with Wah-Wah modulation and you’ll understand. Basically, the Wah-Wah modulation is a lowpass
type of filter that can be swept across the frequency range. During the sweep, the filter’s characteris-
tics also changes. The Wah effect is mono in/out.
For the Wah-Wah1 modulation you control the “pedal position” with the
R
ATE
/T
EMPO
knob and the
wet/dry mix with the
A
MOUNT
knob.
If you use an expression pedal connected to the C
ONTROL
P
EDAL
I
NPUT
you can control the filter
sweep and thus the Wah-Wah effect from the pedal by using the Morph function - see
page 60
.

)
Auto-Wah 1-2 are variations of the Wah-Wah effect described above. For
A-Wha
you control the
filter sweep range from the signal’s amplitude envelope (envelope follower). For the Auto-Wah 1
modulation you control the range with the
R
ATE
/T
EMPO
knob and the wet/dry mix with the
A
MOUNT
knob.
A-Wha 2
works in the same way, but produces a different character.

FFECT
2
The Effect 2 section offers six types of vintage style effects to add that extra flavour to
your sounds.
F
LANGER
1&2
The flanger produces a very characteristic comb filter effect. You set the flanging rate
with the
R
ATE
/T
EMPO
knob and the amount with the
A
MOUNT
knob. The Flanger ef-
fect is mono in/out.
P
HASER
1&2
The phaser effect produces a very characteristic “sweep” effect commonly used with
electric piano sounds. You control the rate of the phase shift with the
R
ATE
/T
EMPO
knob and the phase shift amount with the
A
MOUNT
knob. This effect is mono in/out.
C
HORUS
1&2
The Chorus effect simulates having several slightly detuned signals. You set the rate for the chorus
effect with the
R
ATE
/T
EMPO
knob and the amount with the
A
MOUNT
knob. This effect is stereo in/
out.
D
ELAY
The Delay effect produces echo/repeat effects. You set the Delay time with the
R
ATE
/
T
EMPO
knob (745-0.1ms). While you turn the knob, the delay time and corresponding
tempo and rhythmic subdivision will be shown briefly in the
D
ISPLAY
. The
A
MOUNT
knob adjusts the balance between the dry signal and the delay repeats.
If you adjust the Rate/Tempo knob, the delay may or may not change the pitch of the
current repeats. This is a user selectable option, and is set in the Sound menu - see
page
68
.
The
F
EEDBACK
knob controls the number of delay repeats. Delay is stereo in/out.
