HiPass

Tame the lows. Maximize your headroom.
The HiPass by Shakmat is a compact, quad-channel high-pass filter module designed to clean up your mix and enhance clarity. With two pairs of fixed-frequency 3-pole filters, it’s the perfect utility for eliminating unwanted sub frequencies and DC offset from your audio path.

The top two filters cut at 30Hz, ideal for removing extreme lows, rumble, or DC components introduced by filters, FM, or feedback patches. The lower two filters cut at 100Hz, just like the low-cut sections found on professional mixing consoles—perfect for tightening up your mix and creating space for low-end instruments.

Skiff-friendly and easy to integrate into any modular setup, HiPass is a subtle yet powerful tool for refining your system’s output.
Available as an assembled module only.
