"The
Resonator is a unique and great sounding dual analog filter,
versatile and simple and to the point, that gives you
great control and interfacing possibilities. Highly recommended!

WHAT
IS A RESONANT FILTER?
Some of you may not know what a RESONANT FILTER is, but I
can bet that you have heard a Resonant Filter many, many times.
The cool analogue Hard Frequency Sweeps, and warm
deep gliding sub-bass oscillations that you hear in most
modern 'electronic ' or 'beats' driven music comes
from running samples and instruments being run through a balance
of High and Low pass Resonate Filters.
Guitarists can appreciate a Resonant Filters
ability to offer new
tonal frequencies and phasing capabilities using
a LFO.
THE
CLASSIC KORG MS20 SYNTHESISER
"You can feed any signal through the patchbay and use
the MS20's filters to alter the sound colour, so its
kind of a synth and analogue effects unit in one. Excellent!!"
Sonicstate.com
on the Korg MS20 |
THIS
IS WHAT THE RESONATORS 'SOUND' IS BASED ON!
In 1978 the KORG MS20 Sythesiser was released, the most distinct
feature of this synth is it's distinctive High and
Low Pass resonate filter section that allows musicians
to give their instruments and records an amazing analog
treatment by running through the synthesisers filters.
The 'MS20's Filter Section however sounded SO GOOD,
that since KORG stopped manufacturing the MS20 in 1983 the
rare synthesisers have been much sought after by musicians
and producers just for the 'Filter Sounds' alone -
some being exchanged on the second
hand market for US$800 plus.
The Korg MS20 filter sound can be found on some of
the most influential recordings of recent times...
Daft Punk's Homework album is covered in MS20 filter sounds.

FROSTWAVE NOW OFFERS YOU THE MS20 SOUND
IN
A STOMP BOX! , INTRODUCING...
THE FROSTWAVE RESONATOR - ANALOG EFFECTS UNIT
The Frostwave Resonator is a 'true clone' of the filter
section of the KORG MS20 Sythesisers. It consists
of a high and low pass filter in series, with resonance and
cutoff controls for each, plus a balance control and bypass
switch. All fitted ( or should we say retro-fitted)
into a tough robust compact blue metal stomp box.
The sockets at the back of the unit enable the Resonator
to be used with, or to be controlled by, analog
synth equipment. Low Pass resonace, High Pass resonace,
Low Pass frequency and High Pass frequency are all able to
be controlled by standard analog control voltages,
or by a MIDI to Control Voltage convertor.
LIMITLESS CREATIVE POSSIBILITIES FOR YOUR MUSIC
You can run anything into the Resonator.... Get the
fatest warmest analog synth tones out of your cheesy
casiotone keyboard. Get the 'sub-bass frequencies
occilating on your drum samples. Mutating
the weediest of samples, make the subtle extreme. Warm
the tone of your instruments and studio recordings.
"I
create a variety of electronic music styles, and can find
a use for this baby anywhere. I'm a big fan of the Korg
MS series, and the Resonator integrates perfectly into
my setup. "
Mike Funaiole, Impossible Sound MA USA |
"(The)
Frostwave Resonator is by far the best filter I have yet
used. The sound is very unique, even when compared the
MS20 filter. I personally love the sound of running some
gated and overdriven drums through it, opening the filters
gives it an awesome crunch and grit fom low depth ranges
to hi filtered heaven."

"for
guitar, it provides a sound palette not normally available
to a guitarist. using a variable LFO, it can sound like
a tremoloed wah , it can sound like the longest slowest,
deepest phaser available, it can sound like a ray gun
from the mother ship....and so on. any one of these sounds
is worth having the Resonator, but with all of them in
one box, it makes it essential to have one."
