Elta Music Polyvox PF3 packs the classic filter design from the legendary Soviet synthesizer into handy desktop format and expands it usefully.
Every Soviet kolkhoz owned a Formanta Polivoks, also with artists like Thomas P. Heckmann or Hainbach the Soviet synth legend is highly regarded. The Polyvox PF3 filterbank uses the circuit design for a reinterpretation, consisting of two independent 12dB filters that can be controlled with a single cutoff knob, resulting in a 24dB filter when connected in series. In stereo operation, different filter modes per channel provide interesting effects, while the noise generator upstream of the filter can also be used as a separate noise source (white/pink). Volume controls are available for all component groups, with an additional Dry/Wet control for the filters and a pan control for the noise.
