MOTM SuperLadder-4 Filter
Calling all sound sculptors and filter fanatics! Oakley Sound Systems' MOTM SuperLadder-4 Filter is a true marvel of analog engineering, delivering the ultimate in voltage-controlled filter bliss. This bad boy is based on the legendary ladder filter, giving you that classic, warm, and enveloping Moog-style tone. But Oakley didn't stop there - they've taken it to the next level with some ingenious additions. First up, you get your choice of filter flavor - a classic Moog ladder or a more aggressive, squelchy TB-303-style diode ladder. Simply swap a few components, and you've got a whole new tonal palette at your fingertips. And the output section is where things get really interesting, with both a traditional four-pole low-pass and a sharper one-pole option, plus a variable shape that lets you morph between bandpass and four-pole goodness. But the real showstopper is the voltage-controlled resonance. Oakley's clever use of VCAs means you can crank up the 'Q' without losing volume, opening up a world of dynamic, evolving filter sweeps. Whether you're sculpting lush pads, punchy basslines, or searing lead tones, the SuperLadder-4 is the ultimate companion for sound designers and synth enthusiasts alike. Rumor has it that this filter has even found its way into the rigs of electronic music luminaries like Aphex Twin and Squarepusher, who've used it to craft their signature mind-bending soundscapes. So if you're ready to take your sonic explorations to the next level, the MOTM SuperLadder-4 is the filter you've been searching for.
