FX - Wah-Wah

 

 

The Wah-Wah FX unit was modeled after classic wah pedals of the 1970's. It's a fun and versatile effect that doesn't sound like any of the other Omnisphere Filters. This FX unit works both as a sweeping wah-wah and also as an “auto-wah” envelope filter effect by using the controls on Page 2.
