The joke someone made in there about a USB wah pedal controlling a virtual wah-wah plugin in software, reminded me.

Umm... I need to do exactly that. But how? I got the pedal part squared away: expression pedal -> MIDI CC.

What LADSPA plugin cocktail, or synth patch, should I use to get a passable wah? I've tried just a lowpass filter and it's not quite right. I think wah pedals may have some other stuff going on; bummer I don't actually have one handy to feed through a spectrum analyzer to figure out what exactly it's doing.

Trying to get that Herbie Hancock "Headhunters" clavinet-through-the-wah-pedal funkiness going over here.
