A beautifully unique sounding Filter
Kamil Z. 08.06.2016
I have recently purchased this Filter as it was recommended to me by another musician and i am not dissapointed.

This Filter is so unique in features and for the price you can't go wrong, especially when you turn the resonance all the way up and play around with the input volume. It delivers so unique harmonies of the resonnance that sometimes feel it is modulated by white noise.

Another incredible feature is that it is HP,BP,Notch and LP with 2 differnt outputs so you can use one filter with 2 different settings at the same time.

The only slight downsize is that when you use the mix between the HP and LP the signal is quite low and need to be amplified slightly.

Lastly i would recommend getting the Black and Yellow Special edition that really looks cool like a......Wasp :)

Lastly i would like to point out that the quality of this unit and Doepfer units is excellent. The units are made from very good quality parts and all the soldering is done like it would have been in the 80's.

Overall an excellent product and a must for every modular system owner looking at an unusual filter.

Get the special edition one while it's still available.

Very nice filter with a lot of personality
Tunnel One 13.10.2017
I cannot compare with a real Wasp filter, since I never used one before, but I really dig this version Doepfer did. The filter has nice character, and can give lot of extra harmonics when you increase levle or resonance to maximim setting. It growl, chirps and scrapes, and is a versatile and useful tool in my rack. It is a bit less interesting for the cleaner sounds, but there are other filters for that. :)

A one-of-a-kind filter!
Mr. Harold 11.11.2020
As pretty much everyone is suggesting, this filter is really unique. I find it most interesting when used as a low-pass, though it works great as a high-pass and band-pass as well. No self-oscillation, but it gets crazy agressive and wobbly at high resonance levels - and this is what its known for. Nice to have a build-in attenuator for the second CV input. The aesthetic is simply fantastic, thanks to its juicy yellow color the module really stands out among others. The only thing it could use would be a CV input for resonance or filter type mix, but even without that the module is still amazing. Super cheap, too! Do not hesitate, just get this beauty.

Wasp, the one and only
mentok 10.07.2022
This filter is a staple module, and for good reason. Robust build and signature sound unlike any other. While I find I like integrating it into my synth patches, I have found that it serves as an excellent guitar "wah" effect when combined with an expression pedal controller. The resonance does not self-oscillate without modifications, but especially when using with my guitar setup this is a welcome feature.

A classic filter.
EdEditz 19.08.2022
I love the sound of this filter and so do most people because you can find this filter in most eurorack setups. Its only down side is that it doesn't self oscillate but otherwise, for the money a no brainer.

Angry like a wasp
Moogieman 23.07.2020
Resonance doesn't procude a high pitched buzz so much as an angry gurgling. Unusual sound, which I love but you probably want this a supplemental filter to provide some different colour. Very good build quality and the colours are briliant.

Would have been nice to have a CV for resonance but I suppose at the price point it's fair enough this wasn't included (also may have been hard to fit on the front panel).

EDP goodness
Drat Sherbet 18.04.2023
Excellent resonance and overdrive, very similar in sound to the EDP Wasp synth. Good variety of CV & knob controls as well.

Dirty monster

Love the growl and noise on this particularly as you lower the resonance. This makes some wonderful noises when coupled with my Erica Basslines module. Nice.
