The Expression Pedal
The ME-20 features on on-board expression pedal to control volume, as well as a wah
effect. The built-in switch underneath the expression pedal makes it quick and easy to
toggle between controlling volume or wah. Here’s how:
Press the pedal all the way forward, and then give it a stronger push. When the WAH

pedal is controlling volume.
Each time you press the pedal forward and give it a solid push, it toggles between

wah and volume.
