With all the XLFOs, envelope generators, envelope followers and MIDI sources you will ever need, Volcano 3 offers endless modulation possibilities. Different filter styles offer saturation and self-oscillation at high peak settings, just like classic, vintage filters. Volcano 3 contains four analog-sounding filters with flexible routing, each offering many filter shapes including non-linear bell and shelf filters. Today, Volcano 3 continues to deliver the best in creative filtering with new non-linear filter shapes and a completely redesigned interface that is an absolute delight to work with. That's exactly what FabFilter Volcano has been known for since its first release in 2005. We find this GUI style much more accessible than previous FabFilter designs, especially if you’ve never used a FabFilter plugin before. It now matches the beautiful, modernized design of plugins such as Pro-Q 3, Pro-R and Timeless 3. Nothing beats a vintage sounding, gritty and creamy cut-off filter. When first loading up the plugin, you’ll notice Volcano 3’s GUI has had a serious make-over. There are NO returns on this product.Įrupting with character and vintage quality

You can midi learn external filters, I think, havent gotten a hang of that myself though. Switch off the filter and use an EQ or an external filter and you will notice it does not move with the note and as such high notes loose there strength due to a stagnant filter.

Anyway, it's worth a shot, in the bottom left corner, in the MIDI learn menu, disable 'receive MIDI', there is an off chance that it may be the culprit. Set the Filter a bit low in the synth and you can still clearly hear the high note playing cause the cutoff moves according to the note your playing. Point is, it doesn't really explain why it changes when you switch presets.

To get what I mean by that you can play a note on something like the 5th octave and use a low pass filter on the synth and outside the synth. The advantage filters inside synths have is that they usually follow the note and as such the filter moves as the note moves.

As such you can easily use Abletons EQ8 with a Saturator before it to add that warmth, maybe overdrive instead (but that’d be more radical with its effect). The warmth is usually a sign that there is some degree of distortion going on.
