07: Auto Wah

Wah is an effect that modifies the frequency characteristics of a filter over time, producing a unique tone. The wah effect can change in relation to the volume of the input signal, and/or cyclically.

Parameter

Value

Description

 

 

 

Filter Type

LPF, BPF

Type of filter

 

 

LPF: The wah effect will be applied

 

 

over a wide frequency range.

 

 

BPF: The wah effect will be applied

 

 

over a narrow frequency range

Polarity

DOWN, UP

When using the volume of the in-

 

 

put signal to control the wah effect,

 

 

this setting determines whether the

 

 

frequency of the filter will be

 

 

moved upward (UP) or downward

 

 

(DOWN).

Frequency

0–127

Adjusts the frequency at which the

 

 

wah effect will apply.

Peak

0–127

Adjusts the amount of the wah ef-

 

 

fect that will occur in the range of

 

 

the center frequency.

 

 

Set a higher value for Q to narrow

 

 

the range to be affected.

Trigger Sens

0–127

Adjusts the sensitivity with which

 

 

the wah effect is controlled.

Depth

Ps Low Freq

50–4000 Hz

Frequency of the low range

Ps Low Gain

-15– +15 dB

Gain of the low range

Ps Hi Freq

2000–20000 Hz

Frequency of the high range

Ps Hi Gain

-15– +15 dB

Gain of the high range

08: Humanizer

This adds a vowel character to the sound, making it similar to a human voice.

Rate

0.05–10.0 Hz,

Frequency at which the two vowels

will be switched

Depth

0–127

Effect depth

 

 

With a setting of 0, it will be fixed at

 

 

Vowel 1.

Trigger Sens

-60–0 dB, LFO

Level at which the two vowels will

 

 

be switched

 

 

-60–0 dB: When the specified level

 

 

is exceeded, the sound will change

 

 

to the other vowel at the frequency

 

 

(speed) specified by Rate.

 

 

LFO: The two vowel sounds will al-

 

 

ternate at the frequency specified

 

 

by Rate, regardless of the level.

Ps Low Freq

50–4000 Hz

Frequency of the low range

Ps Low Gain

-15– +15 dB

Gain of the low range

Ps Hi Freq

2000–20000 Hz

Frequency of the high range
