Future Sound Systems FIL1

Future Sound Systems FIL-1 Convulsion Generator is based around a bridged-T resonator circuit, as found at the heart of the infamous TR808 kick drum.

The circuit will produce decaying sinusoids when pulses are sent to the input. This can be likened to "pinging" a resonant filter. However, in the case of the Convulsion Generator, the resonator has been tuned so that these sinusoids are produced at frequencies below the audible range.

This means that the Convulsion Generator can output sinusoidal CV sources, as well as covering the lower end of the audible spectrum, allowing for boomy, bass-heavy kick drums.
