WithTempête Magnetique,EoWavepresents aquadruple multimode filterwith complex possibilities in sound shaping. Depending on the constellation, Tempête Magnetique also functions as aresonatorpercussion synthoroscillator. As thesuccessor to Fluctuations Magnétiques, the module naturally has a few innovations to offer, yetit sounds extremely musicaland invites experimentation. If you disregard all normalizations and links, the four filters work independently. A toggle switch connects the filters A+B and/or C+D to dual/stereo pairs, and you can choose betweenparallel and serial audio pathsfor each pair. A master sync switch connects all four filters together. A single Tempête Magnetique channel offers a choice oflowpass,Bandpassand highpass filter characteristics, all operating at 12dB slopes. The resonance colors neatly and extends to self-oscillation in all modes. For modulation there is a CV input with attenuator for the filter groups X and Y, this affects both filters of a group equally. A small highlight of this module is the integratedenvelope followerwith adjustabledecay. This can modulate either one or both filters per group (X/Y) with the set intensity. As soon as you pull up the fader for thecross modulationit gets really wild, then the two filter pairs modulate each other. Depending on resonance and channel chaining, this can get really violent. The Tempête Magnetique is a guarantor forgood sounding filter soundsand quickly tempts you to use more than you would have built into a simplePatch; simply because it is possible and thenormalizationsandlink modesmake this even easier.
