Source Audio Spectrum Intelligent Filter Reviews

So far so good

I had some poor experiences with analog/boutique envelope filters regarding hiss. This pedal is completely free of any noises on the side. No hiss or hum! I haven't tried the Neuro editor properly yet, but it there seems to be a lot of options. Six presets seems to be very good by themselves. Kudos for including power adapter with the pedal - something that most manufacturers won't do.

However, the usability regarding the knobs/switch and alternate button is not that good. I got another Source Audio pedal, and if that is as good as this one, I will most likely buy Neuro hub + Soleman so I can get most out of it while improving the usability live. A bit expensive thing to do, but if I'm right, it could be possible to replace a variety of pedals with Intelligent filter and another pedal linked together, thus saving money and space on pedal board. I used to be a full analog fan guy, but hey it's 2022 so there are options - and they are hiss/hum free too!

The pedal sounds fantastic, extremely thick and funky sounding on the bass guitar, I'm really happy. The quantity and quality of various types of envelopes, filters and distortion surprised me.
