Resonant filter

FilterFreak is a bundle of two RTAS, HTDM and Audiosuite plug-ins, each with a host of easily accessible and highly tweakable parameters that can be used to create some totally awesome filtering combinations. Special attention has been given to recreating a filter that both sounds and responds like a real analog filter. When you overload the input to FilterFreak it won't "freak out" but instead will saturate the way a normal filter would in the analog world.

Features :
- Lowpass, bandpass, highpass and notch filter mode
- Adjustable slope filters (up to 48 dB per Octave)
- Analog style saturation for added warmth or serious distorsion
- LFO, ADSR, random, and enveloppe modulation
- Over 200 Professionnaly designed presets
- Synchronize to MIDI beat clock or tap tempo
- Drum-machine style rhythmic modulation
- Fully customizable LFO shapes
