Akai MFC 42 Rackmount Analog Filter

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

"The MFC42 is a true analog filter module designed by Akai for its MPC series equipment. However, you can use it to process any sound source, since it has basic 1/4 "inputs and outputs and MIDI.It has genuine analog filters for that warmer tone with the Lowpass, Highpass, Bandpass and Notch filter types. It consists of a MONO filter section and the STEREO filter section.The MONO section offers 2, 4 and 8 pole filter slopes.The STEREO section offers 2 and 4 pole filter slopes.The 8-pole slope of MONO It uses the entire filter circuit, so the STEREO section is not active, and the MONO section is inactive when the STEREO section is in 4-pole mode, but when both sections are used simultaneously, they can be linked so that the MONO filter control knobs control the MONO and STEREO sections.The link can also be inverted, so that the two sections sweep in opposite directions.

Other features include an ADSR envelope for the filter contour. This envelope can be activated by the MIDI button and Trigger"

These always gave me the impression of two 1U rack units stacked on top of each other. It's actually one unit with a black line dividing the two sections down the middle.

CATCH TR909 kick miming.

Published on Jun 24, 2019 ReBach

"In this demo a VCF-A does a (almost) TR909 kick simulation.

We only use a VCF without an input signal but in self-resonance. Only the ADSR is present for FREQ control, and of course some delay or reverb."

This is one of the posts that lead me down the YouTube rabbit hole. First the video of BREAKWATER featured above:

BREAKWATER LIVE 1978 NO LIMITS

Published on Sep 7, 2012 bassmania99

"RARE VIDEO OF THE ORIGINAL RECORDING BAND 1978. KAE WILLIAMS JR KEYBOARDS, STEVE GREEN BASS, GENE ROBINSON LEAD VOCALS AND TRUMPET, GREG SCOTT SAX, JIMMY JONES DRUMS, JOHN "DUTCH" BRADDOCK PERCUSSION, ZAE "LINC LOVE" GILMORE GUITAR & VINCE DUTTON SAX."

Next, a video I found of Breakwater's "Release the Beast" featuring the sample. Turns out it was overdubbed to a video clip of Phantom of the Paradise featuring TONTO.

"Ignore the awful music and fool miming at the keyboard. Instead, admire TONTO in all it's glory!"
