Voted "Best Eurorack Filter of 2018" by MusicRadar and Ask.Audio.
Wow. I sat down to record this video thinking I was about to walk through "yet another filter", when, 4 hours later, I could not believe the amount of STUFF I could do with this one module... from it's 8phase LFO or Oscillator capabilities, to it's seemingly endless modulation results using selfpatching and/or Exp/Lin FM CV... and that's barely getting started.
I realized, I did not need to do an indepth review of this module (whew) since there are SO MANY other reviews already published, so I will link to those below and instead stick to my script of: why did I choose it (duh!) and how will I use it (omg...)
Timeline:

05:48 Looking at the phased outputs (scope)
07:07 As an LFO Modulating other stuff
09:53 As a VCO Waveshapes
12:27 As a Filter
