I often receive a puzzled look from people when I tell them I use an envelope filter effect. They usually ask, "why do they call it that?" To which I respond, "ummm...I don't know." What is the "envelope" in envelope filter a reference to?

Scrimbo asks: What is it that gives the Triple Peak settings on the Bass Envelope Filter such a vocal sound and what can I do to embellish that human quality to the noise it makes?

Joey Provolone asks: I was going to buy your Multiwave Distortion until I found out it doesn’t have true-bypass. Why would you make a pedal without true-bypass?

Thomas Nunzio asks: How is foldback distortion different from normal distortion?

James Teaneck asks: When using Hot Hand, is it more effective to move the ring side to side or up and down?
