Switch off power of all units to be connected before you connect the Auto Dynamic De-Esser.

The Auto Dynamic De-Esser is fitted with both XLR-connectors and TRS stereo jacks for balanced operation, though the jacks may be used with unbalanced connections simply by plugging in mono jack-plugs. The level difference that normally occurs when a balanced input or output is used unbalanced is automatically compensated for.

Should the need arise to use the XLR connectors in an unbalanced system, pin 3 of the XLRs should be grounded. Inserting a mono jack also unbalances the XLRs.

Both output stages operate in parallel, so it is possible to connect two diffe- rent destination units simultaneously, for example to record to two different media at the same time or split the output between a mixer and effects processor. However, only one type of input (jack or XLR) should be connected at a time – the Auto Dynamic De-Esser is not intended to be used as a mixer!

To ensure optimal signal quality, SPL has developed a new hybrid-compo- nent balanced input/output stage using all laser-trimmed resistors with a tolerance of 0.01%. This approach has resulted in an exceptionally high CCMR (common mode rejection): 100dB at 1kHz and 80dB at 10kHz. As a precaution, before connecting the Auto Dynamic De-Esser switch off power of the unit and of all units to be connected.
