richbark67 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I just got a Hotone Soul Press II. Volume and WAH are amazing. I want to run it as WAH in ON position and Expression in off position. It seems to only work as an expression pedal if I am on a preset that utilizes an expression pedal AND i unplug it and re-plug it into EXP 1/2. Works great then, until I switch presets. Then I have to unplug and re-plug again. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richbark67 Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 Quick addendum: I started out using a TS cable and the EXP Sweep was 0 - 100 - 0, with 100 at about the half depressed point. I switched to a TRS and the sweep is now 0 - 100, as expected, with 100 in full depressed state. The Pedal is more consistently recognized with the TS cable than with the TRS cable. I will keep playing with it until I figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richbark67 Posted November 17, 2021 Author Share Posted November 17, 2021 it works! Has to play with the global settings. Sounds great. WAH/Volume/Expression all in one and it does not take up much space. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cordovader Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Thanks for the info, very useful since I was planning myself to buy the same pedal for my mini pedal board. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massive_al Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Hi, did you manage to get this to work as wah in the ON position and expression in OFF? I didn’t think it was possible but may have to pick one up if it works! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richbark67 Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 Yes, it works as WAH when "ON" and Expression when "OFF". As you may know, there are two WAH settings - classic and warm - both of which can be adjusted via the sweep knob. I have mine set on classic and I think it sounds pretty good. I am comparing it to a Dunlop CryBaby Mini. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massive_al Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 That’s awesome, thanks so much for replying. I guess you’d need 2 cables right? A standard jack cable from the output of the soul press to the input of helix, and a TS or TRS from the exp out of the soul press into exp1/2 on helix?

jjames0220 Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Hi, how did you solve the sweep 0 - 100 - 0 issue? Trying to use it as Wah and Expression using split Y - TRS to TS. What is your global settings for this? TIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sorted it using a simple TRS cable connected to the Hotone in the EXP Out and connected to my HX Stomp in the EXP 1/2 input. I don't think the Hotone Soul Press II works with a Y cable... But please correct me if I'm wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
