Filter levels shouldn't exceed 100 as well. But what about the resonance
values ?

It depends on the waveforms and how many sources there are etc

with the pre filter - 50 is a good guide, I sometimes like 33....

Now iwith teh 12db Obie filter, the higher the resoannce the greater the
overdrive
so with resonance up high aroudn 85-90, I like to keen the pre-filter levels
under 20.
or below 15 for pure tones, becuas ethe of the volume boost from the high
resonance,
this is not a problem.
But it is annoying when trying to combine the 12db and 24 db filters
together, a sthe 24db
filter has the oppoiste responce :(

The post filter mixer is more subject to taste. Again 50 is a good guide,
but just tweak till it sounds good.
In time you will hear the differences. Using the sine waves is a good
learning tool
