about the wah mods comparing to the real ones

Hi , i just wanted to ask a simple question about the wah moddels. I never had a real wah, so in the toe possition, is it normal that you have such a sharpness? Is it the same amount with the real ones? Allthough i like the wah models.

    Yeah, I'd say that's pretty much normal.  Some are sharper than others.  You just have to find which one suits you best.  It also makes a difference where you put the wah in your signal chain.  If you put after distortion or overdrive, it tends to makes them harsher overall.

    If you find a wah too sharp in toe position, then adjust the sweep parameter so your expression pedal never goes to 100% full toe when depressed.

    It's very useful! Also, setting an eq after the wah can help.

    I would prefer if Line 6 gave us users an adjustable Q control and eq for all the wah's.

    Then we could customize our wahs and improve them. That's easy to fix and it would make the wah's much better.

    Line 6 already implement added features to some modeled fx not found on the originals, why not the wah's?
