One thing I did notice early on is that the distortion/overdrive part of the filter kicks in at quite a low input level, meaning that if you are looking for clean filtering or just a little 'edge' you really do have to be careful about your input levels. I compared them to some of my other favourite filter plug‑ins: on some sources the differences were clear, but on others I wouldn't have been able to decide between them. There's no description of the technical differences between these, but they do provide a number of variations in tone, and these are fundamentally good‑sounding filters, whatever option you choose. As well as having low‑pass, high‑pass and band‑pass types and selectable slopes of 12, 24 and 48 dB/octave, you have the choice of 11 different 'characters': FabFilter One, Smooth, Raw, Hard, Hollow, Extreme, Gentle, Tube, Metal, Easy Going and Clean. All three are heavily based upon FabFilter's, er, filters - and their highly flexible modulation architecture - but used in different ways.įabFilter are clearly proud of said filters, given that they named the company after them! And perhaps they have reason to be proud, given the extremely flexible nature of the filters in question.
Timeless 2 is a tape‑delay emulation, Twin 2 is their take on a virtual analogue synth, and Volcano 2 is a powerful multi‑mode filter. The extensive modulation options available in all the FabFilter plug‑ins are augmented in Twin 2 by X‑Y pads.įabFilter's powerful plug‑in suite brings us advanced modulation possibilities, filters with multiple personalities, and plenty of overdrive.įabFilter's Creative range comprises three plug‑ins.
