Fairfield Circuitry Long Life - Filter, EQ, Oscillator

Fairfield Circuitry Long Life is a state-variable filter with wide range and application, combining tilt and notch/boost equalization around a 2nd-order (-12dB/octave) state-variable core. The filter self oscillates at high resonance settings which could be used like a drone or a one voice synth with external control. Long Life has CV and EXP inputs for external control which open up lots of different possibilities like wah type sounds with the expression, modulated filter effects or synth sounds with the CV.

This is such a great demo and a unique take on this pedal as far as I can see. Inspiring!

[@TheDryes]

I've been looking at Long Life demos for 2 weeks and this one really walks through many applications concisely. Thank you!

EQ pedals are so underrated. I use one of these for guitar and a Q Strip on bass and they're indispensable.

Ótimo review, parabéns!!!!

This demo sold me
Well done
What it did to your fuzz was mind blowing
I have shallow water and like 20 effects and this thing can literally add a million new options and setting to all of them!!! That’s alone is price of admission
The synth factor is just a bad ass added bonus
Fantastic job on this demo man

[@DoNoise]

Thank you!
I really like how it transforms fuzzes, too.

This is going on my board next to the shallow water

great demo

[@DoNoise]

Thank you!

Great thorough review as always. I’m not at home in synths and stuff, and the CV thing still kinda baffles me. So this might be a stupid question… Can I pair this with the Rainger FX snare trap and connect those CV (out/in?) connections to the Snare trap? And what would that do exactly? Any help or thoughts are appreciated. Take care

[@DoNoise]

Thanks!
I think the Snare Trap would just send out a trigger signal which might work like a square wave modulation on the filter.

[@DeGroove]

@@DoNoise indeed, I kinda figured it out I think. The BD, SN and HH connections on the snare trap are CV INputs. The Q an F connections on the long life are INputs as well, so no use in connecting them.
