Digitech Bass Synth Wah Settings....

Sign in to disble this ad
My group plays "99 Red Balloons" by nena and I wanted something to give that bass synth sound like at the beginning of the song.
I picked up a digitech bass synth wah pedal and have been messing around with settings, starting with the ones out of the book .

I'm finding some pretty cool sounds, but just not that synth sound like on that song.

Does anyone have any setting suggestions for this pedal?

Or even some interesting settings to try (octasub thing just isn't doing it for me.....)

IMO mode "4" - with the knobs at about 12 o'clock - resembles that sound better than the other settings... at least w/ my fender p...

Horak: Hrm, I didn't even think to switch basses and see if the passive bass might work better for that . I will try that setting tomorrow (kinda late tonight to make noise), thanks for the quick reply!!!!
