manhattan analog discrete svvcf price : $250.00

the discrete svvcf started life as the svf design (based on the j. haible discrete 2040 gain cell) which scott stites posted over at electro-music in april. manhattan had been wanting to work with another filter for a while and this one looked interesting, so they started playing with it. they lopped off the audio input section and grafted on the cp3 mixer (more transistors!) and that's what you're hearing in this rather short clip. it's definitely interesting! a very thick, rich-sounding filter with a lot of different personalities depending on how hard you drive the inputs.
