Just wondering what everybody likes when it comes to filters, the Toneboosters latest release has got me comparing filter plugs and I can't just quite decide

I already have soundtoys Filterfreak, Fabfilters Simplon and Micron, various free ones and Cleansweep Pro, but apart from Filterfreak which is limited none of them offer the automation like the ones linked above do, I know there's also Fabfilter Volcano2 but I'm not really a fan of the UI so not really considering that one. Are there any others I missed apart from the 3 linked ?

Not found anything I like as much as Etch which is a shame as it's been abandoned.

All of it sounds good but the comb filter cannot be replaced by anything I've tried.

TAL’s filter is nice, especially for the price.

Really depends what kind(s) of filter you’re after, and what features too.

Ohmforce Quad Frohmage. More automation and modulation than you can shake a stick at.

WOW 2, Runciter

I really like using Decimort 2 as "filter", for other uses, u-he Runciter seems to be my favourite.
I also have Volcano 2, but rarely use it. Good tho

The Drop has extremely good lfo capabilities, it can be triggered by midi pitch, it can treat transients as 'triggers' for adsr envelopes, or do envelope/level follower stuff, it can do gates and things, it also has a 'glide' feature which smooths out DAW automation.

Hornet Filtersolo has two lfos and envelope generators. LP, HP, BP & BS and an analog simulation stage.

Filters for what purpose ?

Bifilter 2 and PhiltaXL are my go to for cuts and sweeps etc.

Filterbank3 is my goto for distortions

I have others that make interesting sound changes like Etch.

Tone2 BiFilter
Tone2 FilterBank3
Waves Metafilter
And occasionally the three filters in the AIR FX collection.

I think I got all except the AIR ones for free and have been sticking with them as they are completely satisfactory for my needs.

Filters, what do you prefer
