Great idea!

I'd want the envelope follower to adjust the depth of the trem, not the speed. I'd want to set my speed to a fixed rate (for a certain song, for example) and then let the picking dynamics dictate the depth of the effect.

Here's a cool project that has a voltage-controlled envelope filter:

You could steal the envelope section for your tremolo, perhaps.

If you made exactly what you just described, we have a deal. Personally, I don't require anything more....maybe an expression for rate when in normal trem mode, but that'd just be the icing....don't need icing

I had an idea for a trem today that would compliment yours. PM me if you would like to collaborate.

How about an inverse switch to go from heavier = rate faster >< heavier = rate slower?

:idk:

Incidentally..isn't there already a tremolo with pick-sensitive depth? it just came out, but it's the Vicious Cricket by Flickinger Tone-Boxes.
