MetaFilter is a powerful multimode filter plugin that delivers rich analog warmth and depth through Waves' Virtual Voltage technology. This creative effects processor offers a broad range of sound-shaping possibilities, combining classic filter tones with modern digital control. Its design emphasizes fat, full-bodied analog character while maintaining precision and flexibility.

The plugin features three independent modulators—a 16-step sequencer, an LFO, and an envelope follower with sidechain capability—that allow detailed modulation of cutoff, resonance, and delay time. These modulation sources enable dynamic effects like sweeping filters, rhythmic gating, tremolo, auto wah, and complex modulating delays with saturation buildup, giving producers extensive creative options.

MetaFilter provides intuitive controls and MIDI Learn functionality, making it easy to customize presets and integrate with MIDI controllers or keyboards. This flexibility supports live performance scenarios, allowing artists to manipulate the filter cutoff in real-time. The combination of analog-inspired sound quality and seamless MIDI control makes MetaFilter a standout tool for producing expressive filter effects.
