Hi- found this on the Yahoo Voyager group.
By BrianK
MuRF -
- Eight filters set at intervals (think like the bands on a graphic EQ, but bandpass resonant filters; each one "passes" a thin band of sound).
- The filters can be "sequenced" (they call them patterns) so they run forward, backward, different preset orders (nothing specifically random) and a mode where they are all ON at one time (this makes very interesting tonal shaping - telephone sounds, and we got THE "Brian May" Queen guitar sound with one setting!). Raising/lowering the sliders gives EACH chosen sequence hundreds of options of sound patterns.
- As the sequence chosen plays - that thin band of sound passes through and starts to decay away - the Decay is a knob that can be set short (very choppy) or long, so it rings over the next few filter stages too. CV controllable Decay.
- The speed is adjustable and CV controllable. There is discussion whether it should be a Tap input sync (for live playing to match other's tempo's) or Step input - to trigger each next stage with a voltage or clock.
- Mix (dry/filters) is also CV controlled. Good for bass players where you don't want to lose the low end...
- LFO on-off slightly moves each band in the group (they all move together, no easy way to make them independant) and adds a shimmering sound; There is also a sweep input CV jack to make this an External control thing from your sequencer, LFO, S/H etc.
- Sound - kind of like sequences of stepped filters, cascading phasers, short blips of electronic notes, or underwater curtains of sound - really lots of DIFFERENT sounds it makes. It is a LOT more flexible than a LowPass filter, for example.
Around the $400 range...
