ARIES AR-327 VOLTAGE-CONTROLLED MULTI-MODE FILTER MODULE
The Aries AR-327 is a multi-mode voltage-controlled filter with simultaneous outputs. This filter is simultaneously a low pass, high pass, band pass and notch / peak filter. The toggle switch on the front panel selects a notch or peak response from the first output jack.
There are 3 audio inputs into the module, one of which has its own independent attenuator. The filter frequency is manually controlled by the front panel control and voltage-controlled from any and all of the control inputs. The resonance is both manually and voltage-controllable and one of the 2 resonance control inputs has an associated input attenuator. This filter incorporates dynamic Q limiting, which allows for extremely high resonance without oscillation and without filter overloading.
A sophisticated module, this filter can produce phasing effects and other extremely complex timbres. A number of AR-327 VCFs can be patched in parallel to provide voltage controlled parametric equalization.

FEATURES:
• Voltage-Controlled Highpass / Bandpass / Lowpass / Notch or Peak outputs simultaneously available
• Voltage-Controlled "Q" (Resonance) from 1/2 to 512
(Bandwith from 2 octave to 1/30 of a semitone)
• Phasing sounds from swept Notch output
• New Peak output similar to studio parametric equalizer
• Extremely useful for simulating natural musical instrument resonances
• Exclusive new "Dynamic Q Compression" prevents overload and distortion, even at high resonance and full signal level
• Precise 1 Volt / Octave control inputs for tracking filter applications, such as spectral analysis, harmonic synthesis, etc.
