There are 35 types, in seven groups, of wah effects
you can get by stepping on and releasing pedal 1,
with differing ranges of tone change and different
speeds, and along with one type of modulation
(vibrato), there are a total of 36 variations of wah
pedal effects.
<Selecting Wah (or Modulation) Type>
1. Select the patch whose effect type you want to
change, and press [EDIT/PLAY] to go into the
Edit mode.
2. Set the EDIT TARGET dial to FOOT PEDAL, and
the PARAMETER SELECT dial to “A” (WAH
TYPE).
3. When you press the [+] and [-] buttons, the display
changes. (Display shows UA1 to UA5, At1 to At5,
br1 to br5, nU1 to nU5, -U1 to -U5, -b1 to -b5, -n1
to -n5, or Mod. For more on the effects that you
can get with each setting, refer to ◆ below.)
4. When you have selected the type, switch the
PARAMETER SELECT dial to “WRITE PATCH?”,
and press the [+] and [-] buttons simultaneously to
write the patch.
➼
When saving to another patch number, before step 4,
turn the PARAMETER SELECT dial to “WRITE
TO...”, and use the [+] and [-] buttons to designate a
patch number as the destination.
➼
When making settings, play the guitar with pressing
pedal 1 to try the effect.
◆ Wah Pedal Variations that can be selected
in step 3
➼
The number (1 to 5) in the third place of the display
indicates speed of the tone change. When you step on
and release the pedal, the numbers show, with “1” indi-
cating the fastest tone change, and as these numbers get
larger, the speed decreases.

UA1 to UA5 (Wah 1 to 5)
This adds an effect that resembles a guitar wah
pedal to the synthesizer sound. With this unique
effect added to the sound, stepping on the pedal
gives the tone a brighter “wah” sound, and when
the pedal is released, the sound becomes darker,
with an “oww” sound. By repeatedly stepping on
and releasing the pedal, you can get an effect that
sounds like “wah wah wah.”
At1 to At5 (Auto Trigger 1 to 5)
This is basically the same effect as the wah pedal
(UA1 to UA5), but rather than being applied with
the pedal, with this novel method, the effect is
automatically applied each time the guitar is
picked. In this situation, the pedal still works to
add affect, so you can use both of these options
together. When combined with the Play Feel set-
ting “EF2” on tones like Synth Bass, you can get a
smooth “touch wah” effect (p. 38).
br1 to br5 (Brightness 1 to 5)
This controls only the brightness of the sound,
without adding the characteristic sound of the
wah itself. In all other actions, it is absolutely
identical to UA1 to 5.

FOOT PEDAL
By switching into Pedal Effect mode, or while in the
Play mode setting the PARAMETER SELECT dial to
PATCH INC/DEC BY S1/S2, you can add effects like
hold, pitch bend, wah pedal, and the like to the synth
sounds by pressing the base module pedals.
There are numerous variations in the way these
effects work, so you can freely choose the ones that
suit your own purpose, taste, or otherwise to match
the song you are playing
