Hi everyone,
i've spent the whole morning "profiling" my trusty 535Q was pedal and thought I'share the settings just in case anyone is interested. Not sure if this is the right section to post this either, so feel free to move it if necessary...
As some of you know, the 535Q is a nice pedal in that it includes a few extra features such as a Range and a Q selector, as well as a programmable boost.
I have A/B'd the following settings:
- Range Position 1, Q halfway: Manual 3.6 - Peak 6.9 - Pedal Range +24% - Peak Range -22%
- Range Position 3, Q halfway: Manual 3.2 - Peak 6.9 - Pedal Range +30% - Peak Range -21%
- Range Position 5, Q halfway: Manual 2.7 - Peak 7.4 - Pedal Range +26% - Peak Range -23%
I've tried them with both clean and distorted sounds and I'd say the accuracy goes from 90 to 99% accurate, which I guess is pretty good. Keep in mind I am using a Moog EP3, so depending on your pedal you might have to adjust things (though you probably won't need to).
I hope you find this useful. I've read many posts about the confusing parameters of the wah section, but with a bit of experimenting it does reveal itself to be quite a remarkable tool!
Time permitting, I will do more of this (either fine tuning these presets or doing other wah pedals...).
Best,
Andre
