Elliptic implements cascaded IIR filters and a built-in elliptical filter design. It is capable of low-pass, high-pass, or bandpass filtering with very steep slopes. The atten determines how much of the signal is attenuated outside the passband. Elliptic filters come with a trade-off for their steep slopes: they have a certain amount of ripple outside the passbands. A very small ripple (0.1 or 0.2 dB) produces very little ringing, whereas a large ripple (eg. 20 dB) produces a very strong harmonic ring. The filter design algorithm sometimes can't fulfill the design criteria -- a particular combination of cutoff frequencies, ripple, and attenuation. If that happens, the user is warned that the filter is not initialized, and the filter is bypassed. This may happen, for instance, if you ask for a very steep attenuation with very low ripple.

Under-sampling-based resonant lowpass filter, based on two sample & holds with a cosine crossfading between them. Each S&H samples at the moment it's faded out. The frequency of the crossfading and sampling of the input sets the cutoff. This leads to a infinitely steep cutoff, at the price of aliasing. Negative feedback is used for resonance at the cutoff frequency, a technique that I believe is new here. In addition to the traditional modulation options waveshaping of the crossfading signal is provided. This leads to distortion at the cutoff frequency. At extreme values (and assuming no feedback is used) that makes the effect closer to traditional under-sampling. Linear interpolation is used on the input signal to avoid the S&Hs being quantised to ChucK's sample rate; This technique causes quite a few interesting artifacts that result from the ratio between the frequency of the input and the cutoff frequency. To emphasise those it makes sense to try to minimise artifacts induced by the digital environment itself. Thanks to Rob Hordijk for sharing his insights there.
