DIRECTIONS:
To begin using your MXR Smart Gate Pro, plug it into your amp's effects
loop by running a cable from the amp's effect send jack to the input jack
of Channel A on the Smart Gate Pro. Then run another cable from the
Smart Gate Pro's output jack to your amplifier's effect return jack. Now
plug a guitar into your amp, turn on the Smart Gate Pro, and then turn on
your amplifier. With the Smart Gate Pro in bypass mode (Channel A Gate
button out, Sel and On LEDs not illuminated), set your amp to a
reasonably loud distorted tone. Push the Gate button in and listen to
what happens to the noise level as you alternate between the Hiss, Mid,
and Full settings, as well as the various settings on the Threshhold
knob. The Range button will also influence how much noise is reduced.
Once you get a feel for how the Smart Gate Pro operates, it's easy to set
it up for a variety of tones and applications.
The MXR Smart Gate Pro is powered by the Dunlop ECB-004 adapter, an 18-volt
DC regulated AC adapter. Plug polarity is positive on the barrel and negative
on the center.
Note: An AC adapter must be used to operate the Smart Gate Pro.
