Steve’s MS-22 specifications released

As the rev. 2 prototype of Steve’s MS-22 is nearing its final form, I am happy to release its specifications :

  • General features
    • Dual VCF inspired by the Korg MS-20 OTA filter
    • Low-pass into high-pass configuration
    • Innovative modulation matrix allows CV control over all parameters
    • Cut-off frequencies can be linked, resulting in a band pass filter with controlable bandwidth
    • Bipolar monitoring LEDS for the LP, HP, resonance and gain CV signals
    • One of the best functionality-to-size ratios in Eurorack with a width of 4 HP and a depth of 45 mm
  • Connections
    • Filter input
    • Filter output
    • Frequency CV input (FCV)
    • Auxiliary CV input (ACV)
  • Controls
    • LP cut-off frequency (“frequency”)
    • HP cut-off frequency / BP bandwidth (“spread”)
    • Resonance : from mild to screamy
    • Gain : from warm to asymmetrical saturation
    • LP Frequency CV (FCV) attenuator
    • Auxiliary CV (ACV) attenuator
    • LP-HP link switch : 0%, 50% or 100%
    • Modulation Matrix switches, routing ACV to HP cut-off / spread, Gain and resonance : +ACV, off, or -ACV (inverted)
    • Calibration trimmers for the HP and LP filter are available from the side of the module.
