EQ and Filter
Patches and ReFills
Filter Research by Nucleus Sound Lab
A huge variety of different effects are included: dual-filter boxes, granular glitch-machines, self-vocoding devices, huge fixed-filter banks, and crossfaded formants are just some of what you’ll find inside. All are created from scratch and with the care and attention Nucleus SoundLab is known for.
MuRF ReFill by Resonant Filter
My favorite effects pedal of all time is the Moogerfooger MuRF. MuRF stands for “multiple resonance filter array.” Basically it has 8 sliders that control whether or not you’ll hear the sounds in those bands. However it isn’t just an equalizer because it plays patterns of those bands (22 different patterns.) Very analog, sequenced fun. Great for drums, ambience, pads. Why am I telling you this? Because I made a Refill based on this pedal. And while it isn’t perfect, I think it gets the job done.
E-Note State Variable Filthor by Shultz
Eight Thor stereo filter patches. HP, BP, LP & Notch in 12dB and 24dB modes. Frequency range (11Hz-16744Hz) is tuned to be the same as in SubTractor, NN-19, Dr.Rex & ECF-42. Gate is open even when song is stopped, just keep the RUN button RED!
HP Filter by Teknolab
This HP filter uses the internal filter of the Stereo Imager. To overcome the gap between 20 and 100 Hz, it also has a crossfade, resulting in an almost perfect HP filter. Resonance comes from an EQ device, making it possible to change the shape of the resonance. This filter can also work at 24 dB, using a second Stereo Imager. It also has a envelope.
Emulating RB338 PCF by Peff
This effect configuration is an example of using the Matrix to create patterns which trigger the ECF filter module. Several of the patterns are transcribed from the pattern descriptions in the ReBirth Manual.
ReDrumToECF by Peff
This file demonstrates using a Subtractor Synthesizer as an Envelope Follower/Lag Generator. This is used to extend quick gate signals or reshape modulations.
REXFilterbank by Peff
This is a cool configuration for creating some nasty distorted Filtered Drum loop effects.

Using Thor to Process Audio by James Bernard
Think Thor is ONLY a versatile and amazing sounding synth? Think again because Thor is also one of the coolest audio processors you’ve got… you just didn’t know it. The best part? I not only show you how to process audio through Thor, but I have created some Thor Combinator patches to get you started!
Thor as a Switchable Filter by Sir Sedric
This is a quick look at using the Thor Polysonic Synthesizer as a Switchable Filter in Reason 4, using Combinator assignments.
Thor as a Programmable Filter by Sir Sedric
This is Part 2 of 3 of my series on Thor. This video covers using Thor’s extensive routing matrix to make really cool, switchable and programmable effects. I’ve made a patch that exercises some of your options when routing Thor, but the real power is in your brain. Once you know how to do things like this, you can take the time to make your own patches from scratch and really flourish in Reason.
Using all 4 of Thor’s Inputs and Outputs by Sir Sedric
This video shows the routing concepts and techniques needed to use all 4 of Thor’s inputs and outputs to make really complex, evolving and dynamic synth patches based around Thor’s expansive filter sections. Thor itself is an absolute beast, but when used in combinations of other forms of synthesis and other devices it’s true power is unlocked.
