One of the most satisfying effects you can achieve is automating the filter cutoff for a low-pass or high-pass filter. This is called a filter sweep. Experimenting with this in your project, as shown in the screenshot below, can create an impressive transformation. This technique is a staple in DJ performances, often giving the sensation of moving into a different space with distinct frequency characteristics, much like entering a loud club from outside. This effect is so powerful because low frequencies travel longer distances and penetrate walls more effectively than high frequencies. That's why, as you approach a club, you can hear the low bass thumping, but the high frequencies only become clear once you step inside. By automating the filter cutoff, you can mimic this immersive experience, adding depth and excitement to your music. ![[Filter Sweep Automation.mp4]]
