Using Two MF-101 for Stereo?

Ok, maybe one day. First I have to get the second LPF.

@latgid.

I see. I always thought people had 2 Shermans for stereo filtering.

If you can find a used Akai MFC-42, that’s a great stereo (or mono) filter. Much softer than Shermans, but have some great options. On the downside, you can’t trigger the envelope via audio, only by a MIDI note on message.

There’s one on eBay right now for $385 USD.
What I like about the Sherman is that it does extreme effects. Does the Akai do that?

this one sounds very nice too.

The MFC tends to do much softer/cleaner filtering. The bandpass and notch filters are amazingly “buttery” and you have the separate phaser too. It’s resonance starts self-oscillation at about halfway on the knob (depends on which filter pole you have it on). The distortion mode is pretty rough.

The Shermans (I have both MkI and MkII) are much, much better for distortion/FM/high res sweeps etc.. Can you afford two for stereo processing? Or could you do two takes in post production? Most of the knobs send/receive MIDI, so you could tweak on a track and play back the settings on another pass?

Btw, have you seen the Rodec?
