[1] “<strong>SE</strong>NS” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the sensitivity of the compressor (i.e. when its<br />

“smoothing” effect kicks in). The amount of compression/<br />

sustain will increase the more you turn this control up.<br />

[2] “LEVEL” 0.0...10.0 Adjusts the output level.<br />

[3] “ATTACK” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the strength of the attack.<br />

2. ACOUSTIC<br />

Wanna go “unplugged” without the hassle of switching guitars and amps? Enter the<br />

acoustic guitar simulator - a clever effect that magically converts an electric guitar’s<br />

sound into that of an acoustic. It works best with a single coil (read: low output)<br />

pickup in the neck position, especially when paired with the BLACK 2x12 amp model.<br />

[1] “BODY” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the body resonance. You’ll need to adjust the<br />

BASS along with this parameter to keep a balance.<br />

[2] “BASS” 0.0...10.0 Adjusts the bass.<br />

[3] “TREBLE” 0.0...10.0 Adjusts the treble.<br />

3. VOX WAH<br />

This effect is modeled on two legendary VOX wah pedals; the V847 and the V848<br />

Clyde McCoy model. Thanks to their unique “throaty” tone, these are the only wah<br />

pedals many professionals will consider stepping on. When used wisely, this pedal<br />

can either make your guitar cry like a baby or howl like a man possessed!<br />

[2] “CLO<strong>SE</strong>” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the tone when the wah pedal is closed.<br />

[3] “OPEN” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the tone when the wah pedal is open.<br />

[4] “MANUAL” 1.0...10.0 * Adjusts the openness (position) of the wah.<br />

[5] “TYPE” 847, 848 Selects either V847 or V848 Clyde McCoy model as the<br />

wah type<br />

[6] “ORDER” PrE(PRE), Selects the connection order. PRE/POST connects the<br />

PoS(POST) wah before/after the Amp Model.<br />

U<strong>SE</strong>FUL TONE HINT: A great tonal trick that’s employed by many guitarists,<br />

including some who are household names, is to find a “sweet spot” within the range<br />

of their Wah pedal and then leave it there. This is often called stuck-Wah (imagine<br />

that!) and, when used tastefully, can be very effective as it produces a very distinctive<br />

sound that will cut through any mix. You can dial in a stuck-Wah “sweet spot”<br />

with your TONE control in a heartbeat. Try it, it’s cool...<br />

4. AUTO WAH<br />

The lazy man’s Wah pedal! Only kidding...this quirky but useful effect allows you to<br />

create an automatic “Wah” effect that varies with your picking dynamics (i.e. how<br />

hard or soft you hit the strings). As in VOX WAH, you can select either V847 or<br />

V848 as the wah type.<br />

[1] “<strong>SE</strong>N<strong>SE</strong>” 0.0...10.0 * Adjusts the sensitivity with which the wah<br />

responds to the volume of the guitar.<br />

[2] “POLARITY” uP(UP), Sets the direction in which the auto wah will operate.<br />
