Hi,

I have a hard time to figure out how to set EX pedal function like the normal wah pedal (depress pedal at toe to turn on wah and turn off wall when depress again)
I don't see any switch pad under Boss GT-5 express pedal
Instead of that I have set CTR pedal to turn on wah effect and then use the EX pedal, please help
(sorry for my broken English, hope you guys understand what I'm trying to describe)

Thanks

The GT-5 does not have an EXP pedal switch function like all the latter GT models have.
The best option is to use an Assign to have the EXP pedal toggle the WAH effect on/off at the Toe end of the pedal.
You will have to use the following assign settings for each patch you want EXP activated wah.

Assign 1
Assign = on
Target = WAH on/off
minimum = OFF
maximum = ON
Act Range LO = 125
Act Range HI = 127
Source = EXP PEDAL
Source Mode = Toggle

Be sure you use the GT-5 on a hard surface floor and recalibrate the internal Expression pedal

Use the following steps to calibrate the on-board Expression Pedal on the GT-5:

1. Power on while holing PEDAL ASSIGN and NAME.

2. Press PARAMETER right repeatedly to select "17. CALIBRATE EXP."

3. Move the EXP pedal fully to the heal-back position.

4. Press WRITE.

5. Move the EXP pedal fully to the toe-end position.

6. Press WRITE.

When finished, turn off the power and then back on again.
