I want to build a stompbox like the Crybaby Q control: Use a pot to select a certain part of the wahs range. I am looking for some Schems to do this. I would also like to add a footpedal to it that switches on when I use it and off when I dont, So I can return to the exact sound I want instead of trying to find the sweet spot on the wah pedal. I havent seen any projects similar around.


Any Wah Schems and ideas on how I can do this?

I am thinking just get a good wah circuit stick it in a box. It is the footswitchable pedal I am having trouble with.

Thanks :)

Excellent! I am going to breadboard the Q-zone. I assumed it would have an inductor in it, dont know why, this makes it even easier to build just a quad and a dual opamp! Has the schem been verified yet?




Added to my ever growing to do list! :cool:

Thanks Khe.  :D

I was thinking of using a footpedal to actually control the Q control. I suppose I could just use a wah and use your method littlegreiger, Thanks.  :D
