Here's a cool auto wah from Robert Penfold that can sound really funky and bubbly. In the soundclip the resonance and depth are maxed. I have adapted it for true bypass and added a volume pot since the output was alittle bit above unity. The controls are a bit finicky, especially the frequency controls that goes from low (so low that it kills the signal) to above the hearing range. I think a log pot work better here. I used a 2M resistor insted of the 1.8M and a BC108B transistor with good results. The 10K trimpot sets the input for the envelope follower. Adjust it until it sounds good and you get a "natural" sounding release.

Where in the board is the output?

From the volume pot, middle lug (lug 2), as written in the notes.

Hello, thanx for the layout, i finished it yesterday it is fun! I added resistors around the freq pot trying to avoid 'pops' ans hiss, it seems to maybe improve the useful range, but not sure. I still have pops in the low freq depending of the other pot settings but i can stand it :) i was wondering if the fact that i used 2x 1n914 instead of 2x1n34 may cause big difference in the sound? I don t really understand their job in this circuit.... have a good day
