Whammy Effects

In today’s music industry, it seems that every album on the charts, whether it be Country, Rock, Industrial, or Alternative, are using the Whammy technology in some shape or form. Whether it be a subtle chorus Detune, or an all out 2 octave Whammy Dive, this thing is a definite attention getter, and first-call studio effect. At this rate, the Whammy effect could possibly log-in as much studio time as Chet Atkins.

Whammy Effect Parameters

Whammy On/Off Turns the Whammy module on or off. When the module is turned off, the signal will only continue to pass through the module if the dry level is turned up.

FX Level

This parameter lets you select the overall FX level mix of the Whammy Effect module. Ranges from: Off to 100%.

Dry Level

This parameter lets you select the amount of Dry signal that is included in the Whammy effect. Ranges from: Off to

 

100%.

Balance

This parameter allows you to pan the Dry signal either to the Right or the Left in the stereo soundfield. Ranges from

 

Left 99 to Right 99.

Min Shift

This parameter sets the minimum pedal shift level of the Whammy effect. Ranges from: -72 (6 octaves down), to 24

 

(2 octaves up).

Max Shift

This parameter set the maximum pedal shift level of the Whammy effect. Ranges from: -72 (6 octaves down), to 24

 

(2 octaves up).

Min Detune

This parameter sets the minimum pedal level of detune effect. Ranges from: -50% (down 50 cents), to 50% (up 50

 

cents).

Max Detune

This parameter sets the maximum pedal level of detune effect. Ranges from: -50% (down 50 cents), to 50% (up 50

This parameter is used to position the Whammy effect in the Stereo soundfield. Ranges from: Left 99 to Right 99.

Auto Wah

Break out the Bell-bottom jeans and the Disco mirror balls, because the Auto-Wah is here to play. The Auto Wah is a great effect use when you want a nasally wah-type effect, but you don’t want to do the leg work. The Auto Wah utilizes a sensitivity detector that reads the input signal, then simulates the action of a wah pedal.
