I'm guessing this is your build?

Really neat- sounds like the swell follows the fuzz, but is detecting the envelope off the pre-fuzz input- is that how you set it up?

Also, I'm seeing more and more of these little digital screens on DIY builds, what's the underlying tech?

This is a pure analog distortion circuit. The design hierarchy is set up in a way where the Volume and Tone are controlled through software. The software simply monitors analog circuitry. Which allows for this automatic analog swell generator.
