Electro Harmonix Crying Tone
The Electro Harmonix Crying Tone is a wah pedal that uses an optical sensor instead of a traditional potentiometer-based treadle. Rocking the pedal changes the sweep of a band-pass filter, which emphasizes different frequency ranges of the incoming guitar signal. The filter's center frequency moves from a lower, darker position when the pedal is heel-down to a brighter, higher position when toe-down, creating the classic "wah" effect. The pedal's optical mechanism is designed to provide a smooth, wear-free sweep, as there is no physical contact between the moving parts. It features a standard input and output jack for mono operation, and it is powered by a 9-volt battery or an optional AC adapter. The Crying Tone's filter response is fixed, with no additional controls for adjusting the sweep range or Q factor, making it a straightforward, single-function wah pedal.
