not sure if you guys know this song(s) but i’m going to use two songs that hopefully some of you guys know that can get you guys a better idea of what i want. basically, i want to reproduce the sound on my guitar thru a dual rectifier type amp.

chemical brothers - replacement killers - basically after the organ-surreal sounding bit in the beginning it kicks into this trancy techno sound. this is the sound that i’d like to reproduce on my guitar but i have no clue what kind of effects should i get in order to replicate it. i think it involves a flanger for that in and out effect and a filter for that techno sound. basically, all i care about is the techno sound and that dipping sound. none of the swirlls or anything like that, or else my bank account will die =(

blink 182 - roller coaster - there’s a part in the song where the guy stops singing and all that’s there are drums, bass and a techno/synthy sound. same as the chemical brothers example i talked about above. i think it’s a filter but i could be wrong.

if you guys can’t be bothered to download the songs or you don’t know them, then there is a similar product that produces what i’m trying to produce:

set the switch on the left to distortion and the knob to the fourth or maximum position. make sure the red light is on and click on the guitar. basically i want that sound but alot more brighter than that.

also, what is the diff between a filter and an envelope filter? or are they same?

It sounds like a lowpass filter to me with resonance so probably the Moogerfooger Low Pass Filter MF-101. It also has separate control of resonance.

A filter removes frequencies from the source signal e.g. a VCO or vocals, guitar and so on. There are several different types of filter, the most common in an analogue sizer are:
Low-pass: Remove high frequencies and pass thru low frequencies.
Band-pass: Removes low and high frequencies.
High-pass: Remove low frequencies and pass thru high frequencies.

Envelop-filter is actually a filter with an envelop controlling the filter. With a envelope connected to a filter/amplifier you can shapes the sound. In a synthesizer like the Voyager you can set attack times, decay times, sustain level and release time for both the filter and the amplifier.
In a guitar/bass pedal the envelope is usually a simple AD envelope (Attack, Decay) to get that classic 70’s sound often you can only set the level. Some pedals have envelope-follower, that analyze the incoming signal shape and then transfer it to the filter or amplifier in the pedal.

Best regards and good luck!
