Here's what Electro Harmonix say about the Nano Q-Tron Envelope Filter
Envelope controlled filter is an effect type that ventures beyond the mainstream yet is equally at home in a wide range of genres and equally effective on guitar, bass, keys, horns and more. Electro-Harmonix is a pioneer in this effect category and has been making envelope controlled filter pedals since the 1970s! The Nano Q-Tron springboards off that deep heritage.
Here’s how it works: The Nano Q-Tron responds to the user’s playing style and dynamics. The volume of the input signal it receives (also called the envelope) controls the cutoff or center frequency of a swept filter. This allows the Nano Q-Tron to create tone-altering effects ranging from subtle to dynamic, auto-wah to ultra-funky. It’s all about how you play and it’s super interactive.

Electro-Harmonix (EHX) is a legendary effects pedal company founded in 1968 by Mike Matthews, known for pioneering some of the most iconic sounds in music history. Based in New York City, EHX offers a vast range of pedals, from the classic Big Muff fuzz and Memory Man delay to innovative effects like the POG and Freeze. Renowned for their creativity, durability, and affordability, Electro-Harmonix pedals have shaped the tones of countless musicians across genres, from rock and punk to ambient and experimental music.
Envelope
An envelope filter effect pedal is a type of audio effect that alters the sound of an instrument based on the dynamics of the player’s performance, specifically how loudly or softly they play. It works by using an envelope follower, which tracks the amplitude (volume level) of the signal and controls a filter that modulates the sound accordingly. The result is a distinctive sound where the filter’s cutoff frequency is swept up or down in reaction to the player’s attack, creating a “wah” or “quack” effect.
Envelope filters are commonly used in genres like funk, electronic, and rock to add a dynamic, expressive quality to the sound. The pedal can produce a range of tones, from subtle, smooth sweeps to more pronounced, percussive filter effects. The effect is most noticeable when playing with strong dynamics, such as heavy picking or fingerstyle playing, as the intensity of the filter changes in real-time. Some popular envelope filter pedals include the Electro-Harmonix Q-Tron and the MXR Envelope Filter, both of which allow players to shape the effect’s response with adjustable sensitivity, attack, and filter range for greater tonal control.
Filter
A filter pedal is used to shape and modify an instrument’s tone by emphasizing or cutting specific frequency ranges, often creating unique sounds or effects. Filter pedals typically offer controls like cutoff frequency, resonance, and sensitivity to allow musicians to sculpt their tone, adding characteristics such as warmth, brightness, or subtle movement to their sound.
There are several types of filter pedals, including wah pedals, which are essentially a type of filter that sweeps through frequencies in response to the player’s foot movement, and envelope filters, which react to the dynamics of the playing (e.g., picking intensity) to create funky, automatic filtering effects. Filter pedals are widely used in genres like funk, rock, and electronic music, with popular brands like Electro-Harmonix, Moogerfooger, and MXR offering high-quality filter pedals that bring creativity and sonic exploration to a musician’s setup.

Nano
A nano pedal is a small, compact version of a traditional effects pedal, designed to provide powerful sound-shaping capabilities in a miniaturised form. These pedals are perfect for musicians with limited space on their pedalboards or those who need a portable setup without compromising on tone. Despite their smaller size, nano pedals can offer the same high-quality effects as their larger counterparts, such as overdrive, delay, reverb, or modulation.
Nano pedals are popular for their convenience and versatility, allowing musicians to fit more effects into a tight space or create a minimalist setup. Brands like Electro-Harmonix, MXR, and TC Electronic offer a range of nano pedals that deliver professional-grade sound in a compact and travel-friendly design. They are ideal for musicians looking to maintain a sleek and functional pedalboard while still having access to essential effects.
Pedal
A pedal is an electronic device that alters the sound of an electric guitar by applying various effects. Pedals are typically connected in a series between the guitar and amplifier, allowing guitarists to switch effects on and off with their feet while playing.
This enables musicians to quickly and easily change their sound, adding versatility and creativity to their performances.
Pedals are essential tools in many musical genres, including rock, blues, jazz, and metal, allowing artists to craft distinctive and dynamic soundscapes.
Once you buy one, you can’t stop and then you have to sell them and buy more.
