Once the DNS 4 is powered up, you can press the Power/lock button a second time to
lock the panel. When it’s locked, the Power/lock and Setup buttons continue to operate,
but all the other controls are disabled. Hold down the Power/lock button for around
three seconds to unlock the panel.
When the panel is unlocked, you can switch the DNS 4 off by pressing and holding the
Power/lock button for around three seconds. The current settings will be stored during
shutdown and will be recalled when the unit is turned on again. If the unit is not shut
down correctly, the settings may not be stored.
The DNS 4’s current settings are also stored a few seconds after you stop adjusting the
controls.
Should something cause the unit to freeze, you can switch it off by a holding the
Power/lock button for approximately six seconds.
■
Setup
The Setup button cycles through additional pages to access the setup parameters. It’s
illuminated when the unit is displaying pages other than the Process page.
■
Bypass
The Bypass button acts as a global process on/off control. When active, it’s illuminated
and the noise reduction process is disabled on all four channels. The input gain and high-
pass filter (see Channel setup) are unaffected by the bypass state.
It offers two actions:
Short press
Toggles between bypass on and off
Long press
When bypass is off, pressing and holding the button acts as a preview, switching bypass
on for as long as the button is held. Then, when released, bypass returns to the off state.
