ATTENTION
IF YOU
BEGIN WITHOUT READING THIS
MANUAL, YOUR NEW 166 MAY SEEM TO BE NOT
WORKING PROPERLY.
NO AUDIO
If you're not getting any audio out
of
the 166,
check
the CATE knob. Is the Threshold off? If not, turn
it off
(full counterclockwise).
If the Threshold isn't off, the circuit
will attenuate
the signal 40
dB,
which wilt
stop
the audio from
passing. Note that signals BELOW the Cate threshold
are gated; signals ABOVE the compression threshold
are compressed. If ifs vice versa, nothing happens.
Refer to the manual.
NO
COMPRESSION
Did you plug into the Sidechain input? Take it out.
Patch in ONLY when
you
have
sidechain
applications
(again,
refer
to the manual). Also check to make sure
the Sidechain Monitor button isn't pushed in.
