The Casio FZ1 is another underrated old sampler. It has the most distinctive resonant filters I've ever heard. Really brutal and distorted! They are a strange analog/digital hybrid design, which leads many to think they are digital filters. In fact they are a switched capacitor design, as far I as can tell. On the schematic the filter/dca chips are after the D/A converter/sample and holds. > > Cheers, > > Malte > _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
