When you have a balanced insert point or are inserting the gate in a balanced line, connect
the output or send signal of the console or line to the input of the dBG-8, and connect the
output of the gate to the Return or input connection of the console or line.
MIXING CONSOLE
INSERT
Grounds
Connecting a number of equipment via inputs and outputs, especially when going from one
piece of equipment to another and returning, can cause hum, generated by ground loops.
Connections to the safety "earth" via the power chord can participate to this hum problem.
DO NEVER CUT THE EARTHING of equipment which is meant to be earthed. In case of
persisting hum problems you can try to lift the ground on the dBG-8 respective input(s). This
is done via a jumper on the circuit board. Removing this jumper will disconnect the electrical
circuit ground from the chassis of the dBG-8. This requires opening up the equipment and
should only be done by qualified technicians.
