However I am damn sure the Source Audio Spectrum Intelligent Filter will get so close you won't tell the difference.

I've been listening to a bunch of Aswad stuff and they were a lot more experimental than I would have imagined ( although no stranger to the cheesy cover version as well).

That's too old a recording to have anything like that on it though - it's a modern digital pedal, not really a modded envelope filter, although it can do that type of sound. It actually just sounds like an envelope filter to me, possibly with compression which tends to make it sound more like that.

I've had success with my Zoom B1xON. Cheap as chips but the synth sounds are good, as are the amp models and fx and the synth tracking is decent.
If you can find one, they're not to expensive and come up used for between £30-40.
It's just amazing.

I eventually remembered the Laswell track, this is from 1984 and it's pretty similar - I probably haven't heard it for ten years so remarkably similar for my brain to go oh doesn't that sound like that although this may be more obviously envelope filter:
