Rumor about Wahoo?

Post by wavesofsound »

I heard a rumor Sonuus will be doing a firmware update that would allow the Wahoo to act as a volume pedal as well. Any truth to this rumor?

Unfortunately, making the Wahoo a volume pedal is not possible in firmware.

However, you can get pretty close by configuring the Wahoo as a low-pass filter, with low resonance, with the cutoff frequency going from 10Hz to 4000Hz. The effect can be very like a volume control, though, of course, it affects the tone as the level drops.

We are working on a new volume pedal called "Voluum". We are hoping to have this available at the end of the year. We'll put more details on our web site before then, but there have already been some previews announced. It includes everything you would expect of a volume pedal, and an awful lot more. Fully-analogue, high-quality signal path, digital control:
