A good place to start would be to detect zero-crossing.
a zero crossing detector is much the same as [>~] followed by [rzero~ 1]. Therefore, first it does a destruction on the signal as harsh as the harshest fuzz with the highest possible gain. This removes most timbral features of the signal and boosts some others by the maximum possible amount, in a way that isn't perceptual at all (e.g. it's very DC-sensitive, among other things).
I don't know why anyone recommends zero-crossing detection. But if it's after some kind of [rzero~ 1], that already makes more sense, but that detects the positive and negative peaks instead. If you use [hip~] before [>~] instead, it will pick something intermediate to those.
