Hi there!
There are a couple of modules/features that I can't really figure out. Could anyone help me and answer some questions?
- FILTER - even with RESONANCE all the way down, filter sweeps are really resonant. When adding RESONANCE, the signal gets a little quieter, with a liiiiiitle bit of resonance added. It sounds good, but: is it intentional? Is this just how the wasp filter works? - NYLE FILTER - it's other way around. I haven't been able to find the spot, where the "resonant filter sweeps" are possible. It's either no resonance or self-oscillating. Is it intentional? - ENV - with sustain turned off, ATTACK knob doesn't work: when ATTACK is more than 0, the envelope does not trigger. Is it intentional? Also, can you explain why that happens? - LFO - is there a way to modulate frequency via CV? - LOGIC - there's an inverter built in, but I'm not really sure how it works. I tried to send an envelope through it to modulate the filter frequency - I thought the envelope will substract the amount, but the outcome was normal, as the inversion never happened. Is it just to invert gate signals?
Thanks in advance, I'll try to return the favor somehow!

Filters: Both should work like you describe. They are special filters and not meant to be clean or "normal". I assume there will be another filter module available down the road that is a bit less characterful. ENV: That's a typical behavior of many envelopes and there are special ones which will always finish the attack phase even on short triggers. In this module's case, you have to switch sustain on for attacks and send it gates. That's off the top of my head. I might have to check this again. LFO: You can only sync it, meaning it will reset the phase when triggered. LOGIC: Only inverts gates or triggers ... I think. I only used it for that and haven't tried it with CV. There are two CV inverters on the 2ATT/CV module (although they're not shown in the module graphic in the online store). Edit: if you have certain wishes for modules, go ahead and post them in the pinned future module wish list thread

Wow, thanks! With that support I'm certain AE Modular will quickly outgrow expectations. I do have 2ATT/CV module, should that inverse the envelope so that it's negative?

Some additional comments: The "basic" resonance of the WASP filter is usual with rhis filter type; I already have designed a "standard" SVF filter that is more neutral (or "less characterful" as NightMachines wrote), the standard rack will contain one of this and one wasp filter in the near future. The NYLE filter has a quite sudden and intense start of the resonance at approx. 60-70% of the resonance knob, this is the behaviour as it should be. ENV: NightMachines explanation is correct; a new development is a more advanced envelope, where a trigger pulse can start the whole cycle, even with longer attacks, and also will offer loop possibilities.

LFO: You can only sync it, meaning it will reset the phase when triggered. small note on this, on the first revision of LFO, the sync was not working. this drove me crazy the other day... I had sync working on 2 of my lfos, but not on the other, very confused... ... then I remembered, I added two new lfos recently - and viola the mystery was solved, re-patched , and all as good
