I'm considering buying an envelope filter, although i already have a EHX BMS, and would be using it in "heavier" music; in the vein of Isis etc. I can see it being really neat with fuzz, whammy, chorus etc, but i only ever hear them being used in funk (for the most part). I think they sound cool as ****, and could be great for leads.
Ideas? Examples? |

+1 to the Atomic Bitchwax, too. That dude's tone is about 95% Bassballs.  |

Link in sig to samples. There's a lot of other players on here who do the same.
