Output Mode parameter
Use the Output Mode parameter to specify if gui-
tar output levels should be variable or fixed.
Parameter settings:
– Unity Gain: Maintains a constant guitar level
output, regardless of Mix settings.
If you have an expression pedal connected
and have it set to control guitar volume, the
guitar output level will be affected.
– Variable Level: Changes to the guitar level on
the Mix screen will affect the level of the gui-
tar outputs.
This parameter is only applicable to the ¼” guitar
outputs, not the XLR outputs. The XLR outputs
always allow variations of guitar level via the mix
screen, as long as no ¼” guitar outputs are con-
nected.
Gate Threshold parameter
Use the Gate Threshold parameter to set the
threshold for the guitar gate. A gate “closes” or
mutes the sound when it reaches a specific low
volume threshold.
To set the gate effectively, play a note or chord,
letting it ring out for a while. You will notice that
it reaches a certain volume and then goes com-
pletely silent. This indicates that the gate has
“closed”, effectively muting the output. The key
is to find a gate threshold setting that allows for
your instrument to naturally ring and sustain, but
still reduces noise when you are not playing. You
will need to experiment to find the optimal set-
ting for your personal style and needs.
