what's your opinion on this pedal used?

bottledtone

I built a custom pedal for bass player (not for sale here, just honest opinion wanted)
I had fun when it was in my hands, and lost demo's I took when my data card crashed. So was happy to see this link to a clip of it.

An envelope follower? Cool tonality...

bottledtone

Yeah, exactly that. Very limited for what you use it for but was loads of fun when it was with me.

Jazz bass->envelope filter is the perfect funk sound. This one sounds particularly cool. The range is dialled in well for this bass and I like that the resonance isn't too pronounced.
Was this Mutron/Qtron inspired or Bassballs based?

please explain what an envelope follower actually does?
the technical stuff i read didnt make much sense?
The bass did sound awesome though!

It's an auto-wah - like rocking the pedal of a wah up and down based on how hard you play.

Much easier explanation! haha!
Thanks Peter ?

Its a modded BassBalls yeah. That twin freq works well for bass.
I think of it as a auto-'quack'...
