The Sherman Filterbank 2 is a musical instrument distinctly different from the simple sound shaping of an "ordinary" filter. With two very complex filters that can be used in parallel or serial mode, LFO, envelopes, rich distortion, and various modular linking options, Filterbank 2 can create a rich beat from the simple noise of a loose cable. The device is the perfect solution for unlimited sound shaping applications once you understand it. Housed in an unusual case and accompanied by a remarkably clear manual, the Filterbank 2 is surprisingly functional and also extremely beautiful.

• Independent low pass, band pass, and high pass filters with resonance, frequency, and ADSR (positive - negative) controls
• These can be switched between parallel or serial modes
• The second filter has a 6-octave switch and can be synchronized with the first filter
• 1 ADSR generator for these filters with an external output for use with more filterbanks or modular systems, triggered by the incoming signal, a second sound source, or a gate
• 1 FM input for the filters, internal or external audio, LFO, or CV
• 1 VCA overdrive with AR generator as well
• 1 ring modulator input, internal or external audio, LFO, or CV
