Auto volume swell

[Merton]

I'm sure I've seen a pedal which does this but can't remember what it is... Basically want to combine it with a synthy/fuzzy effect to remove the attack from the notes. If there is one, can you change the length of the swell? Think of it as an auto volume pedal....

The EHX microsynth does this, among all the other stuff. It's what the attack delay slider does. It's probably overkill if you just need a pedal for that though!

There was the Boss Slow Gear...

Ah the Boss Slow Gear, that's the fella! Yes maybe the microsynth is a bit much for the one effect. Anyone want to build me one, or know anyone who might...?

[Merton]

Ah, the VFE Bumblebee and Bumblebee Jr look good. None in the UK that I can find though, haha!

IIRC there was a Behringer copy of the Boss Slow Gear. If you can live with Behringer build quality (plastic enclosures), that might be an option.

Good call - a dead cheap way of finding out if it works the way I want. £21 on Amazon! Cheers

Guyatone also do the SV2 Slow Volume.

If you're handy with a soldering iron, BYOC do a clone of the Slow Gear.
