Steady State Fate Stereo Dipole

Dual stereo 4-core multimode filter with 18 topologies per channel

20 HP Eurorack module

Stereo Dipole is a dual stereo multimode filter in 20HP with four independent 12dB/oct filter cores arranged as two channels (A/B). Each channel has a Pole (single-peak) and Dipole (dual-peak) filter, individually selectable as HP/BP/LP, routable in series (24dB/oct cascaded) or parallel (independent/summed for notch and variable-width responses). Features include per-channel Drive (pre-filter saturation), Spread (secondary cutoff offset of plus or minus 5 octaves), and stereo-linked Freq and Res controls. Self-oscillation capable across approximately 17 octaves (0.3Hz-50kHz). DIPOLE AB output sums all four cores into a quad-peak mono signal. DC-coupled for CV processing.

Features

  • Four independent 12dB/oct filter cores in two stereo channels
  • Each channel has Pole (single-peak) and Dipole (dual-peak) filters
  • HP/BP/LP mode selectable per channel — 3 modes times 2 routing options = 18 topologies per channel
  • Series routing cascades Pole into Dipole for 24dB/oct combined slope
  • Parallel routing provides independent dual-peak filtering with notch and comb capabilities
  • Spread control offsets Dipole cutoff by plus or minus 5 octaves from Pole
  • Per-channel Drive for pre-filter analog saturation
  • Stereo-linked Freq, Res, and FM controls for master performance sweeps
  • Self-oscillation across approximately 17 octaves (0.3Hz to 50kHz)
  • Temperature-compensated 1V/octave tracking on all V/Oct inputs
  • DC-coupled for CV processing and voltage-controlled slew
  • DIPOLE AB output sums all four cores for quad-peak mono response
