# Audio High Pass Effect

> Reference for the Audio High Pass Effect, which passes high frequencies and cuts off lower frequencies.

The **Highpass Effect** passes high frequencies of an AudioMixer group and cuts off signals with frequencies lower than the **Cutoff Frequency**.

## Properties


**The AudioGroup Inspector displays the configurable properties of an Audio High Pass Effect.:**

| ***Property:*** | ***Function:***                                                               |
| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Cutoff freq** | Highpass cutoff frequency in Hertz (range 10.0 to 22000.0, default = 5000.0). |
| **Resonance**   | Highpass resonance quality value (range 1.0 to 10.0, default = 1.0).          |

## Details

The **Resonance** (short for Highpass Resonance Quality Factor) determines how much the filter's self-resonance is dampened. Higher highpass resonance quality indicates a lower rate of energy loss, that is the oscillations die out more slowly.
