Honestly its weird that they dont have a hp and lp setting like isnt that like a classic dj effect? maybe it has program morphing idk. Have you considered *chough* tow kaoss pads? Like you could use them for alot more than just filters
I most definitely have considered more than one Kaoss Pad while thinking about this.

They'll let you shape your sound, but not in the same way as boards of canada. The closest that you'll find to a stereo filter in the pedal world is a boss eq-200, if you set the sliders to simulate a filter. But it definitely won't sound the same either, and lacks resonance.
Do you definitely need stereo? It's pretty rare to find stereo filters in the analog realm, especially analog highpass lowpass pairs. If you're ok with digital, then a Kaoss Pad is definitely going to be your best option. If you need analog, maybe look at the minifooger drive or moogerfooger lowpass. Otherwise, you'll need to track down a Mutronics Mutator or build a small eurorack rig.
I definitely do not mind digital. Most of my board is.
Having played quite a bit with resonant filters in the vst effects on my computer, that is not a sound I am very fond of, and not one that I hear a lot in BoC. Or at least, not so that it is apparent to me although I am sure you are most definitely correct. Mostly though, it just occurred to me that they lowpass every sound, especially anything melodic. And then I realized that the bass often has a space carved out to itself so they must highpass just about everything too.
Huh, thanks for this. Last time I tried to build a pedal, misadventure was definitely the word for it but if I could find someone who didn't solder like a game of whack-a-mole like I do, this is potentially appealing.
Just saw this one:
https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/pro-filter/ It has a resonant filter, if that is in fact important. The parts list is shorter too!
