Wob Wob Wob

Hey peeps,

I plan to create an effect that takes the pitch of the input signal and generates the classic “wob” sound (heard in dub tracks) at that pitch, I plan to also control the length of the output “wob” using an expression pedal.

I am having a little trouble finding a filter which replicates this sound however, I was hoping someone here might know a resource that would have a similar filter or some sort of a clue on how I could generate the sound from an oscillator.

Thanks.

Could you post some audio/video links of exactly the sound you mean?


starts just before the 1 min mark

Further reading tells me I need either 2 or 3 sin waves, slightly out of sync. I have read I should combine a saw wave with a square wave, slowly getting closer to something to try, input appreciated!

there is a tube fuzz over the effect if you were wondering, so try and picture the effect without the distortion.

Sounds like a squarewave tremolo to me

There’s actual a dual tremolo pedal called the Wobbler

There is a dual tremolo Patch in the OWL patch library already, you could get some inspiration from it!
