  • Using State Variable Filters for Peaking Equalizer Bands

    Introduction Digital equalizer filters require efficient and flexible building blocks to create musically-useful response shapes. State variable filters (SVFs) are a powerful technique that provide a configurable peaking response suitable for equalization bands. This document overviews SVF theory and implementation details specifically for designing peaking filters within digital audio equalizers. It covers the key formulas,…
