This plug-in provides impeccable digital audio filtering, giving it a distinct analog quality. It delivers a unique character that sets it apart from other software.
The software was originally developed for FabFilter One, which is why Volcano's filters were designed to be the fattest and smoothest self-oscillating digital filters possible. It offers seven different filter characteristics that define the unique sound and overdrive of the filter. The user can switch from smooth filters with moderate overdrive to raw, self-oscillating over-the-top madness! And in combination with the response and slope settings, FabFilter Volcano offers up to 63 different filter types.
The interactive filter display of Volcano allows the user to tweak the filters by showing both filter curves and letting the user drag them around. You can adjust the filters separately or both at the same time. The panning setting on both filters enables you to adjust the filter balance on the left and right audio channels, which creates stereo effects without phase problems.
Furthermore, the frequency, peak, and panning settings can be modulated in any way one can imagine with the two MIDI triggered LFOs and the MIDI/Audio triggered envelope generator. The LFOs have triangle and square wave forms and can synchronize to the host tempo in normal, dotted, or triplets mode. You also get all the standard FabFilter goodies: perfectly fine-tuned knobs that work both in vertical and circular drag modes, interactive MIDI Learn, Smart Parameter Interpolation for smooth parameter transitions, over 100 great presets, extensive help file with interactive help hints, sample accurate automation for all parameters, AltiVec and SSE optimization, and much more.
In summary, FabFilter Volcano's exceptional features make it stand out. It is highly recommended for all users who need a software that can provide a sufficient response and has different slopes.
