The WA-C1 features a 100% analog signal path, utilizing a modern Xvive MN3007 BBD chip to reproduce the iconic vintage chorus and vibrato effects. It delivers the lush, organic depth and modulation that defined the sound of late-70s and 80s music. The pedal’s ability to switch between chorus and vibrato modes lets you explore a range of modulation effects, from subtle wobble to rich, swirling textures.

Selectable Impedance for Tone Shaping

A standout feature of the WA-C1 is its selectable impedance setting, which gives you control over the input sensitivity. Engage the "Hi-Z" mode to push the pedal into a more transparent, higher-headroom zone, ideal for cutting through the mix with added clarity. This setting adds sparkle and definition to your sound, transforming the pedal from a vintage, darker tone to a more modern, bright sound with enhanced upper mids.

Premium Components and Analog Preamp

The WA-C1 uses premium components throughout, including Texas Instruments op-amps and discrete transistors, ensuring top-notch tonal performance. Its analog preamp adds bite and harmonic richness to your guitar or keyboard tones, even when the pedal is bypassed. This tonal character and the carefully designed circuit ensure the WA-C1 produces not just classic sounds, but sounds that are alive with natural warmth and definition.

Why We Love It

The WA-C1 blends vintage charm with modern-day control, offering a powerful range of modulation tones for both guitarists and keyboardists. Its analog heart and quality components make it the perfect tool for achieving the lush, classic chorus and vibrato sounds that made legends of bands like The Police and Queen.
