The wah effect creates a unique tone by changing the
frequency response characteristics of a filter.
RELEASE *3
0–100
Adjusts the time from when the signal
level drops below the threshold until
when limiting is removed.
LO THRES *4
0–100
In the Low Frequency Range, when the
input signal level exceeds this thresh-
old level, limiting will be applied.
LO RATIO *4
1:1–
∞
:1
In the Low Frequency Range, this se-
lects the compression ratio used with
signals in excess of the threshold level.
Higher values create a stronger com-
pression effect.
HI THRES *4
0–100
In the High Frequency Range, when
the input signal level exceeds this
threshold level, limiting will be ap-
plied.
HI RATIO *4
1:1–
∞
:1
In the High Frequency Range, this se-
lects the compression ratio used with
signals in excess of the threshold level.
Higher values create a stronger com-
pression effect.
XOVER F L (Crossover Frequency Low) *4
32Hz–315Hz This sets the frequency dividing the ul-
tra low- and low-frequency ranges.
XOVER F M (Crossover Frequency Middle) *4
100Hz–4.00kHz This sets the frequency dividing the
low- and high-frequency ranges.
XOVER F H (Crossover Frequency High) *4
2.50kHz–10.0kHz This sets the frequency dividing the
high- and ultra high-frequency ranges.
DRIVE *5
0–100
Adjusts the range (time) over which
low-level signals are boosted.
Larger values will result in longer sus-
tain.
LEVEL
0–100 Adjusts the volume.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
WAH
Parameter/
Range Explanation
ON/OFF
ON, OFF Turns the WAH effect on/off.
MODE
Selects the wah mode.
TOUCH
You can produce a wah effect with the fil-
ter changing in response to the guitar/
bass level.
PEDAL
The wah effect will be controlled in real
time by an expression pedal connected to
the FOOT SW/EXP PEDAL jack.
TYPE
Selects the wah mode.
TOUCH
LPF This creates a wah effect over a wide fre-
quency range.
BPF This creates a wah effect in a narrow fre-
quency range.
PEDAL
CRY WAH This models the sound of the CRY BABY
wah pedal popular in the ‘70s.
VO WAH This models the sound of the VOX V846.
FAT WAH This is a wah sound featuring a bold tone.
LIGHT
WAH
This wah has a refined sound with no un-
usual characteristics.
7STR WAH
*1
This expanded wah features a variable
range compatible with seven-string and
baritone guitars.
BASS
WAH *2
This wah has been specially adapted for
use in the bass registers.
Inclusion of the low-frequency range in
the wah sound produces a robust wah ef-
fect, with no dilution of the sound.
RESO
WAH
This completely original effect offers en-
hancements on the characteristic reso-
nances produced by analog synth filters.
POLARITY *3
Selects the direction in which the filter will change in re-
sponse to the input.
DOWN The frequency of the filter will fall.
UP The frequency of the filter will rise.
SENS (Sensitivity) *3
0–100
Adjusts the sensitivity at which the filter
will change in the direction determined by
the POLARITY setting.
Higher values will result in a stronger re-
sponse. With a setting of 0, the strength of
picking will have no effect.
