Your Wahoo is now ready to play. Select different presets and experiment with the wide variety of

sounds that are possible.

For pedal effects (F00–F19), as you play move the footpedal in time to the music to create the wah

sound. For envelope (touch) effects (F20–F39) the wah effect is controlled by how hard to play. For

LFO

(auto) effects (F40–F59) the filters will move on their own, but the footpedal can be used to

control their tempo between preset limits. See “Factory presets” on page 35 for a summary of the

factory presets.

While you are playing, you may accidentally bump a switch or button which will take you into Preset

Edit mode. To prevent this, and stay in Preset Select mode, you can slide the

LOCK

switch to the

locked position. Alternatively, just re-enter Preset Select mode as described above.

LOCK

switch

On the back panel of the Wahoo there is a slide switch labelled

LOCK

. When this switch is in the

locked position, the Wahoo is in Preset Select mode and none of the parameters can be edited or

saved: the only thing that you can do is change between presets. If you try to make a change when

locked, LoC is shown briefly on the numeric display.

LOCK

mode is ideal for gigging, when you want to switch from one preset to another but be sure that

you won’t accidentally make changes to your set-up. When the

LOCK

switch is in the unlocked

position, you can tweak the Wahoo settings and save new presets.

Top Tip: When the Wahoo is locked, you can quickly move between presets using the

LEVEL

knob.

Top Tip: When the Wahoo is locked, the

FILTER

and

MODE

LED

s will light dimly to indicate

the configuration of the preset. For example, if both filters are active,

FILTER

and 2

LED

s will be lit. Similarly, if the effect is pedal-controlled, the pedal

LED

will

be lit.
