I sold all of my multi-effect units years ago and they were all from the 90's. Is there a newer multi-effect unit that allows you to set a cutoff frequency for effects? Specifically, I'm talking about effects like delay, flange, chorus, and phaser where you can set it to only work on treble frequencies and leave bass frequencies alone. I would like to find something that would allow me to set a cutoff frequency and then set a ratio of effect and dry mix.

Effects units with cutoff frequeny?

Re: Effects units with cutoff frequeny?
Look at the internal routing in modelers like Helix, Axe FX 3, FM3, etc. If you just want effects, you can disable the amp/cab modeling.
In general, modelers have replaced multi-effects units in 2020. It's a rabbit hole though. Starting to see modelers that look like multi-effects.
One other idea is if you could use the effect loop in some with the appropriate EQ. Suspect that will be limiting.

Re: Effects units with cutoff frequeny?
Some Leslie effects will let you adjust the "horn" (highs) and"rotor" (lows) separately.
And there are chorus pedals with settings that use a different effect on the highs than they use on the lows.
Neunaber Inspire has modes using chorus on lows & vibrato on the highs, or detune on lows & chorus on the highs.
I seem to remember a chorus pedal that could be set to only process the treble, but I don't recall which one it was..

I guess that a simple "active crossover" for PA systems (can be found rather cheap)
will do the trick
They're often rack sized, though... and there's no "blend" controls either :/If somethings important- send a PM. I might be offline for long periods. Rock on!!!

Didn't Boss make a Hi Band Flanger? Isn't that what it does? I think it only affected the high frequencies.Administrator of the SDUGF

You’d think there would be an easier way, but a parallel mixer with Kill Dry and an EQ in series would technically work. That seems like a lot of work though.

Re: Effects units with cutoff frequeny?
The high band flanger is a flanger with an octave effect. So the name is a bit misleading. There is a bass delay that has a cutoff frequency but that's about it.
