Behringer HELLBABE HB01 User Manual

HELLBABE HB01
Ultimate Wah-Wah Pedal with Optical Control
Thank you for showing your condence in us by purchasing the Behringer
HELLBABE HB01. This professional Wah-Wah pedal is specially designed
to provide everything you need for all-style classic and modern sounds.
Thanks to its high-performance features like exible Q control, freely
adjustable heel-down frequency range (perfect for use with bass guitars),
tunable boost function and much more you’re armed with a tool for serious
musicians yearning for the most up-to-date sounds to add new dimensions
to their creativity.
WHERE TO PUT YOUR WAH-WAH
Most guitar players put their Wah-Wah pedal before time based eects
like reverb, anger, chorus, vibrato etc. This assures that the eects are
added to the Wah-Wah sound. Even all kinds of distortion/overdrive
eects should be placed before this unit to achieve best tone results.
Controls
(1) This is the PEDAL of the HB01. The unit will be activated as soon
as you put your foot on and move it. By taking your foot from
the pedal the eect will be deactivated. Depending on the timer
adjustment (see (10)) the HB01 remains active for a few seconds
after that.
(2) The RANGE control lets you extend the heel-down frequency
to match the frequency range of bass guitars for example
(440 Hz to 250 Hz).
(3) The BOOST switch activates the boost function. The output level
is then increased - but only if the Wah eect is switched on.
(4) The BOOST control adjusts the level of output boost
(max. +15 dB). This control is only active if the BOOST switch
is set to ON (and if the Wah is switched on).
