INTRODUCTION
W
elcome to the world of Electrix. We would like to thank you for purchasing FilterFactory, The Ultimate Stereo Resonant Filter for musicians, DJs, producers and engineers. FilterFactory is unique in its ease of use and its focus on directly filtering a
range of input signals from turntables to CD’S to Synths.
FilterFactory’s digitally controlled Analog filters were modeled after VCF’s (Voltage Controlled Filters) like those found in traditional Analog synthesizers. Use FilterFactory to re-mix your vinyl live. Just insert your FilterFactory between the turntable and the mixer and add your own filter sweeps, LFO’s and distorted signals to the mix. FilterFactory has a built in phono pre-amp, so you can plug in your turntable directly. This setup allows you to cue the effect before it goes to the house by using the cueing feature of your mixer. In the studio full MIDI implementation makes FilterFactory the perfect recording tool. You can play the FilterFactory live and capture your performance in a sequence.
FilterFactory’s unique future / retro case was designed to allow both desktop and rackmount installation. This concept makes FilterFactory’s control surface perfect for live performance and studio use.
" INSPECTION
In your Electrix box you should find:
• 1 Electrix FilterFactory
• 1 Manual
• 1 Rackmount kit
• 1 Warranty Card
• 1 EIC Power Cable (appropriate for your region)
If this is not the case then please call your local Electrix distributor, agent or dealer.

ote that there are no input or output controls. FilterFactory is set up to give you unity gain when bypassed or when the Mix control is at 0%. This means that signals running through
it are not boosted or reduced in gain. If you are using a line level input (as opposed to a turntable) set the output of your source so that FilterFactory’s Input Level LED doesn’t go Red all that often. Try to keep your levels in the green which is the optimum level for FilterFactory.
" Buzz Buzz sets the amount of distortion. The more buzz, the more distortion you will have.
Buzz will take you from subtle, at the farthest left, to heavy distortion at the farthest right. NOTE: Buzz will increase the level of your output signal substantially as you turn it up. Use the Trim control to get the level back to where you want it while the Buzz circuit is engaged.
" Trim: Sets the output level of the
Buzz circuit. This can be set anywhere from inaudible to extremely loud. Use with caution.
" Buzz Engage: Toggles the buzz
circuit in and out.
" Buzz Momentary: Temporaily
engages the buzz circuit. This is useful for tapping patterns to create distortion hits and rhythms. Note: When an effect is engaged, the Momentary will dis-engage it, when an effect is not engaged the momentary will engage it.
" StereoFilter: Frequency: Sets the
resonant frequency of the stereo filter. Use it in conjunction with the resonance control. The more resonance you use the more distinct any changes you make with frequency will be. The frequency tuning range of the filter covers a 12 octave range from 10 Hz to 40 kHz. The External CV input can control this and has been adjusted to provide standard 1 Volt/Octave response.
" Filter Type: This control selects the basic sound of the filter. Each filter type has a unique
sound. You will find situations where each one offers you a unique effect on a given signal.
The High Pass will roll off the bass of your signal. It will make things sound thinner. (See Fig. 1) The Band Pass filter acts like Wah pedal and puts a peak in the middle of your signal. (See Fig. 2)
This is great for hilighting certain frequency ranges or for creating a sweeping sound with the frequency knob. The Notch Filter works the exact opposite of the Band Pass filter. It puts a notch in your signal, essentially killing a small frequency band. This effect often sounds like talking through a pipe. It will also create unique sweeping sounds, (that is similar to a phase shifter) when used in conjunction with the frequency knob. For best Notch result put the Resonance knob fully counter-clockwise.

