filter #2 not active in parallel or stereo, only in series - SOLVED
Hello,
It does not seem like filter #2 is active when filter routing is set to parallel or stereo.
I have tried this on a freshly initialized patch.
I have tried through all 3 oscillators.
The filter path selection is set to go through the two filters, not bypass.
Filter #1 seems to work as expected.
Both filters work when using series routing in the filter setting.
Is there something I am missing or don't understand?
Latest version of Nanostudio2 on iPad Pro 12" that has latest IOS.
Thanks,

I'm pretty sure filter #2 is working in all routing configuration - it is used a lot in factory or IAP patches
Are you sure you enabled it ? By default filter #2 is disabled, you need to tap on it's enable button (at left side of "FILTER" text) - filter then switch from grey to blue (or what is color of track) which means it's enabled
Dont' forget that filters 1/2 are by default modulated by X pad and Filter envelope (and LFO2, where both Filter Env and LFO2 amount is on zero in default patch) - so if you use for filter 2 something different that standard filter - like Waveshaper - it may sound at first look it is not working, or it is not doing what you expected - you need to remove Filter Env and X pad mapping, chahge them from "Filter 1+2: Cutoff" to "Filter1: Cutoff", to have unmodulated Filter2 controls
What dendy said, except in Stereo mode the filters 1 and 2 are linked (and the section name is changed to Filter L+R), one handles left and one handles right, so that is working as intended.
Obsidian has two mono filters that can be combined into one stereo filter. Global filter is stereo.
Definitely looking forward to some patches illustrating issue but my bets are it's just some hidden forgotten modulation route
It was happening to me often first few months with Obsidian ;-)
After i made 220+ factory patches (and another 150 which i have ready for future distribution, when i decide how) - i'm at 99.9999% sure there is no bug in filter routing :-)
But ok. If somebody founds bug, then big shame on me for not catching it yet
Thanks dendi and Stiksi, that was totally it. I did not notice the knob label changing. Sorry I did not check in and reply sooner. Thanks everybody.
