Title: Possible to calibrate the filter?
Post by: dermich on December 18, 2013, 09:23:43 pm

I'm really loving my MicroBrute, but my filter doesn't seem to be calibrated exactly. When I switch to high-pass mode and turn the cutoff all the way up, I still get a bit of audio signal. It takes me to total silence when in low-pass mode with the cutoff all the way down.

Can I fix this myself?

Look at this thread: http://www.arturia.com/evolution/smf/index.php?topic=14538.0 -> Side 2

I got my second Microbrute today. Will went to store again tomorrow. Early bird catches the worm, early adopter catches bugs.  >:(

I don't think this answer is related.

By design the HP filter does not completely close, only the LP does. So you can't calibrate it.

Is it possible that this depends on calibrating the modwheel? Since I've done that I was not able to trigger Microbrute to play forever.  Before calibrating  it was easy. I will test it a little bit. Hm.

For the sequencer it's an option is Microbrute Connection: "hold"
for Gate hold you can check this:

I think, you get me wrong. I will try to make a video of it. If I do Highpass, Cutoff 50%, Resonance Max and then playing with amount and rate of lfo it sometimes hangs up and plays forever without sequenzer. Since I've calibrated the Modwheel I was not able to trigger this. I will try to kick it when I'm at home.

Thank you Bruno - that is exactly the answer I needed. This is definitely my favorite synth I've bought in ages.
