In middle and right inlets: Integer values are converted to floats and can be sent in the two right inlets to change the center frequency and resonance of the filter. By default, the center frequency is expressed in Hz, where the allowable range is from 0 to one quarter of the current sampling rate. If a signal is connected to one of the inlets, a number received in that inlet is ignored. The values are sampled once every signal vector.

In middle and right inlets: A float can be sent in the two right inlets to change the center frequency and resonance of the filter. By default, the center frequency is expressed in Hz, where the allowable range is from 0 to one quarter of the current sampling rate. For convenience, svf~ has two additional input modes that use the more conventional input range, 0 - 1. (see the linear and radians messages). If a signal is connected to one of the inlets, a number received in that inlet is ignored. The values are sampled once every signal vector.

In either inlet: Sets the frequency input mode to Hz (the default).

Clears the object's sample-memory in case of a blow-up.

In any inlet: Sets the frequency input mode to linear (0 - 1). Linear mode is simply a scaled version of the standard Hz mode, except that values in the 0-1 range traverse the full frequency range.

In any inlet: Sets the frequency input mode to radians (0 - 1). Radians mode lets you set the center frequency directly -- while the input has the same range (0-1), the output has a curved frequency response that is closer to the exponential pitch scale of the human ear.

In left inlet: Signal to be filtered.

In middle inlet: Sets the filter center frequency in Hz.

In right inlet: Sets the bandpass filter "Q" - roughly, the sharpness of the filter - where Q is defined as the filter bandwidth divided by the center frequency. Useful Q values are typically between 0.01 and 500.
