Good call!  I explored the GGEE objects in Pd-extended, which led me to their source code (A+ for readability),  which led me to this:

Thanks for the pointer.

Cheers!

I think if you Google "biquad filter coefficients" or similar, you'll come up with tons of Greek to play with. Otherwise, the GGEE objects merely do the calculations and export them as messages, so if you wanted to use these objects to get some reasonable sounding stuff and then build your vanilla filters based on those coefficients, the filters themselves are technically vanilla as well.

best!

Derek,

Thanks for the complete list!  This is very helpful.

I was hoping to start off by using Vanilla-only objects.  Does anyone have some good examples of how [biquad~] can be used to replicate standard low/high/band pass filters w/ q?  Any other ideas?

       Hallo,

       How does everyone implement basic resonant filters, ie: LPF,
       HPF, BPF, in Puredata?  [lop~], [hip~], and [bp~] are nice, and
       can easily be strung serially to create 2nd, 3rd, and 4th order
       filters, but lack q.

       [biquad~] seems up to the task, but I'm unable to find any
       information in the help file or docs online pertaining to how
       one could replicate standard filters using this object.
