Filterstep by Audiomodern is a motion filter effect that turns static sounds into shifting, rhythmic textures. Use it to add pulsing movement to pads, reshape loops with intricate filter grooves, or bring evolving detail to synth parts. Real-time pattern generation and movement randomization encourage experimentation, while host tempo sync and quantization help keep the results connected to your track.

The straightforward controls make it approachable for hobby producers, with a motion selector and customizable sequence range for shaping the groove. Blend the processing with the original signal using the wet/dry control, explore Infinity mode, or recall favorite settings through quick-load presets. MIDI control and instant/tap bypass also make it useful for hands-on performance. Available in VST, VST3, AU, AAX and standalone formats, Filterstep suits producers looking for anything from subtle animation to complex, constantly changing filter patterns.
