General EQ Blend
Click here to return to the Filters page
The 'General EQ Blend' block blends the filter coefficients of two second order filters according to the blend factor specified and performs filtering opertaion
This block gives access to a wide variety of 2nd-order (biquad)filter algorithms. The blend factor can be entered(0-1) or changed using the slider. The Slew time can be entered in seconds (0-1) to slew from the initial blend factor to the target value.
- The available filter types are:
- Parametric
- Shelving
- General High-Pass
- General Low-Pass
- General Band-Pass
- General Band-Stop
- Butterworth Low-Pass / High-Pass
- Bessel Low-Pass / High-Pass
- Tone Control
- 1st-Order Low-Pass / High-Pass
- All-pass
- Peaking
- Notch
- Chebyshev Low-Pass / High-Pass
The slewing functionality is added for smooth transition from one blend factor to another when the blending factor is changed. The slewing takes place approximately in the time set by the user in the GUI. The slew time can be entered in the GUI slew Text box. The slew time range is limited between (0 to 1 second).

| Frequency - Filter 2 | 1000 Hz | 0 - 96k Hz | Center frequency of the filter |
| Slew | 0.01 s | 0 - 1 seconds | Set the time to slew from one set of coefficients to another. |
| Blend | 0 | 0-1 | Set the blend between two sets of filters |
Click on the 
icon to configure the filters. Select the desired filter type from the drop-down combo-box list. The filter controls and the icon button image will change to reflect the selected filter type.
