AUTO WAH
This models an auto-wah; a device that creates an
automatic “wah” effect that varies with your picking
dynamics (i.e., how hard or soft you hit the strings).
EDIT 1 “SENS”
Adjusts the sensitivity of the effect
in response to the volume of your
guitar.
EDIT 2 “ATTACK”
Adjusts the response speed of the
auto wah.
EDIT 3 “POLARITY”
Adjusts the direction in which the
effect operates.
COMP
Want to play a clean passage that needs to be nice,
smooth, and even? Need a bit more sustain on a
lead line? Then look no further; COMP is the effect
for you. It’s modeled on a compressor pedal that is
hugely popular due to the percussive clean sound it
can produce—making it perfect for ’80s and ’90s pop
and funk rhythm work. It can also add a singing,
mellow, sustain to lead lines - clean or dirty.
EDIT 1 “SENS”
Adjusts the sensitivity of the com-
pressor. Turning the knob toward the
right will increase the amount of
compression and sustain. If you turn
the knob all the way to the left, the
effect is OFF.
EDIT 2 “ATTACK”
Adjusts the strength of the attack.

bination effects, the ATTACK parameter is already set
to the optimal value.
