MXR M135 User Manual

Congratulations on choosing the M-135 MXR Smart Gate pedal!
Like all Dunlop products, this unique effect is designed to give
you quality sound through years of dependable service.

DESCRIPTION

The MXR Smart Gate features independent high and low adaptive filters
and control circuits, which create the most transparent noise suppression
system available today. Whichever noise gate filter cut-off point is selected,
Hiss, Mid, or Full Band, the MXR Smart Gate knows to gate out noise slow-
ly when notes are being held, and quickly when they are stopped short. It
will not cut off the end of notes. The gate’s attack time is extremely fast and
will not degrade picking transients or harmonic overtones. Performance,
road tuff housing, and easy operation make the M-135 Smart Gate live up to
the status of the MXR classics.

POWER

The MXR M-135 Smart Gate uses one 9-volt battery. The battery access is
through the bottom of the pedal. The Smart Gate uses the Dunlop ECB03
Adapter (ECB03E for Europe), a 9-volt DC regulated AC adapter. Plug polarity
is positive on the barrel and negative in the center. Note:Battery must be
installed to operate the Smart Gate unless an AC adapter is used.
