Rate Knob
Species the parameter that is
controlled by the MODULATION FX
[RATE] knob.
Filter Type LPF, BPF
Type of lter
LPF: The wah eect will be applied
over a wide frequency range.
BPF: The wah eect will be applied
over a narrow frequency range.
Manual # 0–127
Adjusts the basic frequency at which
the eect is applied.
Peak 0–127
Adjusts the amount of the wah eect
that will occur in the range of the basic
frequency.
Set a higher value for Q to narrow the
range to be aected.
Sens # 0–127
Adjusts the sensitivity with which the
lter is controlled.
Polarity UP, DOWN
Sets the direction in which the
frequency will change when the
auto-wah lter is modulated.
UP: The lter will change toward a
higher frequency.
DOWN: The lter will change toward a
lower frequency.
Rate (sync sw) # OFF, ON
If this is ON, the modulation is
synchronized to the tempo of the
rhythm (owner’s manual p. 24).

note (p. 31)
Depth # 0–127 Depth of modulation
Phase # 0–180 [deg]
Adjusts the degree of phase shift of
the left and right sounds when the
wah eect is applied.
Low Gain -15–+15 [dB] Gain of the low range
High Gain -15–+15 [dB] Gain of the high range
