Starsky Carr dives headfirst into the Erica Synths Resonant Filterbank and emerges with his face only slightly melted. Forget what you think you know about filterbanks and graphic EQs—this box is packing more heat than a toaster-fight at an illegal warehouse rave. In classic Starsky style, he pokes, prods, and pushes the filterbank way past polite territory, breaking down its Serge Modular roots, four wild modes, and performance tricks that would make most desktop boxes cry for their firmware mummies. If you want polite, look elsewhere—this is a chaos module for the brave.
