Members joems Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I'm wondering what are the better ones out there. For a nice Funky sound/rythm. I only tried the MXR's Auto Q which I think it just simply sucks! and Guyatone's Ultron is waaaay to expensive. may between 100-150 price range (if there is any).

Members letveronafall Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I'd also recommend the qtron or qtron +, not the micro version either.. I used to have a dod envelope filter, it was ok but really a one trick pony... I'm still hoping to find a mutron sometime to try one of those out myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cbpickin Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I've had a handful and I'd say check out the Maxon AF9. The Rastop is also good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members orange worker Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 the tonefactor analogue filter is pretty sweet, but was too trebley for me. if you can get a mutron they're worth every penny. I got the micro and its nice and dark, i love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members orourke Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I think the Digitech Synth Wah and Bass Synth Wah are under rated. It does the regular auto wah effect, but has some wild synth settings that don't really work with chords but freakin' awsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bassin' 'Round Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 ...the AF-9 is the ONLY way to go...forget about price, which is super reasonable used, the Maxon is the single best offering available IMHO...one of the greatest bargains of ANY type pedal...

Members andreas Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I assume you don't mean "auto wah" literally (an LFO controlled wah effect that sweeps up/down at a fixed rate)? If so, another vote for the AF-9, DOD440 or DOD FX25. If you want a very big sweep, almost on the nasty side, the FX25 will provide. The AF-9 is a lot smoother and less dramatic, which also makes it easier to set up (it doesn't respond as violently to differences in the input level). The 440 is somewhere in between those two. The AF-9 has more options available, as it can be set up as low-pass (the "classic" envelope filter effect), high-pass (basically the reverse - the filter still "opens up" as you hit harder, but from a very trebly setting. Wen you play softly, the bass is reduced rather than the treble) and bandpass (your basic wah setting). The others are simpler, with range/sensitivity and level controls while the other parameters (filter type and such) are fixed. Here are a few options for you: http://www.tonefactor.com/products.php?cat=75 /Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members le barb Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 as you are going for an envelope filter you can exclude the worm and the flanger hoax, they don't have it.I only know the boss aw-3. I'm getting rid of it cause the sound is not satisfying (maybe too digital?). it has a lot of features and possible settings, but I might go for a qtron or the af-9.the emma thing has built an immaculate reputation.

Members seifukusha Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 i had the af9 too and it was rad.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TechBrother Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I play through a bassballs and that's a cool effect (even for guitar). With the distortion switch engaged you get some really nasty voice-like tones. Without the dist. you get a real sweet auto wah effect. I was considering getting a Mini Q-tron. Any reason why I should go w/ the bigger versions? I don't plan on using the effects loop on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kubenzi Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 the trinity might be interesting.ive heard its allright as a wah with a regular expression pedal not the thing it comes with,the auto wah and filter settings sounded good on the clips though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members p3dalwh0re Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I had an AF-9, it was OK. To be honest, I prefer the Boss TW-1. They can be had on eBay for under a hundred bux, and are stuffed full of analog goodness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Hanglow Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 Nurse quacky is a nice envelope filter if you have a soldering iron. It's based on the EH Dr Q. No auto wah though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
