A Look at the Chrome Tone Wah Configuration
The Chrome Tone Wah is a full featured modulated lter, congured as a Wah in default mode, and as a variety of
other lters as per the 14 selectable types available. The Wah, like the Tremolo and Chorus congurations, has a
Dynamics and Auto section for triggering modulation of the Wah lter (or Tremolo gain, or Chorus delay length).
The Dynamic section acts as an envelope follower with adjustable attack and decay times. A threshold determines
the triggering level of the envelope follower. The amount of effect the envelope follower has on the Wah (or other
selected lter) is determined by the Depth control. The amount of affect the envelope follower has on the Auto
section’s LFO Rate, Shape, or Depth is determined by the Mod control. Inputs to the Dynamic section are not limited
to audio - side chain audio, MIDI note or velocity, and any of the 128 MIDI controllers can be used as the modulation
source.
The Auto section is a congurable LFO (low frequency oscillator) used to modulate the Wah (or other selected lter)
with a periodic waveform. There are two waveform shapes that can be mixed in realtime, and the second shape can be
a multiple of the rst. MIDI beat clock syncing is available along with a groove control.
