Env Filter: Mutron or Diphtonizer?

[luks999]

Hi all,

Im thinking on building an env filter / auto wah kinda pedal soon

What pedal do you guys prefer: The Mutron III or the Diphtonizer?
am i missing an important one?

Thanks

Meatball :-)

Yep, meatball definitely, I've made all 3. I'd suggest the dipthonizer also

I guess I'm the odd one out but I prefer the mu-tron (nautilus). The meatball is highly tweakable but you can add extra controls to the nautilus and have the same features. I can't give a technical reason but I find the nautilus sounds better and reacts better. To me the nautilus just has more of that classic sound I want. I have added attack and decay controls to mine and plan on adding  sensitivity control and blend control on my next build using the naughty fish board. Maybe the difference in power supply plays a part.
