Hi everyone,
Does anyone know if it is possible to obtain a Wah Wah guitar sound for the Korg Triton Extreme?
And how would I go about obtaining this sound?
Many thanks.

There are 3 controller jacks on the back of the triton marked "switch" "pedal" and "damper".
"Damper" is the jack for a piano-type sustain pedal. It is a dedicated function that AFAIK is active on every program except drums. Be aware, the preferred damper is a T/S only (one black line on jack) and NOT one that supports "half damping" function (T/R/S: two black lines).
"Switch" is an assignable foot-switch. The assignment will depend on how, and if, it is set up. It can be set with a global function (all programs) or as a specified controller within a program (AMS: alternate modulation source).
Damper and switch pedals are also called momentary foot switches and are available from a number for makers for as little as $10-$15 US for clam-shell type to as much as $50-$60 for piano styled pedals. They all function the same and the guts are just an on/off switch. I'm partial to the Roland FS-series which has a sturdy metal case and a short lever covered switch -- this series has a number of options with regard to polarity (open/closed) and function (momentary/latched). [a Korg switch may have been stock with Extreme, but if you it wasn't included just replace it.]
"Pedal" refers to a wah-type or volume-type floor pedal. Generally, these pedals have output only - they are not in-line effect pedals like a guitar wah - no input required. Specifications for pedals vary, you are best served by looking for a Korg pedal. Not included. But also not generally required for playing -- I almost never use one [35 years w/o].
The options for what you want all of these pedals to do are in the Global menu under Controller Preferences; you will need to open the Global menu to see this - it is not on the "front page".
