Hi Jo,

which would be the corresponding Q value for the peak filter to standard EQ's like Voxengo ones or from other manufactures???

I know they are adjustable in others too, but there are mostly the same default values...

To be honnest i don't know. I assume it can be measured using a frequency plot?

The Q value for the Peak Filter would be the resonance.
It works nearly like a normal parametric EQ. For a wide EQ curve use a low resonance for narrower peaks/dips increase rosonance.
I try to avoid settings above 2.5 for resonance as the filter becomes noticable resonant.

For your own experiments, create a patch with the noise genetator as oscillator going direct into an amplifier with a gate/organ envelope.
Then add the factory param EP after this 'synth'
Use a FFT to see the behaviour.
Voxengo Span works well if you remove the build in tilt. With the default setting the noise inceases by 12dB/oct.
An alternative is Stillwells Schope (free trial with no time limit). This shows the noise as a flat curve and you can see how the EQ works.

I hope this helps.

This was the part of interest for me, thx...

PS: Jo, we already talked about the resonance, which is way too high in the filter...seems to be another good reason to have a look at this topic 8)

In M4 the resonance parameter has been finetuned.

Really???

Can't wait... :love:
