Speed (tempo synchronized wah)
Turning up the speed control in the top left corner activates the Auto
Wah, a Wah that automatically modulates at the speed you set. The
foot pedal now controls the center frequency of the Wah.
Setting the Auto Wah rate is a simple matter of moving the Speed
knob, the Wah speed is displayed in the yellow field in Hertz or “Wahs
per second”. The following table gives some examples of how long
one filter movement or Wah will take at different speed settings:
Of course you can synchronize the speed of the Wah to your host’s
tempo. Select a note resolution from the Speed/Sync drop-down menu
next to the speed knob. T stands for triplets, * for dotted.
Auto
When you set the Speed knob to maximum, the Wah pedal will be
controlled via envelope analysis (also called envelope follower). This
means that the filter cutoff frequency will be controlled by the input
(bass) signal. In this mode the Speed knob’s display will say “Auto”.
