A: Allpass filters are filters that have what we call a flat frequency response; they neither emphasize nor de-emphasize any part of the spectrum.

Rather, they displace signals in time as a function of frequency. The time displacement accomplished by an allpass filter is specified by its phase response. Allpass filters are used in circuit design to perform various frequency-dependent time-alignment or time-displacement functions. Audio applications include filter banks, speaker crossovers, and reverberators. Figure 1 Figure 1, above, shows the transfer function of an allpass filter. Ian Shepard.
