input is a direct connection, no attenuation or scaling is provided – you'll need external modules for that.
