It was faster to come up with a base preset. Q-Wah was the 1st algorithm to come to mind, with the BassWAH TYPE providing an extended range. It held up pretty well against your YouTube link. That is, from a quick run on a Steinberger bridge pickup, a touch of clean boost in front, but no compression. Clean Vox amps.
SENSITIVITY is where you start: match your playing style & picking strength. Give it a good range of picking dynamics to chew on. OUT LEVEL, if you need to gain-stage here. Check the Input & Output Level Meters.
Q-INTENSITY (effect mix / depth), DEPTH, SENSITIVITY, and BOTTOM are going to be interactive. Don’t worry about the ‘bottom row’ for now [TEMPO, DEPTH MOD, SPEED MOD, MOD SENS MOD SOURCE].
- Set your base SENSITIVITY level. Small tweaks on everything else
- Too harsh on the high end? Bring down Q-INTENSITY or DEPTH; bring up the BOTTOM.
- Not enough effect? Bring up the DEPTH, Q-INTENSITY.
- Don’t max any interactive control out; up or down. 25 to 75 range; small increments.
Plenty of other options (algorithms) to choose from, but let’s start here.
