Is this a thing? Anyone make one?

Post by jreeves47 »

Anyone make a true bypass looper in a wah enclosure, with the wah being modded to function as an expression pedal?
Apologies if I have explained this poorly. English is my first language

you mean an expression pedal that adds only a certain amount of the singal from the true bypass loop? An expression pedal that blends the wet/dry signal from the loop?

I was looking for something similar a while ago. Wounded Paw might make what you are talking about. Take a look at this:

Basically 2 different things in a wah enclosure. The switch opens a true bypass loop. The wah works as a separate expression control. Not as a mixer

not following...

So you want to be able to use this as a true bypass loop and an expression pedal, but neither are actually working together or connected?
Is this to save space on your board?

Also saves a little footwork when playing live. You could engage a pedal and use expression simultaneously. Pretty rad idea.

Yeah that's a fucking awesome idea, having to move my foot around a lot always pisses me off when using expression controllable pedals. Don't know anyone that makes one, sorry. Shouldn't be hard to do though, so I'm sure someone nice here could do it.
