Tone Controls; Graphic Eq; Wah Filter - Ada MP-2 Owner's Manual

Tone Controls

The Tone controls give fast access to tonal shaping. Use the Tone controls to get a basic
tonal sound and the Graphic EQ for more specific shaping needs. The actual frequencies
affected by the Tone controls sometimes change with different tube Voicings to give the
best sound.
NOTE: Simultaneously pressing the "∧ " and "v " buttons resets the Tone Controls to
flat response (all bands to 0 dB).
Lo (+12/-12):
Mid (+12/-12):
Hi (+12/-12):
Presence (+12/-12):

Graphic EQ

Graphic EQ provides fine tonal shaping by allowing adjustment of nine specific frequencies.
Up to 12 dB of boost or cut can be applied in two dB steps at any of the frequencies. The
display gives a graphic indication of the frequency currently selected and the complete EQ
curve. The upper right corner of the display always shows the frequency currently being
edited, with the amount of boost or cut at that frequency shown directly below it.
NOTE: Simultaneously pressing the "∧" and "v" buttons resets the Graphic EQ to flat
response (all bands to 0 dB).
The frequencies are:
100 Hz
1.3kHz

Wah Filter

The Wah Filter follows the Compressor and precedes the tube stages. It can be swept by
using a MIDI controller, with a sweep triggered by playing dynamics, or with an onboard
sweep oscillator (LFO).
Status (In/Out):
Mode (Pedal):
Wah Pedal (0/100):
(Triggered):
Shapes the amount of low (bass) frequencies in the signal in 2
dB steps.
Shapes the amount of midrange frequencies in the signal in 2
dB steps.
Shapes the amount of hi (treble) frequencies in the signal in 2
dB steps.
Shapes the amount of presence (upper mid) range frequencies
in the signal in 2 dB steps.

Switches Wah Filter in and out of the signal path.
Enables Wah Filter to be swept by a MIDI controller. A MIDI
controller must be assigned in the Real-Time MIDI section to
control Wah Pedal in order for this function to work. For more
information see the description of Real-Time MIDI below.
Found on screen 2 when Pedal Mode is selected. Sets the
frequency in the filter at which the pedal's sweep begins.
Causes Wah Filter to be activated according to input signal
