OPERATION & SUGGESTED SETTINGS

individually and allows more gentle gating compared to the full-band mode. This is achieved by letting certain frequency areas of the dry signal pass, even when the gate is active.

Dry Blend is excellent for reducing/removing significant noise without sounding un-natural. Noise Gate with Dry Blend activated works great when the gate is used in an amp’s effects loop or after hi-gain distortion pedals.

Note that “Min”, “Mid” and “Max” refers to Dry Blend and therefore “Min” mode provides the most attenuation, “Max” mode provides the least.

When the A/B switch is off (not lit), you can switch off channels A and B as if you were using two separate pedals. When the A/B switch is on (LED green), you can toggle between channels A and B simply by pressing the A or B switch. To completely bypass the pedal, press the switch of the currently active channel.

Noise Gate simple setup procedure:

Start out by setting all controls in 12 o’clock position

Turn up the guitars volume pot without playing

Now tweak the THRESHOLD knob until you find the exact point where the desired attenuation of the noise is achieved
