Xotic Effects EP Booster
Available Now at Northeast Music Center!
Northeast Music Center is proud to offer the Xotic Effects
XW-1 Wah Pedal in White.
The Xotic Wah is modeled on the “Holy Grail” wah, the
1967-1968 Italian-built Clyde McCoy wahs. You do not get
one or three sounds in this pedal. You get unlimited
sounds, with unique controls that shape and contour your
tone the way you hear it. Its adjustability and flexibility
make it one of the most versatile wah pedals available
today.
EXTERNAL CONTROLS
Bias Control: A warmer bias gives slightly more output,
firmer bass, and a more pronounced wah through the sweep.
A cold bias, common on vintage wahs, gives a very clear,
transparent voice and smoother operation.
Wah Q Control: Adjusts the Q, or width of the filter peak.
This sets the amount of wah effect for precise filter
shaping and vocal-like tones.
Treble and Bass Controls: A two-band EQ with +/-15dB
center-detent pots to voice the pedal for different playing
styles and gear.
Adjustable Rubber Stopper: Shim the bumper on the back of
the treadle to change the pedal’s travel range.
Adjustable Pedal Torsion: Set the rocker feel with the hex
nut on the treadle.
LED Indicator: Lights when the pedal is on. It flashes when
battery power falls below 50%, so you know it is time for a
new battery.
INTERNAL CONTROLS
Input Gain: Turn clockwise for up to +6dB of wah boost.
Relay Bypass Switching: True bypass using a relay.
Internal DIP Switches: Set the wah resonance frequency range.
POWER
Runs on a 9V battery or a 9VDC center-negative supply with
a 2.1mm x 5.5mm DC jack. An external supply disconnects the
battery. Unplug the input cable when not in use to extend
battery life. Battery access is under the bottom plate
(4 screws).
