Wah/Volume
Designed for expressive live performance and uncompromising tonal integrity, the ATWAS combines Morley’s iconic optical Wah with ultra-smooth optical Volume control and an onboard Wah Boost—delivering a versatile, stage-ready tool built for modern players who demand feel, reliability, and tone in equal measure.
Inspired by Lifeson’s decades-long relationship with Wah and Volume pedals as tools of musical expression, the ATWAS is engineered to respond naturally to playing dynamics while preserving the player’s core tone. From subtle swells to commanding lead lines that cut through the mix, the ATWAS is built failsafe for real-world stages, studios, and sessions.
“All the world’s a stage, and how you control dynamics on that stage matters,” explains Lifeson. “Wah and volume pedals have always been essential tools for me, not just effects. With the ATWAS, we focused on creating something that feels completely natural underfoot, preserves your tone, and gives you control without distraction.”
At the heart of the ATWAS is Morley’s proven optical circuitry, eliminating the wear and tear associated with traditional potentiometers. A dedicated Wah / Volume mode switch allows players to select their preferred operation, while the Wah Boost control offers up to 20dB of additional gain—perfect for pushing solos forward without altering the fundamental character of the sound.
“The collaboration with Alex is always about purpose,” said Scott Fietsam of Morley. “The ATWAS isn’t about adding gimmicks—it’s about refining essential tools. Optical Wah, Optical Volume, premium buffering, and rock-solid construction. This pedal is designed to work night after night, exactly the way a professional needs it to.”
Housed in a cold-rolled steel enclosure with a chrome finish and Tel-Ray-style detailing, the ATWAS also features a glow-in-the-dark treadle grip for confident footing on dark stages. Like all Lerxst pedals, it is proudly made in the USA.
