i'll be devil's advocate: if we're talking ARP filters, why not go
all the way and give them SLIDERS!
some of you will hopefully agree that sliders/faders are far more
ergonomic and ultimately musical than knobs. when i was forming a
modular strategy awhile back, i went as far as calling Paul Schreiber/
MOTM and asking if he'd be interested in building me a filter box
with two sets of controls, knobs + sliders, that'd be switchable...
in essence having two sets of cutoff/Q controls and the ability to
switch between settings.
sounded pretty cool to me, Paul didn't agree. ARP's were the first
'pro' analog synths i had (2 Axxe's + a Quadra) and i'll always miss
being able to throw the sliders around.
yeah, i know good sliders/faders are expensive and get dirty and all
that good stuff.... that's why i decided to go Doepfer and wait for
my fantasy filter box. still, you gotta admit they're fun.
i love the 'exotic' module threads.. sorry i've nothing else to offer
at this time
cheers
