It's super interesting to see you approach the plugin like - well like a mixing engineer, using an eq. Every sound designer, every synth guy would immediately look for some kind of movement: a lowpass sweep with some resonance, listening for stepping, listening for sweet spots, discovering that you can link several bands to modulate them simultaneously, aaalso just clicking through the presets (which in my opinion make much more sense conceptually with a plugin like this one than with a plugin that is aimed at mixing) to get an idea what crazy stuff you can squeeze out of this thing.

Yeah, I see Volcano as a sound design tool more than an EQ. When I use it in mixing it's usually sidechained to another track to modulate filter parameters.

I'm not sure auto-gain makes sense on this type of plugin. It's intended to be more of an "instrument" or "creative tool" than an EQ right? For example if you want to automate a filter sweep, what does auto-gain mean in that scenario? Keep the volume the same throughout the sweep? Or just match the max volume? It might be too confusing, which is why I'm guessing they left it out.

Agree. It is absolutely not required here. But where it is really needed is in saturators with many separate control knobs for added harmonics. I can't stand Black Box HG-2 from PA, it's an incredibly confusing workflow in which each parameter adds a gain, and you need to balance 3-4 parameters and a volume knob and Mix knob.

There is a very obvious gain compensation running all the time, you can't turn it off. That's why there is no button. They don't want a "no auto gain" mode, and for a good reason. Playing with distorting filters like that could easily get you to very high levels, and they don't want to damage your gear/ears.

I'm using Volcano 2 a lot. Especially on my lead and screech groups. To be fair, Volcano 2 has become my go-to filter. Using it with sidechain to create nice sounding plucks (Hardstyle) or just as a regular neutral sounding filter (clean algorythm). Pro Q doesn't have a modulation section (correct me if i'm wrong), Volcano does. Just a bit more quality of life also when comparing Volcano with Ableton's stock autofilter. I always wanted to have more nodes to play with to make some creative stuff. Honestly I'm very exited about the update and I can't wait to play around with the newly added features. I think I'll be making plenty of new racks in Ableton with this update.

The Delay feature is very useful for creating stereo effects. You can really widen say, cymbals, by having Left/Right filters at slightly different frequencies and with very slight delay in one of the channels. Modulate the drive with envelopes for dynamic drive, too. It can be pretty useful for mixing tasks, even though it's primarily a creative tool. If you want to go ham, you can also chain filters with drive on them in serial.

Watching an engineer being confused by a creative plugin is priceless lol.. you really never have used Volcano before have you :)

The modulation on the volcano 2 is really the strength of that plug and i use it for ages. it’s looks like they really pimp this up with a visual feedback and lots of new filters types. Really excited about that one and probably will use it constantly as all the fabfilter stuff I own

the problem with an auto-gain in a plugin like this is that of you add a moving filter peak somewhere for style, do you really want all the of the rest of the sound to be turned down?... dynamically? no i wouldn't want that. instead, my go-to here would be to add a limiter to that layer or sound.

14:02 The moment when you first discover the CutOff button.

Thank you, because I have always wondered how to use volcano, and now I know how.

it is basically a sound creation tool, you need to start with noise an and up with a complete track and design all with volcano, and if you bypass all it would be just noise ... curious if you finally get it after one year ?

whats the song called?

My favorite use for filters in the mixing context is actually parallel processing. Think about a synth sound with parallel pitch shifters at -12 and -24 semitones, you can use bandpass filters to pluck out the most interesting frequencies without drowning in mud. Or just using a 6db lowpass with an envelope follower to “oomph” something. Or, maybe my favorite, a notch filter on reverb that randomly sweeps around to accent different phasing effects and add movement.

I didn't use Volcano 2 much but damn, this is too good to pass up. Also I'll have to try it first, but I'd hazard a guess that the different filter styles are much more different with the drive turned up.

The track is Backseat Rider by Lupud Nocte

Anyone has any videos showing what this plugin can do in real sound design or post-audio? Like outside of music? Still waiting to see anyone using this for something cool.

I think it can be used not only like filter, but also like a vintage analogue EQ

If you look at the display when you did the comparison between Volcano and Pro-Q, the peaks of the filter aren't in the same spot in both plugins even though the frequency is the same, I did some testing in the plugin and if you move a low shelf vertically, the filter moves horizontally so that the peak stays centered with the filter frequency, something that Pro-Q doesn't do. Kind of odd behavior but it makes sense since the plugin is all about making sweeping filters

mind blown.... heard about fab filtr but never really looked into it... thanks for the introduction....

Speaking as someone who uses analog lot of analog filters, you really don’t want autogain compensation. Part of the sound of the filter is the way that the perceived gain changes when you change cutoff and resonance.

I just tried some of the presets on my acoustic guitar. Exciting sounds. Dont know what its doing yet of course - but its exciting

I think at times you should try the presents to see what the plugin is capable of.

I like how cute he looks while discovering all the modulation parameters on Volcano. So innocently unaware of it being on Saturn. This guy is how you make honest transparent KZread videos.

Looks interesting for sound design. XY pad…. They sneaked a little “synth” into it.

There are some phenomenal presets in Volcano too.

those eq styles should be the ripple structure on the stop and pass band (to a slighter amount). i THINK!!! they are stronger on the LP/Bp/HP band. normal bell is likely to be an allpass (you could load a max demo and play with a filterdesign tool to learn about it). hm... that delay thing... if theres a L/R than maybe to widen the highs of a neurobass or distorted bass (so one side with 8 to 15 ms) with a high shelf.

plz make a vid about useful dynamic eq capabilities with the envelope modulation and stuff ...transient tinkering, dynamic tightening of loose bass frequencies etc if possible if not i hope pro q 4 is on its way with tons of extra features incl attack release controls on dynamic mode and things i mentioned above (crossing my fingers)

Via the ad hoc comparisons, Wytse, Volcano 3 has a smoother mastering EQ touch whereas Pro EQ.2 has a semi-dirtier saturation going on there albeit almost as clear as the Volcano 3 simulation side-by-side.
