This is an Envelope Follower, and thus has, uh, you know, what a enveloppefollowe. In fact it is not empty dcrire is a kind of auto-wah and more rapid and slamming to make sounds or funky bizarrodes. And unlike an auto-wah, it is a priori impossible to do the same thing with a normal wah.

Technolgie analog pedals trs simple input / output jack, on / off switch, a knob to select the frquence on which the effect works, and a mini-switch for added bass.

The pedals are very small, plutt cool visually (if you like Electro-Harmonix and brushed aluminum trs and apparently solid.

Finally, food is the traditional Manir (phew), but to change the battery must dvisser 4 screws and open the two pedals in! Not super convenient, has fortunately not often happen.

UTILIZATION

The edition of the sounds is very simple:

* The targets frquence knob on the end, and the intensity of the same shot. At worst there is almost no audible effect, the sharper it is Submitted.

* The miniswitch adds bass or not. In practice, with my guitar mode "without bass" is almost unusable, due to volume decrease trs.

These are exactly the same as Doctor Q rglages classic, which has also disappeared from the catalog EH. I dduis the two pedals should be more or less identical.

SOUND QUALITY

The first I trsdu t: trs little effect Submitted silent, even putting a booster before, and produced especially acute when I was pushing very sibilant s high ropes.

Luckily I followed the advice donns here ( https://fr.audiofanzine.com/apprendre/faq_tips/index%2Cidproduit%2C26604%2Cmao%2Celectroharmonix_doctor_q.html )

Basically it is a component site of the indoor pedals, adjustable with a screwdriver and to target frquences concerned by the effect.

Aprsrglage (very easy couraging), the pedals are transfigured! We get funky sound (with the rhythmic rglage using the knob) or psychdliques (on solo). In addition the effect of the intensity Ragit mdiator game, allowing to get used to vary the attack and acqurir a game more expressive.

For cons, I still have not understood the intrt the switch "bass" is disabled when the volume is divided by two, in fact, easily, and starts blowing PDAL horribly! And it does not seem that this is a malfunction of my own. Well this is serious: you touch it and everything goes well.

OVERALL OPINION

In fact I ended up replacing it with the above MODEL: The Micro Q-Tron. Submitted same effect but with far more rglages possible.

It is my opinion a PDAL trs cool, not great but does its job without rclamer rglages hours. And besides it is really not CHRE ... But the little rglages possible and the low "power" of the effect is a little frustrating.

On the other hand, the NCESS rgler to get a good sound with his guitar is hard to admit I find, especially since it is mentioned nowhere in the instructions! If one does not know you can pass this cot compltement pedals, and it is a pity because it is perfect for small grants. It will give her a dish but if you just ...

For cons, I still wonder about the usefulness of the switch "bass" ...
