Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The DOD Envelope Filter 440 is a classic analog envelope filter and auto-wah pedal originally produced by DOD Electronics in 1977, delivering pick-attack-responsive filter sweeps with Sensitivity and Range controls. The DOD 440 became a widely used auto-wah with players including Jerry Garcia, who used it on the Grateful Dead's recordings. Later reissued under the DigiTech/DOD brand. An important pedal in envelope filter history.
The Smokin' Amp Co. Micro V Envelope Filter (V2) is a boutique envelope filter pedal that automatically sweeps a resonant filter based on playing dynamics, producing funky, vocal-like auto-wah textures without needing an expression pedal. Built by Smokin' Amp Co., a boutique builder known for constructing well-regarded circuit designs, the V2 revision reflects continued refinement of the Micro V envelope filter platform.
