In his tutorial on ‘Better Ambient Pads’, @VirtualModular discussed the usefulness of polyphonic modulation of filters in the context of pads.
In the example patch, I compared polyphonic frequency modulation of 15 different filter modules (there are many more, but could not fit all in here).
Filters are modulated by a polyphonic LFO of constant frequency, but with shifted phases. Filters differ in sound and CPU requirements.
Start CLKD to generate 4-note chords. Use Boly Puttons (computerscare) to select one of the 15 filters. On Ch. 16, no filter is applied for reference.
You can increase the Wet signal of Plateau for a better sonic experience, but modulation effects also become less pronounced then because they are washed out in the reverb.
