I'm yosi, the maintainer of Chillout with Beats.

PSP Ultimate Modular CollectionIt's pretty good so I'll write an article.

I wanted to write a PSP nitro SVF, but functionallyPSP nitro BQFSince it is the same as, fold it at the end.

Since the curve of Resonance is different, the tendency of sound is different, but the usage is the same.

PSP nitro Formant

Overview

Looking for a module to creatively manipulate source audio formants? Check out the PSP nitroFormant! The PSP nitroFormant transforms the PSP N2O's flexible dual formant filters into a modular format, providing two separate filters with independent pitch controls for each filter and the ability to morph between them.The module also features master I / O gain, frequency and resonance control, and the PSP's well-known softSAT saturation algorithm. The PSP nitro Formant also takes full advantage of the modular format.It provides independent CV inputs for pitch A and B, resonance, frequency, and morph control, as well as master stereo control voltage-style inputs and outputs. The creative possibilities of the PSP nitroFormant are almost endless!

Commentary

If you simply use this module as an effect from your DAW, you can connect In and Out as shown below.

The nitro Formant is equipped with two filters that can change the formant, and can manipulate 2 types of vowels.

Delay LamaYou can also make a sound like this.

Explanation of main parameters

The thickness of the formant in "Pitch"? (Vocal cords?), "Freq" to adjust the pitch, and "Vowl" to adjust the vowels.

"Pitch" seems to be male at the minimum, female at the center, and children at the maximum.

Even if you change it normally, you will not feel any change, but if you morph A and B, the effect will appear.

The "Freq" frequency is common to A and B.

It can be changed from 0.5 times to 2 times.

"Reso" seems to work to emphasize formants in Resonance.

"Vowl" is equipped with 16 types of vowels.

"Morph" can morph A and B filters.

When morphed, the change becomes noticeable.

Formant filters are likely to be used more like projectiles, but you can change the texture with the following riffs, for example.

I think you can create a slightly different atmosphere.

The formant filter may be interesting to hang on the base.

However, I have the impression that all PSP modules are well made.

What makes me happy is that most of the parameters can be modulated by CV.

I don't understand the meaning of not being able to control CV with modular.
(Voltage Modular drums weren't very good and I was pretty disillusioned)

Just $ 15Remote ControlIt seems that you can control the CV with any knob when you buy.

I will investigate this area a little more and write a separate article.
