POWER LED
When lit, this LED indicates that the Super C is powered and ready for operation.
HUSH THRESHOLD control
This control sets the point at which the downward expander and dynamic filter begin
to operate.
GATE THRESHOLD control and GATE RELEASE LED
This control is used to determine the level at which the gate will begin to operate.
As the input signal drops below this level, the gate will activate and downward
expansion will begin.
When lit, the Gate Release LED indicates that the input signal has dropped below
the level set by the Gate Threshold control, thus activating the gate and providing
additional downward expansion.
IN/OUT switch and LED
This switch allows for the Super C to be bypassed when noise reduction is not
required.
When lit, the LED indicates that the Super C is currently active in the signal path.
REF switch
This switch determines the sensitivity of the Super C. When using the Super C with
professional audio equipment providing a nominal output level +4dB, it is recommended
that the "+4dB" setting on the unit as the Threshold adjustment will allow you to
optimize noise reduction for this reference level.
If the "-10" setting is used and the unit is overdriven, the "+4" setting should
be used.
**The -10db setting is recommended for all instrument rigs.
