Wah standard form (cry baby, vox ..) with a boost control and two Fasel that changes the frequency curve of the wah.
Powered by battery or adapter (9v).
4 LEDs: one for activating the effect, both for the choice of Fasel (red or yellow) and for activation of the boost.

The only minor drawback is that the settings of Q Fasel and the gain of the pedal are internal (via tri pot). Anyway once we settled into talking more.

UTILIZATION

No need to book. It engages the effect through pressure on the pedal (like the vast majority of wah), we chose Fasel and presto, here we go. The choice of Fasel is by the switch of law and that of the boost by the left. The boost is adjustable via the volume pot on the right.

SOUND QUALITY

Fasel both provide very good versatility.
The yellow Fasel is typed cry baby, but with adjusting the Q 1 / 3, we get a nice wah, very musical, not at all showy in the highs and no draft in the bass.

Fasel the red when it is darker in offering a deeper wah. With a relatively short delay, we get almost the same sound as the solo John Frusciante Unreachable.

The boost is a real plus on the solos.

It also behaves well in clean when saturated. A delight.

Note that there is no increase in volume when switching effect (boost off), which is a very good point.


OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week. It replaces my ibanez WH10 v2 (switch death). I blamed the latter has difficulty activating effect and the increase in volume when switching. The EAC meets my needs perfectly. It is not about to leave my pedalboard.
