Description

BOSS AW-3 - Versatile Auto‑Wah, Humanizer & Tempo Control

The BOSS AW 3 Dynamic Wah packs classic auto wah and dynamic wah sounds into a compact pedal chassis. Featuring dedicated inputs for guitar and bass, a unique Humanizer mode that emulates vowel like vocal sounds, tempo control, and optional expression pedal operation, the AW 3 delivers expressive tonal shaping for stage and studio.

Performance & Controls

With selectable sweep behaviours (Up, Down, Sharp), a manual centre frequency control, sensitivity adjustment and decay shaping, the AW 3 responds musically to your playing dynamics. Tempo mode allows synchronization to a set rate, while EXP mode hands control to an optional expression pedal for real time sweep manipulation.

Design & Use Cases

Housed in a sturdy metal enclosure, the AW 3 is road ready and compact for pedalboards. A dedicated Bass input provides tailored response for low end instruments. Whether you need rhythmic auto wah, funky envelope filtering, or vowel like humaniser effects, the AW 3 is an adaptable tool for guitarists and bassists—available now at Audio Direct.
