using a wah pedal with th3 works fine for me, i am using a behringer fcb 1010, to my knowledge it has always worked fine, and is the best implementation of all the amp sims i own due to the setting 'bypass wah at min position' love that bit . am able to select patches via the footswitches on the fcb 1010 and can't recall any problems with midi learn for what i do. this is with the full version of th3, do not have the latest platinum pre release installed, have manchester on my main pc and the march release on my drum room pc so can't check the cakewalk version of th3. sonar isn't my main daw but th3 works as above as a vst in the versions that i have installed and also works fine in my main daws and in standalone
