Frequently Asked Questions

The envelope follower reacts to your playing dynamics, making the phasing intensity swell and recede with your picking or strumming – it's much more responsive than a simple LFO.
It’s surprisingly versatile. You can absolutely dial in subtle, shimmering phasing; the Mix control allows for blending the effect with the dry signal for a more transparent feel.
Start with the LFO speed around noon, set the Mix low, and then adjust the Attack and Depth knobs to get a feel for how the envelope follower interacts with your playing.
