BJF design guitar and bass Auto Wah/ Voltage Control Filter pedal
Hand-made in Finland premium quality auto wah pedal.
The SNOW WHITE AUTOWAH (SWAW) circuit is based on a 1991 BJF rack
mount remote wah circuit and is tuned like a real wah.
The circuit was redesigned with envelope controls and built into
small size pedal.
It has very fast tracking and accuracy rarely found on auto wahs/
envelope filters. With the four knobs you can have total control
of the effect.
SWAW works both with guitar and bass and you can fine-tune the
pedal to suit your instru-ment, your playing style and your taste
of tone.
The pedal has a unique decay control for the filter frequency fall
speed. You can set it to be fast for wah effects on every note,
or slower for a more traditional auto wah sound.
Like all Mad Professor pedals SWAW is hand made in Finland using
only premium compo-nents, to give years of trouble free operation
with superb musical tone.
Controls
SENSITIVITY: Sets the filter trigger level, tune
this carefully to fit your guitar/bass output and your playing touch.
You can further change the sensitivity from your guitar volume knob
while playing.
BIAS: Controls the filter resonance frequency.
When Sensitivity is turned fully off the Bias can be used as a sweepable
filter.
RESONANCE: Controls the sharpness or Q-factor
of the filter.
DECAY: Controls how fast the filter frequency falls
back to resting point (that is set with the Bias control). This
can be set fast (CW) so you get the wah effect on every note or
slow for a more traditional auto wah sound.
PLAYING: Please take time to get used to the controls and
as this is a voltage control filter it will react to your playing
touch. The envelope control circuit is carefully designed to follow
the dynamics of guitar/bass and it might take some time to master
the Auto Wah playing technics.
Try also adjusting guitar volume between 8 and 10 to further expand
use.
