The only revision I know of is on newer ones there is an internal switch for lowpass, highpass and bandpass. Bought mine ages ago and it had the switch, so unless you get some ancient one from the bst it should be like mine.

Oh yeah, the demo is on bandpass. Xero does low pass

hey, digging this up as this is the only talk I found about that internal switch. I opened mine (which I purchased from Subdecay directly and late 2013, so after you), but I don't know where that switch is. There's only the back of the PCB, and it's "stuck" or at least fixed well enough that it makes me afraid of pulling it and destroying everything... any idea?

The first batch don't have that switch... But 2013, I guess it should be there.

hey guys thanks! so it's the little black plastic thingy that you can barely see under the pcb? it just goes left or right and you switch it with a knife or something?

btw, I'm not that savvy with the whole pass filter thing. How would you compare both modes? I suppose low pass would be the wisest choice with bass?

I don't have the Proteus anymore.
From what I remember, one sound great... and the other setting is more like an auto wah (not my thing).

Yep.
They're both pretty similar in a way.
Bandpass is cutting the lows and cutting the highs, creating a smaller "band" of frequencies that get let through. That band is then shifted. It is more wah sounding.
Lowpass cuts the everything higher than the cutoff point and lets everything lower through. I guess it's a bit more dubby... ?? But not.

I wouldn't say one is necessarily better than the other for bass, they're just different.

It's fully safe to leave the back plate off and plug it in and test how it sounds, then (carefully) flip the switch and keep testing.

I actually only use the step mode, not the envelope. Does the switch make any difference there? (can't test it right now)

It makes a difference over the whole sweep of it. The step filter is doing the same thing as normal, but instead of the envelope (strength) of your signal deciding how the filter sweeps it is controlled by the step sequencer.

thanks heaps! I'll test later today

If it has the switch it should say v1.4 or 1.41 on the back of the board.
