well the BEX FX Street Sweeper is a Wah enclosed phaser?

CV thing + Waveforms![]()
More knobs (control)
Shit yeah waveforms, I missed that. Mod pedals need to get more involved with cool waveforms. Thankfully that actually does seem to be happening.

I'd buy this.

my old 4MS Tremulus Lune had this. It sounded fucking awesome.

Yeah that would be wicked pimp, especially if you could set the size of the steps that the exp pedal sweeps through. Eg semitones, tones etc.

thats more or less what the whammy in my multifx does. except idk about semitones. it might, but it might just sweep through the notes between the sweep.
but yeah, hypothetically you'd just need one more knob for sweep range. 4 or 3 knobs, a switch, and an expression pedal could all probably fit in the footprint of a whammy, too.

i'm kinda obsessed with pitch shifters, so i've always been trying to think of the most comprehensive pitch shift pedal that isn't made by Eventide and doesn't involve presets and stuff
