+@section crossover
+Split audio stream into several bands.
+
+This filter splits audio stream into two or more frequency ranges.
+Summing all streams back will give flat output.
+
+The filter accepts the following options:
+
+@table @option
+@item split
+Set split frequencies. Those must be positive and increasing.
+
+@item order
+Set filter order, can be @var{2nd}, @var{4th} or @var{8th}.
+Default is @var{4th}.
+@end table

 @section crystalizer
 Simple algorithm to expand audio dynamic range.
