Wah Wah Effect

OK I didn't invent this. I read it somewhere and I applied it to a plugin, and it works great.

I print it as I go, so I'll explain it that way.

Make two Mono Aux ins and set both inputs to your guitar inputs.

Now on both tracks put a Trim plugin then a Focusrite 4 band.

Set one of the trim plugs to invert the phase. Now you should have no sound.

Take one of the EQ's and boost the mids about 10 to 12 dB. You may have to turn the input on the EQ down to compensate for the boost. Turn the input down on the other EQ also.

Now sweep the Freq and adjust the Q to taste.

Buss both auxs to the input of the track you want to record to.

Automate to taste. I use the procontrol so I use the fader while the guitar player plays.
