Darkglass Ultimate - First Look at the Auto-wah

Pedal: Auto-wah

If the new Fuzz pedal in the Darkglass Ultimate plugin is the odd man out, the Auto-wah is a pedal searching for a use. It's a fun pedal and has a good range of sounds, but I'm having trouble finding why a bass player would need one. Don't get me wrong. I'm glad it's there and available, but...I don't know. Outside of sitting in a soloing FX chain, where I think it has the greatest impact (video soon), I'm not sure of its utility.

For now, here's a brief demo. In this example, I play a line with it on the whole time and then toggle between the auto-wah on and off. Be interesting to hear how it sounds with some guitars in the mix. Anyway, let's make some bass!

More to come...
