Antares Audio Technologies announced the release of Filter, a quad rhythmic multimode filter plug-in for Macintosh and PC. Antares Filter is designed to give composers, producers, remixers and engineers everything they need to harmonically shape their tracks with surgical precision or animate them with an almost limitless variety of tempo-synced rhythmic effects

At the core of Filter are four true stereo, analog-style multimode filters. With low-pass, highpass, bandpass and notch modes, variable cutoff slope, four independent full-featured delay sections, and a variety of filter routing options, Filter provides the power to create dynamic filter effects that range from subtle to extreme.

To bring tracks to life, Filter provides modulation capabilities. Virtually all key parameters can be modulated. Control sources include four multi-shape LFOs, four Envelope Generators with delay and hold times, two Rhythm Generators, an Envelope Follower and up to 28 MIDI controllers.

Filter also includes features specifically targeted at rhythmic, groove-based music composition. Chief among them are two drum-machine style Rhythm Generators for the the creation of loop-based grooves or complex polyrhythms. As importantly, every one of Filter's time-based parameters – from tempos, to delay times to envelope rates – can be locked to Filter's internal master tempo or to the host's MIDI clock.

Key Filter Features:

  • Four analog-sounding stereo multimode filters
  • Lowpass, highpass, bandpass and notch modes
  • Variable slope: 12dB/oct - 48dB/oct

  • Four Envelope Generators
  • Four multi-shape LFOs
  • Envelope Follower

  • Powerful Modulation Matrix
  • Extensive MIDI control

Filter is available now for RTAS Mac (OS9 + OSX), VST Mac (OS9 + OSX), MAS (OS9 + OSX), DirectX, VST (PC) and RTAS (PC) at a U.S. MSRP of $199.00. A time-limited demo version is available for download.
