manual abstract
Before using this unit, carefully read the sections entitled: “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (separate sheet). These sections provide important information concerning the proper operation of the unit. Additionally, in order to feel assured that you have gained a good grasp of every feature provided by your new unit, this manual should be read in its entirety. The manual should be saved and kept on hand as a convenient reference. Main Features . The world’s first modeling wah pedal, utilizing COSM technology to create a wide variety of wah sounds Eight different sounds include an original BOSS “ADVANCED” tone and the sound of “vintage wah” pedals that are now so hard to obtain, “DOUBLE RESONANCE,” which creates an analog synth-like sound, “UNI-V,” with a filter effect for that 70’s sound, and even a new “VOICE” effect that produces “talking” modulation sounds and realistic human voice sounds. Also included is a CUSTOMIZE function that lets you create your own original wah sounds. . The infrared sensor “contactless pedal position detection” system both eliminates forever the scratchy noise that has previously been a problem when changing the volume, while also providing a previously unavailable smooth pedal action. . Features a “WAH RANGE” function that allows you to freely adjust the wah effect range. . Also has a DRIVE function that actively supports distortion, an effect that complements the wah pedal. Allows you to use eight different “distortion” effects such as “METAL ZONE,” “FUZZ,” and BOOSTER.” . The MEMORY function lets you take the changes you have made to the effect type, DRIVE, and other settings, and store them as custom wah effects. You can store up to three of such custom settings. You can also use the pedal to call up UNI-V and DRIVE distortion instantly. . A high-performance “noise suppressor” eliminates the wah pedal’s characteristic filter noise.

The life of these batteries may be limited, however, since their primary purpose was to enable testing. • When turning the unit upside-down, get a bunch of newspapers or magazines, and place them under the four corners or at both ends to prevent damage to controls. Also, you should try to orient the unit so no controls get damaged. • Make sure the “+” and “-” ends of the batteries are oriented correctly. • Do not mix fresh batteries with used ones, or mix batteries of different types. Doing so can result in fluid leakage. Installing Batteries * When turning the unit upside-down, handle with care to avoid dropping it, or allowing it to fall or tip over. * When the batteries run down, the ON/OFF indicator gets dim. If this happens, replace with new batteries. * When replacing the batteries, use six R6/LR6 (AA) type. * Battery life can vary depending on battery type. * Firmly close the battery cover—you should hear it click into place. Continuous usage time under battery power is about 38 hours with alkaline batteries and about 14 hours with carbon batteries. (This may vary according to usage conditions.)
