Comparisons

  • Rev2's 4-pole Moog ladder filter is less bright than Rev1's 2-pole, but smooth and fat; it loses volume with increased resonance.

    Source

User experience

  • Rev3 filter self-oscillates earlier, sounding similar to the Minilogue filter, favored for vowel-like sounds and SFX.

    Source
  • The Rev1 filter is gain compensated with resonance, offering a punchier, brighter attack compared to other revisions.
