EP1-KP reversing wah-how?

ceemusic · Feb 8th 2019

Set up the pedal fine, Mission EP1-KP, TRS to 1, TS to 2.

The Wah the filters are backwards, how can I reverse them to operate like a normal wah- highs foot down, lows up-?

Also I notice then sometimes adjusting Pedal2 settings the volume gets totally cut off, even when I set them both to off. I have to turn off/ on the Kemper to get sound again.

Any suggestions, steps I'm doing wrong?

thanks

Itsounds like you have the pedal range set to a negative value which reverses the direction.

Great, makes sense. I don't remember editing that but I'll check it out.

Also do you know if it's possible or how to stop the preset name being displayed when backing off the vol. pedal when I'm in Tuner mode?

I’m not sure exactly what you are referring to with the tuner issue i’m afraid.

Thanks Alan, I mean that when you back off the volume pedal all the way the tuner comes on, down it displays the preset. It's fine in browser mode but I don't want it changing in tuner mode. I just want to see the tuner in Tuner mode.

Also I should've asked how to set the pedal range. I tried finding a page to change it but didn't find any.

I don't use Tuner@Volume 0 but I've just tried it and I only see the tuner on my remote and KPA when I pull the volume back. I've tried changing settings but nothing I do shows the Preset name while the tuner is on. Are you saying that you never want to see the preset name even when the tuner is not engaged and muting the signal?

You set the pedal range inthe Wah Stomp itself page 1 of the settings. Third knob from the lef = Pedal Range. It sounds like yours is turned to a - value. My default wah preset has it a +25.

Thanks Alan, I found it & it was set a neg. value. My first time using the wah so don't why but anyway..

I appreciate the help.

In browser mode with the vol. pedal is up/ off. & the tuner comes on is fine.

I was hoping that in Tuner mode the vol. pedal wouldn't have any effect; the tuner would always be on regardless if the pedal is up off-/ down on. Not a biggie but would prefer the option.

You can remove the mute from the tuner mode so that would probably do what you want. Turn the chicken head knob to Tuner then untick the first soft button "Mute Signal". You can now play as normal with the tuner showing. However, it will revert back to the Rig Name screen when you select a new rig.

However, you don't really need to do this as the 3 LEDs below the Tuner pedal are always active and serve as a pretty good indicator if anything is out.

Thanks Alan, I'll check it out.

The mute signal didn't do what I was looking for but that's fine.

One more question; anytime I add a wah the range is always at -40% even after resetting to factory default. Can I set the module itself so it defaults to +25%?

I noticed that too at first.

I would download the Wah Prsets and use them as a starting point. DonPetersen has crested a list of presets recreating just about every famous wah pedal ever made. They are much better than the factory content Wah presets. There is a thread in the forum with a link to them.

Thatks strange. Unless I misinterpreted what you are wanting it worked on mine.

Thanks for the info, I'll look for that list.

I did use the lock feature to keep he range at the same value while switching different rigs.
