Kill-Dry feature

Kill-Dry feature

The Kill-Dry feature allows you (you guessed it) to “kill” the dry 
signal and only keep the processed signal.
If you use this pedal in the parallel effects loop of your guitar ampli-
fier, you do not want the dry (unprocessed) signal to pass through 
the pedal, as this could lead to undesired phasing and cancellation 
effects. 
To activate Kill-Dry, you have to open the device.

 

– Unscrew the back plate and look for the two small dip switches 

shown in the illustration.

  When the pedal is set to Buffered Bypass mode (see page 27), 

you can use the right dip switch (labelled “2”) to activate Kill-
Dry.

  When the pedal is set to True Bypass mode, Kill-Dry is not an 

option.

 
  Kill-Dry off 

Kill-Dry on

  The default mode is Kill-Dry off – i.e., by default, the dry signal 

is being passed through the pedal.