The Low Pass Filter is the most commonly used filter type. This is the kind of filter you will find on vintage synths and envelope followers. It is useful for controlling the amount of harmonics or the brightness of a signal. As you sweep the frequency control, try adding some resonance to make the cutoff frequency more audible.
" Filter Engage: This control toggles the filter on and off. Turning this on restarts
the LFO or triggers it if it is in single shot mode.
" Filter Momentary: This
switch temporarily engages the stereo filter. Try using it to tap rhythmic patterns while adjusting the frequency knob. Pressing this button also restarts the LFO.
" Resonance:
This controls the level of the peak at the resonant frequency of the filter, i.e. the frequency you dialed in with the frequency knob. FilterFactory was designed to create extreme effects, so be careful because the resonance control is able to cause the filters to self-oscillate at higher settings. Self oscillation produces a loud tone at the resonant frequency. It sounds a lot like sustained feedback.
" 4 Pole Mono: The
FilterFactory operates in a Stereo 2 Pole filter per channel mode, ( unless you switch to 4 Pole mode). When in Four Pole mode, the FilterFactory switches into Mono operation by summing the left and right channels before the 4 pole filter. A two pole filter will give you a gentler response, in technical terms it is defined as a 12dB/octave filter. A 4 pole or 24dB/octave filter will give you a much steeper filter response that will sound more pronounced.

LFO
" Waveform: The LFO provides the following cyclic (or repetitive) waveforms: Sawtooth,
Inverse Sawtooth, Triangle, Square Wave, Envelope Follow and Random. If you increase the LFO depth and turn the LFO speed up a bit you will be able to hear their effect on your frequency setting. Note: Although ENV Follow isn’t a waveform we put it here anyway. To get it working, select ENV Follow, set the frequency down to 115Hz, on a Low Pass Filter, set your resonance to 7.5 and adjust the LFO depth to taste.
" Singleshot: This button changes how the Filter and
the LFO Sections on your FilterFactory. Singleshot gives you the ability to trigger Filter Effects in a simular way that playing a note on an old synthesizer will trigger VCF and VCA Envelopes. The FilterFactory Singleshot Envelopes are borrowed from the LFO section. When single shot is on, Triangle, Sawtooth, and Inverse Sawtooth all become triggerable envelopes. The Division button allows you to select how many time the waveform envelope will trigger. LFO Speed adjusts the duration of the envelope, and the Filter Momentary triggers the envelope.
Note: Singleshot does not work when the ENV Follower is selected. Note 2: If the Filter is not engaged, the Singleshot does not automatically finish the waveform.
" Tap Tempo: The tap tempo button is another way to control the LFO rate to match the beat
of your music. When it is hit one time, it will restart the LFO at the beginning of its waveform. If it is hit twice within 2 seconds, then the time between presses is used as the new rate or tempo. It is hit 3 or more times, it will average the time between presses to come up with a more accurate tempo.
" Depth: This controls the amount the LFO changes the filter frequency.
" Speed: LFO Speed controls the period of the LFO waveforms by changing the frequency of
the LFO. The LFO Frequency range covers 0.1 Hz to 100 Hz for subtle to extreme effects.
" Division: The LFO rate, as defined by Tap Tempo or MIDI clock can be divided (or doubled)
using this control. The actual rate is indicated by the flashing tempo LED.
GLOBAL
" Effect Mix: Controls the Mix of the Buzz and Filter Sections in relation to your dry signal.
0% is all dry, or the same as bypassing the FilterFactory. 100% will be all FilterFactory and none of your dry signal.
" Bypass: Bypasses both effect blocks.

