What is a Filter?

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Hi, guys.</p> <p>I am just getting into synths (don't own any hardware synths yet - waiting for my next few payments to come in, maybe I'll get a Microbrute mk. I) and I am trying to learn how they work and, well, what's in the dang things! So, one thing I just CANNOT figure out about synths is what this 'filter' is. I am reading a lot about it in the literature and on forums. I tried reading a book by a guy named Chowning - that wasn't helpful. So... what are they? Sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm kind of a n00b.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/CharlesYbdis"> /u/CharlesYbdis </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/d2gdzp/what_is_a_filter/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/d2gdzp/what_is_a_filter/">[comments]</a></span>
