Product Detail
The MF-101S Lowpass Filter is a brilliant re - creation of the classic Moog MF - 101 analog effects pedal. The original 1998 MF - 101 hardware had two key modular functions: a classic all - analog 4 - pole Lowpass Filter and an envelope follower to add dynamic motion to the filtered sound. Designed by Bob Moog's team, it was derived from the original Moog modular synthesizers, capable of processing various audio sources like guitar, voice, and synthesizers. The MF - 101S recreates the warm and lively sound of the original, offering an organic musical experience. With CV interconnectivity, stereo functionality, an extended feature set, multi - instance running, and presets, it caters to modern digital creators. The MF - 101S also has unique features not on the hardware, such as an ENVELOPE that can recreate the original MONO envelope or create two separate left - right envelope followers in STEREO. The STEREO RESPONSE shapes the envelope follower curve according to input dynamics. It offers CV Inputs for Filter Cutoff, Resonance, Envelope Amount, and Mix, and can attenuate these modulations.
Using the MF - 101S Lowpass Filter is quite straightforward. First, connect your audio source, which can be a guitar, a voice input, or a synthesizer, to the pedal. You can adjust the Filter Cutoff, Resonance, Envelope Amount, and Mix using the provided CV Inputs to get the sound you want. The ENVELOPE feature allows you to choose between a MONO setting like the original or create separate left and right envelope followers in STEREO. The STEREO RESPONSE can be tweaked based on the incoming dynamics of your input. When using multiple instances, make sure your system can handle the load. As for maintenance, keep the pedal in a dry and clean environment. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If there are any issues, check the connections first. If problems persist, it's best to contact Moog's customer service.
