13 Use the TREBLE control to set the

S-TIME

(Sustain Time) parameter,

or the length of time in which the

WAH FRQ

parameter will hold the

value set by the

S-LVL

parameter.

———————————————————————————————————————————————————

14 Use the PRESENCE control to set the

S-LVL

(Sustain Level) param-

eter, which defines the value that the

WAH FRQ

parameter will hold at

for the length of time defined by

S-TIME

.

———————————————————————————————————————————————————

15 Use the MASTER control to set the

R-TIME

(Release Time) param-

eter, which defines the length of time (in milliseconds) for the

WAH

FRQ

parameter to go from the

S-LVL

value back to its minimum value

after

S-TIME

has expired.

That's it! You now have a dynamic, automatic wah pedal effect which simulates pressing and

releasing a wah pedal with every picked note. This is far more effective than a conventional

automatic wah effect, which simply varies the wah frequency up and down based on time (without

recognizing what is actually played). In fact, for many applications using ADSR with the wah effect

can be even more accurate than using an actual wah pedal.

Figure 7-2 shows a graph similar to that shown in Figure 7-1, but with the parameter values

from this example included.
