From subtle shifts to deep filtering
Min Freq and Max Freq set the boundaries of every cycle, so the effect only reaches as far as you want it to.
Keep the range narrow for a focused pulse, or open it up for dramatic changes in brightness and weight. You can also place Min above Max to reverse the direction entirely.
Shape every pass
LFO Period sets cycle length, while LFO Shape controls how each pass travels between frequency limits. Sine glides, Triangle rises and falls evenly, and Saw+ or Saw- creates one-way patterns with a fast reset.
Stretch cycles across pads and transitions, tighten them around guitars, synths or loops, or sync everything to tempo for rhythmic filtering.
Make every cycle speak
Reso emphasizes the frequencies around the cutoff, controlling how clearly the filter comes through the source.
Lower settings keep it broad and smooth, while higher settings add a sharper peak, stronger wah-like character and a filter line that cuts through the mix.
Paradox Mod Filter Advanced Controls
Open ADV controls to select filter type, lock cycles to tempo, soften hard resets and offset left and right channels for wider stereo patterns.
Tempo + Sync OFF
Sets the base timing when Mod Filter is running freely with sync off. Shorter values make each cycle repeat faster, while longer values stretch the pattern out. This control is ignored when Sync is enabled.
Sync
Locks the LFO to your DAW tempo. Once enabled, the free-running LFO Tempo and LFO Period controls are replaced by the synced note value.
Tempo + Sync ON
Selects the musical note value used for one complete LFO cycle while Sync is enabled.
LFO Smooth
Softens the sharp reset of Saw+ and Saw- by blending either waveform toward Triangle. Use a lower setting for a harder rhythmic edge or turn it up for a more gradual transition. It does not affect Sine or Triangle.
Filter Type
Choose between Lowpass, Highpass, Bandpass and Notch. Lowpass reshapes the top end, Highpass changes the weight of the low end, Bandpass narrows the sound around the cutoff, and Notch creates a phaser-like dip through the frequency range.
L/R Phase
Offsets the left LFO against the right. Keep it at zero for both channels to follow the same cycle, or increase it to create more separation across the stereo field without changing the rate or waveform.