" Power input: This input will accept an IEC standard
power cable. The internal power supply can be used in any region. The fuse drawer can be rotated to accomodate the different power ratings around the world. Check the chart printed near the power entry for fuse ratings.
" Power Switch: Turns the FilterFactory on and off.
When turning on your equipment be sure to turn your power amplifiers on last. This will ensure that the noise common to mixers and signal processors does not cause damage to your speaker system. When powering down, be sure to turn your power amplifiers off first.
" CV left and right: If you’ve got an old CV / Gate
keyboard rig, FilterFactory will work in your current setup. You can control the Filter’s frequency with a CV signal. (1 volt per octave).
" Footswitch: Use a standard momentary footswitch
to turn Bypass on and off. FilterFactory can accept normally open or normally closed footswitches. The footswitch must be inserted before power is turned on so that FilterFactory can recognize its type.
" MIDI In/Out/Thru: Connect MIDI devices here. See
the MIDI Applications section for more detail.
" Channel Select: This selects the MIDI send and
receive channel.
" Output:
RCA -stereo - The RCA output level is nominally +4 dBu 1/4”-stereo TRS- This output produces a balanced +4 dBu
signal.
" Input:
Phono/Line Switch - this swiches the RCA inputs to
accept phono or line level.
RCA. -stereo - When the Phono/Line switch is in the
Line position, this input is optimized for a +4dBu input signal. When the Phono/Line switch is set to Phono, the RIAA phono pre-amp will accept a range of cartridge output levels.
1/4” -stereo TRS Balanced - This input is optimized
for +4 dBu input signal. When using the 1/4” inputs, be sure to use the 1/4” outputs as well. This will ensure no noticeable signal loss.
Note: Connecting both RCA and 1/4 inch jacks to the input causes the level of the 1/4” input to drop. Make sure that when you are using the 1/4” inputs that nothing is connected to the RCA inputs.

he advantage of this setup in a live situation is that the FilterFactory effect can be auditioned (cued) while other sources are playing. A caution though; it is
possible to get a large amount of gain with higher resonance settings, so when auditioning FilterFactory through headphones keep the level low and be careful with high settings of the Resonance control.

his setup requires a mixer with auxiliary (aux) send and return capabilities. All sources are connected directly to the mixer channel inputs. FilterFactory is fed its
signals from the mixer’s aux sends. This setup allows any or all of your sound sources to be processed through FilterFactory at any time. The mix control on FilterFactory should be set to 100% wet so that the dry source signal is only heard through the mixer.

his is a simple setup for stereo processing of your entire mix. You’ll want to use this setup only after you have explored all the sonic possibilities of FilterFactory because cueing is not possible. The cueing limitation can be minimized by bringing in the effect gradually with
FilterFactory’s mix control and doing any adjustments from there.
The 1/4” output jacks have servo driver circuits which are capable of driving longer cables to your power amp.
Also, this setup comes with a warning: WATCH THAT RESONANCE CONTROL! Like any true analog filter, FilterFactory is capable of generating ear- and PA-shredding peaks when you increase the resonance control beyond halfway. Have we made this point enough?

RECORDING AND PLAYING BACK PERFORMANCES WITH A SEQUENCER
E
lectrix products are performance products. We have designed them to accurately transmit and receive your performance through MIDI. That means every knob
and every switch can be automated. To do this, simply connect your FilterFactory to a sequencer. FilterFactory has MIDI Control Change messages assigned to all of it’s functions. That means your performance will show up in your sequencer as MIDI CC’s (Control Change Messages).
Note that a press and hold of the bypass button will dump the present state of the controls. MIDI CC #18 will request a dump of state.
" Real Time Control
The FilterFactory has a great alternative MIDI control feature. You can control the frequency control with your keyboard using MIDI Note Numbers. Here’s how...set the filter to self resonate by bring the resonance up quite high, then play monophonically on a keyboard plugged into the MIDI in on the FilterFactory for some pitched effects.
" MIDI Clock
The FilterFactory can receive MIDI clock messages. It will re-sync its Tap Tempo to the incoming MIDI clock for you automatically. This could be a great convenience for you if have a Drum Machine or Groovebox to sync to. Just set up your MIDI clock source to transmit MIDI clock, connect a MIDI cable from the source’s MIDI OUT to the FilterFactory’s MIDI in and press start on your MIDI clock source. Note: The LFO speed control overrides the Tap Tempo and the incoming MIDI clock tempo. That means if you adjust it you will loose sync to your Tap Tempo / MIDI Tempo. To re-sync to MIDI Clock, hit Tap Tempo.
" Setting the MIDI Channel
On the back of your FilterFactory is a small rotary switch labeled MIDI channel. Use it to set the Transmit / Receive channel of your FilterFactory.
