3. ACOUSTIC
Wanna go “unplugged” without the hassle of switching guitars and amps? Enter
the acoustic guitar simulator - a clever effect that magically converts an electric
guitar’s sound into that of an acoustic. It works best with a single coil (read: low
output) pickup in the neck position, especially when paired with the BLACK 2x12
amp model.
4. VOX WAH
This effect is modelled on the legendary VOX Wah pedal, the V847. Thanks to its
unique “throaty” tone, the V847 is the only Wah pedal many professionals will con-
sider stepping on. When used wisely, this pedal can either make your guitar cry
like a baby or howl like a man possessed!
USEFUL TONE HINT: A great tonal trick that’s employed by many guitarists,
including some who are household names, is to find a “sweet spot” within the range
of their Wah pedal and then leave it there. This is often called stuck-Wah (imagine
that!) and, when used tastefully, can be very effective as it produces a very distinc-
tive sound that will cut through any mix. You can dial in a stuck-Wah “sweet spot”
with your TONE control in a heartbeat. Try it, it’s cool...
STEP ON IT! Yet another reason to buy the optional foot controller! Yep, you’ve
guessed it — you can use the pedal of the foot controller to control VOX WAH.
5. AUTO WAH
The lazy man’s Wah pedal! Only kidding...this quirky but useful effect allows you to
create an automatic “Wah” effect that varies with your picking dynamics (i.e. how
hard or soft you hit the strings).
[1] “BASS” 0.0...10.0 Adjusts the bass.
[2] “BODY” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the body resonance. You’ll need to adjust the
BASS along with this parameter to keep a balance.
[3] “TREBLE” 0.0...10.0 Adjusts the treble.
[1] “CLOSE” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the tone when the wah pedal is closed.
[2] “PEDAL” 0.0...10.0 Mimics the “sweep” of the wah pedal — from open to
closed.
[3] “OPEN” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the tone when the wah pedal is open.
[1] “SENS” 0.0...10.0 Adjusts the sensitivity of the effect.
[2] “ATTACK” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the Auto Wah’s response speed.
[3] “POLARITY” uP(UP), dn(DOWN) Sets the direction in which the auto wah
will operate.
