Using the Foot Controller for Pedal Wah Control

The connected Foot Controller can also be used to con-
tinuously change the sound of the Pedal Wah effect. To
do this, simply select the Pedal Wah type for the Modula-
tion 1 and/or Modulation 2 blocks, and make sure that the
effect is properly turned on. (For more information on
using Pedal Wah and the Foot Controller, see page 26.)

An optional FC7 Foot Controller can be connected to the GW33 for use as a volume pedal or as a
realtime controller for the Pedal Wah effect. When used as a volume pedal, it can be placed in
one of four positions in the effect chain, and be given a Minimum Volume setting (for when you
need to easily change between two different volume settings).
