KORG Filter Ark 1.0.4
Filter Ark is a filter-design plugin from KORG that combines faithfully modeled classic filters — from the MS-20, Polysix, miniKORG 700s, and ARP ODYSSEY — with innovative modern filter types like physically modeled resonators and a vowel filter. Up to four filters can be routed together with deep modulation and macro controls, and the plugin can even generate its own sound using a built-in noise oscillator and scale quantizer.

About KORG Filter Ark 1.0.4 for Mac
Filter Ark is a filter-design plugin from KORG that builds on the company's long-running KORG Collection series, which has spent decades recreating KORG's most iconic instruments using its CMT (Component Modeling Technology). Rather than modeling a single instrument, Filter Ark puts the filter itself at the center of the creative process, combining faithfully modeled classic KORG and ARP filter circuits with entirely new modern filter designs in one flexible environment. What sets Filter Ark apart from a conventional filter plugin is its routing depth and dual identity as both a processing tool and a sound source. Up to four filters can be combined in series, parallel, feedback, and other configurations, letting users build signal paths that aren't possible with a single-filter effect. A built-in noise oscillator and cutoff-frequency scale quantizer also let Filter Ark generate its own rhythmic or tonal material, pushing it closer to a compact sound-design instrument than a typical insert effect. Filter Ark 1.0.4, released January 28, 2026 as a follow-up to its January 2026 debut (version 1.0.3), is a maintenance update focused on stability and quality-of-life fixes rather than new filter types. The plugin runs as an AU, VST3, or AAX plugin on macOS and Windows, and is also included as part of the broader KORG Collection 6 bundle.
