MAXIMISING SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO
The SlideRIG is extremely quiet by the standards of most
pedals. However, i t does employ a lot of clean gain and can
quickly highlight noise induced in pickups and other effects
units. Humbuckers allow you to push things further without
suffering from 50Hz mains h u m. To avoid amplifying noise
created by other pedals, we recommend placing the SlideRIG
Compact straight after your guitar and before any other
effects.
Keep the guitar’s volume up for best results. This will be
counter-intuitive for some, especially those who l ik e to
manipulate stage level directly from the guitar, but you
quickly get used to things! Volume pedal s must be placed
after the pedal, as the Sl i deRIG will laugh in the face of any
coordinated changes in signal level, and will work to
maintain a consis ten t output! However, placing a volume
pedal after the unit is a great way to manage stage levels.
