DigiTech Bass Synth Wah
A bass envelope filter pedal with seven selectable filter options, powered by 9V battery or optional PS200R supply
Overview
The DigiTech Bass Synth Wah is a bass envelope filter pedal made in China, part of the DigiTech X-Series. It has seven filter options, so it goes past plain wah sounds and into synth-like tones for bass. The controls are Sens, Control, and Range. They set the trigger threshold and the filter response. It runs on a 9V alkaline dry battery, or on the optional PS200R adapter.
