So I need some suggestions.
I currently use a kangra filter fuzz by walrus audio connected to an expression pedal for filter sweeps needed during certain songs. It's fine and may be the best a man can get. But I kinda Invision something self contained in expression/wah style enclosure. I don't really use the fuzz side of the pedal so it's taking up space. Trouble is I don't think I want a wah wah. In my head I want the kind of filtering that are used in synths or maybe more specifically a Roland TB 03. Think like acid house music or techno. So a treadle type pedal with resonance and cut off controls etc Is this available for us guitarists?

If you have any ideas holla!

Tycobrahe wah pedals do this lovely (if spenny): Wilson do a Freaker which is a copy. I'd really like one.

Out of interest, have you tried the filter on the Ottobit on an exp pedal? If memory serve, it gets pretty gnarly.

Also, could be a larf, maybe a bit big

This looks pretty ideal!

Yeah it's a beautiful filter! Unfortunately I use my current filter with a different fuzz. In the same song as I use the ottobit as a different fuzz. So I would kinda need two to make it work. Or presets and expression on the ottobit.

Yeah looks good but as you say probably too big.

First, great idea. I can say that a proper Low pass filter makes a HUGE difference compared to a wah, especially with a resonance control. I wanted to put our Happiness pedal in a wah enclosure SO BAD but the parts were expensive and shitty from our suppliers. Never panned out, obviously.

ugh, Wilson now do a mini Freaker too. http://www.wilsoneffects.com/mini-freaker-wah-1

Yeah I saw that. I would be happy with either but trying to find one in this country is proving tricky.

This place does actual synth filters in pedals:

But none of them are expression pedals, and, weirdly, none have expression pedal inputs, either, I think?

They do a resonant filter pedal that does have control voltage input minijacks, but how you'd get those to work with an expression pedal I don't know.
