WHERE TO PUT YOUR WAH-WAH

Most guitar players put their Wah-Wah pedal before time based effects like reverb, flanger, chorus, vibrato etc. This assures that the

effects are added to the Wah-Wah sound. Even all kinds of distortion/overdrive effects 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 effect 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 effect 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).

(5)

The

Q

control allows to change the shape of the filter peak. High Q settings (turned to right position) produce a large,

selective filter peak with a high output level. Low Q settings (turned to left position) provide a lower output level with a

subtle, broad filter peak producing less vocal effect.

(6)

Turning the

FINE

control allows to extend the toe-down frequency of the sweep range up to 2.2 kHz.

(7)

Use this °" TS

IN

connector to plug in the instrument cable.

The °" TS

OUT

connector sends the effected signal to your amp.

(9)

The °" TS

OUT/BYPASS

connector can be used as second output or as bypass, hard wired to the input, to play out the

uneffected signal.

(10)

The

TIMER ADJ

control (accessable through a hole in the housing) is needed to adjust the time the effect remains active after

taking your foot from the pedal.
