MF-106 High Pass Filter
Please oh please oh please........
Please Moog build the definitive High Pass Moogerfooger!
there is no MF-106 ......
I've got Low pass filters (MF-101)
I've got band pass filter (Wah Pedals)
the only high pass filter I have is on my Allen and Heath Xone92 mixer,
how about a Moogerfooger High Pass Filter!!!!!

Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
The MF101 can do a highpass filter. You need a CP251. You mix the dry and filtered signal, and reverse the phase on one of them. This makes the passband signal out of phase, so mixing them cancels out the passband of both dry and filtered signal leaving only highpass from the dry signal. This trick goes back to the modular days in the 1960s.

First time I heard about it though. Thanks MC !!MC wrote:The MF101 can do a highpass filter. You need a CP251. You mix the dry and filtered signal, and reverse the phase on one of them.

Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
Just tried out the reverse phase highpass filter trick. Works great! I love getting new patch ideas to play off of, thanks!

Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
I had read that on Clavia Modular's forums, but I ws not aware this very technique could work in the analogue realm.
Maybe that's because the phase inversion technique was properly digital, can't remember.
Anyway, I'll try that out too, thanks!!

Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
Excited to try this, thanks! So many ideas just came from this patch idea, not only high pass filtering, but using the reverse phase. Always knew it was there, just never toyed with it yet!!!!
Vibration emanates from all things, even nothing. Using awareness to translate vibration into "music" is something that I am whole heartedly grateful for.
Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
Well, I am trying to do it but I don't know exactly how to reverse the phase. Could you please tell me how to patch it?MC wrote:The MF101 can do a highpass filter. You need a CP251.

Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
A 106 High pass is not a bad idea. Not sure what the market for such a pedal is but a bunch of us would sure appreciate it.
Moog has just finished making those modular clones for the 5 rich and famous people (if they were not famous before, they are now : ) so why not take some of those discovered gems and drop them into a limited edition line of Foogers.
Doing the full Modular thing will cost money and be risky, and I'm talking about spinning up power standards and connector and mounting issues, the tech support alone will be a nightmare for Moog and their guys are pretty busy most of the time [it reminds me where I work; not enough people to manage a growing list of gear to support], but my point is that if they drop a few modules into MoogerFooger clothing, and adjust input and output levels to match the rest of the Foogers and the genera Guitar or synth audience, they will do well to charge us even a premium.
Bob never got a resonant High Pass working to his satisfaction, at least not in the form of a 904b so that would be a nice add-on if it could be done without destroying the integrity of the original design.
I know that the Oberheim SEM has one of the most rich filters, in it's sweepable glory; Moog has been missing this and while you might argue, they aren't missing anything [and you would be right], adding a High Pass and the resulting Band Pass via Filter coupler would greatly enhance the sonic spectrum.

Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
I tried out this idea last night, this is how I patched it:MC wrote:The MF101 can do a highpass filter. You need a CP251. You mix the dry and filtered signal, and reverse the phase on one of them. This makes the passband signal out of phase, so mixing them cancels out the passband of both dry and filtered signal leaving only highpass from the dry signal. This trick goes back to the modular days in the 1960s.
Sub Phatty out --> cp251 mult in
mult out 1 --> MF101 audio in --> MF101 audio out --> cp251 mixer input 3 in
mult out 2 --> cp251 attenuator 1 in --> cp251 attenuator out (knob turned to -5 to reverse the phase) --> cp251 mixer input 4 in
The + output of the mixer then went directly to my headphones via a headphone amp.
Here are some considerations:
- Using the mult for audio results in very high noise that is added to the sound - not optimal.
- Be sure to have the offset knob in its neutral position. If not, the sound is altered and there is even more noise added.
- I found the range of the cutoff knob (fully closed = no high pass filtering, fully open = maximum high pass filtering) to be quite small. In the fully open position there still were quite a lot of low frequencies.
- You can`t work with resonance - adding resonance results in more low frequencies being added.
I grinned happily when I first heard my Sub Phatty being high pass filtered, so this is definitely a great new patch idea. But it simply can`t replace a dedicated high pass filter in my opinion.
I then tried to get resonance by adding the cp251 +mixer output (via mult on a second cp251) to the mixer input 1. It emphasized the higher frequencies, but sounded more like drive than resonance. When the knob controlling the mixer input 1 level was past the 2 o`clock setting, the output went completely crazy with high noises.
Did someone get (even) "better" results with a different patch?

Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
Interesting note: that is exactly how highpass is implemented in the Voyager. I saw the schematics.radioland wrote:But it simply can`t replace a dedicated high pass filter in my opinion.

Re: MF-106 High Pass Filter
I wish there was a way to isolate just the highpass in the Voyager. It can get close some settings with the spacing resonance and pole settings, but not quite
