MIXER
Pressing N.GATE [F2] shows the following screen:
The parameters are:
THRESHOLD Sets the threshold for the noise gate.
HYSTERESIS Smoothes the closure of the gate and prevents ‘chatter’ if the gate is rapidly opening
and closing with a decaying signal around the threshold level.
RANGE Allows a certain proportion of the signal to always pass through. Normally, this will be
set low so that no signal passes through but setting a slightly higher range can be useful
if the gating effect is too abrupt.
ATTACK Sets the length of time it takes for the gate to open. Typically, this will be set to 0mS.
RELEASE Set the time it takes for the gate to decay to the threshold level.
HOLD Determines the length of time the gate is open after the attack cycle has reached full
level.
STEREO CHANNELS
Channels can be linked to act as a stereo pair. This is achieved simply by pressing and holding an odd numbered
channel’s SELECT key and pressing an adjacent even numbered channel or vice versa.
➸
NOTE :
When two channels are linked as stereo and one channel’s parameters are different to the other, one
channel will adopt the settings of the other. This is achieved according to the order in which you press the
channel SELECT keys. For example, if you press the even numbered channel first and then the odd numbered
channel, the even numbered channel’s settings will be copied to the odd numbered channel and the even num-
bered channel’s automation data will be used. If you press the odd numbered channel first and then the even
numbered channel, the odd numbered channel’s parameters will be copied across to the adjacent even numbered
channel and the odd numbered channel’s automation will be used.
