I checked the Electro-Harmonix website. The only pedals in the "envelope" section are the Dr. Q, the Nano Bassballs, the Q-Tron and the Mini Q-Tron. The Q-Tron+ isn't there anymore. Not in trapezoid or XO form.

I mean, Orange instead of Green? No contest. |

The EHX website has been undergoing a lot of bizarre changes. I've seen plenty of odd glitches in the past week or so since the site came up.
Wait a month or two before you start panicking.

Well, I guess I can still have dreams about owning an envelope filter with an effects loop...I heard putting a fuzz in there would make it sound cool...
