Frequency bands reacting to each axis on a 3D visualiser

So I'm trying to create a 3D Audio-Reactive visualiser and I want the low, mids and high frequencies to make the 3D shape react on one axis each: Low on the X-Axis, Mid on the Y-Axis and Highs on the Z-Axis. Is there a way to do so? I've attached what my project looks like so far below.

I'm not sure that a state-variable filter (svf~) object is the best approach to what you wish to do - something like a set of cascaded crossover filters using cross~ or an FFT-based approach using the fffb~ object might give you better results. Max 8 has some fine searching built into the application, so perhaps that advice might serve as a starting point.
