I am planning a Eurorack drum set, with four drum voices, each consisting of a noise source, an MS-20 style high-pass (used for self-oscillating while still passing the noise above the resonant frequency) and low-pass (either non-resonant and enveloped for kicks and toms, or static and resonant for snares), and VCA and decay envelope. I was almost set on the Soundforce Dual Filter, until I discovered the EFI. It has everything I need and nothing I don't. The problem is that I need two EFIs per voice, which means more power cables stuffing up the case. Would it be possible to create a dual version of the EFI? Going with the pair of EFIs would still save me 4hp per voice over Soundforce's offering.
The Karl module will not work for my use case, I need the high-pass and low-pass cutoffs to be fully independent.
Thank you for your quick reply. I guess I'll just use 4ms multi power cables if I go with the eight EFIs instead of the four Dual Filters.
Hey Deso, Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions. A dual EFI setup is technically possible, but I don’t believe there’s enough demand to justify the costs for development, prototyping, and testing. Additionally, my to-do list is already packed with designs and revisions that take priority.
So, a dual EFI isn’t likely to happen anytime soon. Thanks, Stefan
