Akai MFC42 - Analog Filter Module




The MFC's two filters are true analog giving that indefinable extra warmth that only analog circuitry can deliver. Ideal for live and studio work, the Akai MFC42 will appeal to a wide variety of musicians from hip hop and R&B where it will add a rich, deep warm analog feel to techno, hip hop and new age where you can add big filter sweeps and extreme resonance.
Akai MFC42 Features:
  • Four 2-pole Analog Filters. By the combination of four 2-pole filters, the Akai MFC42 can be configured as 8-pole filter unit maximum. The sharp cut-off curve and powerful resonance setting allow wide range of sound making possible.
  • Stereo and Mono Input. Equipped with the Stereo Input and Mono Input independently and can be controlled separately. For instance, swing the rhythm section from Stereo Input with LFO while the bass from Mono Input being radically changed by manual filter settings works as two conventional filter units.
  • Four Filter types. The four filter settings of High pass, Low pass, Band pass and Notch. The filter type can be switched directly by the combination of toggle switch settings.
  • Groove Modulator. The Groove Modulator function offers the control of filter cut-off or resonance synced to the rhythm. By the combination of Tap Tempo or MIDI Clock Sync functions with LFO/Envelope, the filter cut-off/resonance can be controlled. It also has the Manual Trigger function to trigger the envelope manually at any point.
  • MIDI function. Almost all keys and knobs are assigned with the MIDI Control Change number. With the use of external sequencer, e.g. MPC2000/MPC2000XL, the movement of each key and knob can be recorded and played back later. The Send Scene function can send all the key and knob settings at once via MIDI. By recording this data at the beginning of each sequence, the settings can later be recalled when played back.
  • Analog Phaser/Distortion. The Phase Shifter and Distortion effects are built-in. The addition of these effects to the filter control makes the sound control more flexible.
  • 2-Band EQ on Output. With the High and Low EQ at the output stage, the tone of output sound can be controlled.
  • Phono Input. With the Phono Input provided at Stereo Input with LINE/PHONO selector, the turntable can be connected directly.
  • 2U Rack mountable. The enclosure is shaped so that it can either be rack mounted or placed on desktop to suit your playing style. With the optional mounting kit, i.e. KIT-MFC, the Akai MFC42 can be mounted on the MPC2000/ MPC2000XL.
