Filter pedals are famous for producing quirky, otherworldly, and unique sounds. They are versatile devices that let you shape your guitar tone creatively or transform it completely. Filter pedals are utilized effectively across a broad range of genres but are a particularly notable feature in funk playing styles. Most filters use a low-frequency oscillator, and some can even alter the shape of the generated signal producing sawtooth, triangle, or square waves. Such synth-like qualities let your guitar’s sound rise from the ordinary.
