  • Page 3: Limited Warranty

    LIMITED WARRANTY Make Noise warrants this product to be free of defects in materials or construction for a period of one year from the date of purchase (proof of purchase/invoice required). Malfunction resulting from wrong power supply voltages, backwards or reversed eurorack bus board cable connection, abuse of the product, removing knobs, changing faceplates, or any other causes determined by Make Noise to be the fault of the user are not covered by this warranty, and normal service rates will apply.

  • Page 4: Installation

    Eurorack style bus board, minding the polarity so that the RED stripe on the cable is oriented to the NEGATIVE 12 Volt line on both the module and the bus board. On the Make Noise 6U or 3U Busboard, the negative 12 Volt line is indicated by the white stripe.

    XPO, QPAS, Morphagene, Mimeophon, and other stereo modules by Make Noise or others. Unique to the DXG is a new low pass gate circuit that does not use vactrols. This circuit is 100% analog and its response was arrived at after many months tailoring it to meet or exceed the expectations that have been set by all the vactrol low pass gates that Make Noise has created over the years.

  • Page 6: Panel Controls

    PANEL CONTROLS Left and Right Inputs: Signal Inputs for low pass gate. Expects 10v peak-to-peak modular level signal. Use Left (Mono) input alone for Mono sound sources. STRIKE Input. Gate input for “striking” the low pass gate. Reacts to 5V, 8V, or 10V gates. CTRL Input.
  • Page 7 Manual manipulation of the controls will not well display this phenomenon. A fast/ short envelope (control signal) of around +8V will provide a beautiful example of the DXG’s ability to produce acoustic-like Attack & Decay transients. The processed signal will seem to ring, not unlike a struck drum, piano string or xylophone bar.

  • Page 8: Stereo Use And Mixing

    STEREO USE AND MIXING Each channel of the DXG is actually two Low Pass Gates that are controlled by the same CTRL input. This allows for the gating and mixing of stereo signals. Channel 2 also has an individual channel output set.

  • Page 9: Tips & Tricks

    The Channel 2 outputs can be great for parallel processing. For example, band pass filter or ring modulate your gated sound, run it through a delay or reverb, then mix the result back into the DXG via the Aux inputs.
