Sift by Arius Blaze.

Release date: 07-09-2019

This will be available for pre-order on our upcoming crowdfunding campaign. Keep an eye out in summer 2019. Sift is included in the large and small complete "Anthesis X, Y and Z" systems which will be available at the same time.

Shown here in gold. This will also be available in copper.

Sift is a multi-mode low pass filter. There are five modes selectable with touch-based switching which change the character - normal, noise cv integration on the cutoff, square wave replication at the input, extreme resonance overdrive and all modes combined. The gain control hits 100% at 12 o'clock and beyond that will completely crush an incoming signal while maintaining a balanced output level to turn the filter into a distortion.

We've included a vactrol on the output which, when plugged, cuts the output signal and only allows the signal to pass when it receives a voltage signal (trigger, gate, cv). This adds great character to the sound as it rings out the way only a vactrol does. This can also be used as a VCA when the filter is used as a sine wave oscillator.

Attenuable cv with light indication over all controls.
