Wah wah

Can anybody recommend a decent wah wah effect (pref free) 64 bit VST to replace the Sonitus Direct X wah wah plugin?
 
Thanks...

    Quad curve EQ. It's free!
     
    Drop the entire EQ, create one big curve, Q to taste, create an envelope and adjust away.
     
    You can do something similar for a phaser effect. two or 3 peaks and lock them. I forget how far to separate the peaks.
     
    Craig Anderton's book about recording for guitarist has all the info. The web as well, probably.

    Notation, the original DAW. Everything else is just rote. We are who we are and no more than another. Humans, you people are crazy.

    StudioCat > I use Windows 10 and Sonar Platinum. I have a touch screen.
    I make some videos. This one shows how to do a physical loopback on the RME UCX to get many more equalizer nodes.

    I did a trick with using two parallel EQs and throwing one out of phase to get a real wah-wah sound, which is different from just sweeping a parametric stage. If you're not familiar with this technique I'm sure it's on the web somewhere; I can find it and post. [edit: gswitz already posted it a couple posts previously.]

    The newly added BiFilter (X3 Producer) is pretty decent as well, if set to band pass.
