Dual Filters can run in series, parallel, or side by side (individual for each oscillator). Filter 1 features a multi-mode filter covering 24 dB low pass, 12 dB low pass, 12 dB high and band pass modes, with the ability to continuously “morph” between these states. Filter 2 offers 12 dB versions of the low, high and band pass modes, plus a unique comb filter. A single R3 Program consists of two complete Timbres — each is a complete synth sound including dual Insert effects (30 effect types) and assignable EQ.
