The Electro-Harmonix Micro Q-Tron is a compact analog envelope filter, condensing EHX's classic Q-Tron auto-wah circuit into a smaller pedalboard-friendly enclosure. It tracks playing dynamics to automatically sweep a resonant filter, producing funky, vocal-like auto-wah textures without needing an expression pedal, driven purely by how hard the player picks.
The Mr. Black FWONKBETA is a dynamic envelope filter pedal from Mr. Black (Portland, Oregon), a US boutique manufacturer founded by John Michael Kutcher known for lush reverb, modulation, and ambient effects. The FWONKBETA delivers touch-sensitive envelope filter auto-wah that responds to pick attack for funky, expressive filter effects, reflecting Mr. Black boutique construction quality in a compact format.
