Doctor Q - Envelope Follower
Unleash your inner funk maestro with the Electro-Harmonix Doctor Q - a captivating envelope follower filter that transforms your guitar into a dynamic, expressive voice. Inspired by the iconic auto-wah pedals of the 1970s, the Doctor Q injects your playing with a touch-sensitive, organic filter sweep that dances in perfect harmony with your every nuance. At the heart of this pedal lies a responsive analog circuit that analyzes the attack and decay of your notes, opening and closing a resonant filter in real-time. The harder you dig in, the more the filter opens, yielding a pronounced, vocal-like sweep. Ease up on the strings, and the effect becomes more subtle and touch-responsive. A single Range knob allows you to fine-tune the intensity and width of the sweep, while the Bass switch ensures low-end clarity, making the Doctor Q equally at home on guitar or bass. The Doctor Q's vintage-inspired analog design and classic "Big Box" enclosure evoke the golden age of envelope-controlled filters, a sound that has graced the riffs of funk and rock icons for decades. Whether you're chasing the quacking, percussive tones of vintage funk, sculpting expressive lead lines, or exploring uncharted sonic territories, the Doctor Q puts dynamic, touch-sensitive filtering at your fingertips. Prepare to unlock a new dimension of expression and let your playing truly come alive.
