GUITAR

The Decimator Noise Reduction pedal is the latest
generation in noise reduction technology. The Decimator
features Time Vector Processing that offers a novel
approach in tracking the envelope of the input signal. The
TVP 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 pedal should always be the last device in the signal chain.

BATTERY ACCESS

The threshold control on the Decimator 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, place
the battery into its compartment, and close by holding the
switch cover down and tightening the thumbscrew.

To use the Decimator 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.”
