FabFilter

I discovered a potential new bug in Pro Q 2. It occurs when trying to use notch filters in linear phase mode. I added a video link as it's hard to describe in text.

Video cut out because I ran out of space on my phone, but I confirmed that the problem is with linear phase and notch filters, both zero phase and dynamic phase are fine.

The same problem happens in Triumph, meaning that it's not a Pro Tools problem.

Hi Sivert,

Thanks for reporting this issue! Could you please send us the particular setting that causes the behavior as an ffp preset? Then we can try to reproduce it here!

Thanks,

Hi Sivert,

Thanks! I can reproduce the issue and we will fix it in the upcoming bugfix update.

Linear phase is a junk in fabfilter, it sounds like a fade-in destorying or skipping all the needed transients in sound

That is due to the physical nature of linear phase and all LP plugins behave like this... And it usually is most audible when having a steep filter in the low frequencies with a high frequency resoluton.
