The Decimator II Noise Reduction pedal is the latest
generation in noise reduction technology. The
Decimator features improved Linear Time Vector
Processing that offers the smoothest, ripple free
approach in tracking the envelope of the input signal.
The LTVP will instantly respond to short staccato notes
and at the same time provide ripple free control of long
sustained notes while downward expanding. The
Decimator pedal is easy to use and simple to operate.
The threshold control on the Decimator II should be
adjusted by listening to the noise floor while no
instrument signal is present. The threshold control
should be turned clockwise until the noise floor
becomes inaudible. It may be necessary to readjust the
threshold with the guitar volume all the way on in order
to accommodate the additional noise the guitar may
induce. Adjusting the threshold too far clockwise may
cause the downward expander to attenuate the output
level too quickly and not allow the signal to decay
naturally.
BATTERY / ADAPTER
To install the battery, loosen the thumbscrew shown
above and raise the switch cover to allow access to the
battery compartment. Insert a 9v battery to the
connector and place the battery into its compartment
and close by holding the switch cover down and
tightening the thumbscrew.
To use the Decimator II with an external power adapter,
select an adapter with at least 100 milliamps capability
at 9 volts DC. Make sure the adapter is polarized “TIP
NEGATIVE”.
CONNECTIONS
For best performance place all gain pedals in
front of the Decimator II. You can put Delay
and Reverb effects pedals after the Decimator
II to avoid cutting off reverb and delay tails.
NOTE: When connecting the Decimator into
the effects loop of your amplifier connect the
send to the Decimator II Input and return to
Decimator II Output.
