Description

Filter MS-20 is a stereo filter and distortion effect inspired by the legendary MS-20 synthesizer, delivering immense sonic character with grit, punch, and stereo width. Transform any sound into bold, expressive textures that push your mixes to the next level. With circuit-accurate modelling using TAE technology, this plugin captures the original analogue charm while adding enhanced modern functionality for creative sound design. From smooth, rubbery bass tones to aggressive, resonant sweeps, Filter MS-20 offers intuitive controls and macro-style modulation for quick, dramatic changes, making it ideal for producers across genres such as French house, techno, industrial, and beyond. Explore its sequencer, envelope follower, and function generator to sculpt dynamic, animated sounds, while flexible routing options allow you to experiment with distortion and filter order. Designed for immediate inspiration, this effect combines vintage aggression with modern convenience, delivering a sonic experience that is both distinctive and versatile for any production workflow.

Key Features

  • Stereo Analogue Filter and Distortion:
    Circuit-accurate emulation of the MS-20 filter delivers rich, punchy tones with resonant sweeps and crunchy distortion for maximum sonic impact.
  • Enhanced Modulation and Sequencing:
    Three modulation sources, an envelope follower, and a 16-step sequencer allow precise, dynamic control for evolving and animated sound design.
  • Flexible Routing and Stereo Width:
    Switchable filter and distortion order, plus stereo offset, expands the depth of your mix and encourages creative experimentation.

Punchy Filter, Edgy Distortion:

Filter MS-20 lets you craft everything from smooth, warm bass to screaming filter sweeps with subtle fuzz or extreme distortion. Its grainy analogue character is faithful to the MS-20 synthesizer, enhanced for modern production with TAE modelling. Every knob and macro control is designed for immediate sonic transformation, making it easy to inject energy and colour into your tracks.

Push Your Mix Further:

Take complete control of your sound with advanced modulation and flexible routing. Animate parameters, reroute filter and distortion sections, and expand stereo width to create wild, evolving textures. Filter MS-20 turns ordinary loops and instruments into exciting, complex soundscapes that demand attention in any production.

Simple, Intuitive Workflow:

With a knob-per-function interface and macro-style controls, Filter MS-20 is ready to use immediately. Quickly dial in sounds, modulate creatively, and experiment with its interactive sequencer and function generator. Whether you are producing techno, house, industrial, or experimental music, it delivers expressive character with minimal fuss.

Sequencers

Sequencers are tools used to record, arrange and play back musical notes, patterns and rhythms in a structured way. Commonly found in synths, drum machines and standalone units, they allow you to build evolving sequences, loop ideas and create complete compositions step by step. If you enjoy hands-on music creation and pattern-based workflows, sequencers offer a powerful way to turn ideas into finished tracks.

Analog

Analogue is sound generation based on physical electronic circuits such as oscillators, filters, and amplifiers rather than digital processing. It produces continuously variable signals with natural drift, saturation, and harmonic character, giving sounds a distinctive warmth and movement. Analogue instruments are valued for their hands-on control, immediacy, and expressive response in both studio and live performance environments.

Sequencer

A sequencer is a tool used to record, arrange, and play back musical events in a defined order. It allows notes, rhythms, and parameter changes to be programmed step by step or recorded in real time, creating structured patterns and loops. Sequencers are used to keep multiple instruments in sync, build evolving arrangements, and automate movement within a sound. For example, a sequencer might be used to create a repeating bass pattern while gradually changing filter or modulation values to add variation over time.

Synth

A synth is an electronic instrument that creates sound through electronic signal generation and shaping. It is used to produce basses, leads, pads, textures, and effects by controlling oscillators, filters, envelopes, and modulation. Synths are central to electronic music and modern production, offering flexible sound design for both studio work and live performance.
