Exciting filter plug-ins don't come along that often, but Volcano 2 is one of the most inspirational effects we've used in a long time.
On a purely aesthetic level, it looks far nicer than the garish blue and orange of the original version, but the differences are more than just skin deep.
Pros:
- Sounds gorgeous.
- Attractive, clear interface.
- Useful sidechain capabilities.
- 11 different filter characteristics.
- Sophisticated modulation routing.
- VST3-compatible.
Cons:
- No notch or vowel filters.
Verdict:
Aside from the lack of more exotic filter types, Volcano 2 is hard to fault.
Rating: 4.5/5
