I just completed the Duck Box envelope filter and need some help.
Before describing the issue I should note that when the box is working properly, it sounds great. Good ‘quack’.

Thanks for any help on this one.
Before describing the issue I should note that when the box is working properly, it sounds great. Good ‘quack’.
The issue I’m seeing:
- If I power up the pedal with the effect/footswitch disengaged (bypassed sound is fine) and then engage the effect, the sound is barely audible but I can hear the auto-wah effect. I can sometimes ‘wake up’ the effect by striking the strings very hard (way beyond the dynamic that is normally needed to drive the auto-wah envelope) but not always.
- Similarly, if I power up the pedal with the effect engaged, it works fine. But disengaging and reengaging the effect results in the same low volume issue.
- More intermittent, but I can also reproduce the same issue when toggling the blend switch.
- Even more intermittent, but I have engaged the effect and get more of a volume swell (not a filter sweep) with the highest volume level being slightly distorted. Weird…
Thanks for any help on this one.
