Envelope controlled filter is an effect type that ventures beyond the
mainstream yet is equally at home in a wide range of genres and equally
effective on guitar, bass, keys, horns and more. Electro-Harmonix is a
pioneer in this effect category and has been making envelope controlled
filter pedals since the 1970s! The Nano Q-Tron springboards off that
deep heritage.
Here’s how it works: The Nano Q-Tron responds to the user’s playing
style and dynamics. The volume of the input signal it receives (also
called the envelope) controls the cutoff or center frequency of a swept
filter. This allows the Nano Q-Tron to create tone-altering effects
ranging from subtle to dynamic, auto-wah to ultra-funky.
QUICK SPECS:
- Vol (Volume) knob which controls the pedal’s output volume
- Drive Control adjusts its filter sweep sensitivity and how the pedal responds to the user’s playing dynamics
- Q Control sets the peak bandwidth of the filter and determines how subtle or dramatic the effect will be
- LP BP HP Mode Switch controls what frequency range the filter will
pass. LP (low pass) emphasizes the lows, BP (band pass) the midrange and
HP (high pass) the highs
- Pedalboard friendly, compact, rugged enclosure
- True Bypass
- Comes equipped with a 9Volt battery and can also be powered by an optional 9Volt power supply.
