Description
BOSS AW-3
5 Sound Modes (UP / DOWN / SHARP / HUMANIZER / TEMPO) — Cover everything from classic funk filter sweeps and dark synth textures to a unique talking-vowel voice effect and tempo-synced modulation
Humanizer Mode — Blends two selectable vowel sounds (a, e, i, o, u) to recreate a convincing human talking-voice effect, fully controllable via picking dynamics
Dedicated Bass Input — Separate input circuitry optimized for bass frequencies, preserving low-end punch without tone loss
Expression Pedal Support — Connect a Roland EV-5 or compatible pedal via the EXP/CTL jack to use the AW-3 as a traditional manual foot-wah
Tap Tempo — Hold the footswitch for two seconds and tap your desired rhythm to set a fixed auto-sweep speed in TEMPO mode
Cocked-Wah Trick — Turn SENS fully counterclockwise to disable the auto-sweep, then use the MANUAL knob to lock in a static mid-focused tone — perfect for cutting guitar solos
Buffered Bypass — Maintains signal strength across long cable runs, ideal for large pedalboard setups
