Where is the « wah » effect hiding ?

Hi everyone. New owner of a NW2, I was testing and triturating a sample of Clavinet which I liked when I wanted to add a wah effect. What was my (bad) surprise to find that this effect is not implemented! Is it hidden? Am I visually impaired? Thanks

Hi, well the Wah is basically a low pass filter, modulated by an envelop (Env Wha) or by velocity (Auto Wha) or manually (Pedal Wha) right?
Now your NW2 is a synth so just use its filter with the appropriate modulation/morph you want!

I'm just a musician, I don't have this level of technical knowledge! Maybe guitarists are more used to this?
Still on the Nord Stage; wa-wa and a-wa are well represented and silkscreened but not there.
If someone would like to communicate the concrete manipulation to me, that would be nice ...

The Nord Wave 2 does not have a built-in wah. As Max mentions, wah is just a filter (generally band pass, not low pass.) You just need to set the filter type and use the knobs to dial in the starting point, then use the pedal morph to do the rest.
Nord Wave is not a Nord Stage, so some things that are obvious on the Stage are either more difficult or impossible on the Wave. They are different products.
