Wah- too much gain question

I have tried various wahs but each time, in a clean sound, it has too much gain.  I put the way as the first effect in my chain.  Any advice on how to make the wah not so hot in a clean snapshot or preset. I just want a really clean wah where I can do some funky chops.

Yeah, that's one of my very few beefs with Helix; you have to reduce the volume level on all the wahs. And it is most noticeable on clean presets. I've owned Line 6 modelers from the beginning: AxSys 212, Vetta,  Pod HD500 and M13 and none of them had that problem, you just stomped on the wah and it behaved like a real world wah. It's not exactly a huge problem, but it is a bit of a hassle getting the level right.
