SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE DEVICE Only use the device in permitted and functional outlets. Protect the device and the power plug against humidity, dripping or splash water to avoid the risk of electric shock. For example, do not place any liquids in containers or similar close to the device. Never place the device in extremely warm or cold environments and absolutely never in direct sun- light.

If your device is equipped with audio transformers, place it away from other equipment which may generate potentially disruptive magnetic fields. These may cause humming sounds and other noise interference. If this occurs, place the device elsewhere. The packing material is not a toy. Children should not play with plastic bags. There is a risk of suffoca- tion.
ETHERNET Connect your Schwerkraftmaschine to your local network to control it remotely from your computer. The Schwerkraftmaschine is able to communicate across 1 Gbit networks, although 1 Mbit/s is more than suf- ficient. MAINS JACK AND FUSE The device receives electricity through this socket.
SOFTWARE There are three ways to control your Schwerkraftmaschine: With the front panel controls, via the Schwerkraftmaschine’s internal web server or by using the DAW plug- WEB SERVER Just open the IP address of your Schwerkraftmaschine in your browser. Javascript must be enabled.
The actual speed also depends on the choosen MODE. BYPASS This switch causes a hard-wire bypass function of all signal processed by the Schwerkraftmaschine. The input signal is routed directly to the output. This is a relay-controlled hard bypass with an auto-bypass function during power failure (failsafe relay).
MODE The Schwerkraftmaschine can emulate different compression behaviours. Every mode will have its own timing, ratio and side-chain filter settings. Listen to the different modes to get used to its behaviour and choose the one the suits your music. See the MODE list on the next page for details.
MODES The Schwerkraftmaschine can emulate the compression behaviour of many different compressors. In the Schwerkraftmaschine, the signal passes through a total of three transformers and four triodes per channel. That’s why the Schwerkraftmaschine will always sound like a tube compressor.
With the Deesser you can filter annoying S-sounds from the signal. The SC LOWCUT control is used for frequency selection. From left to right, it covers a range of 500 Hz to 10 kHz. For a detailed description of each mode visit https://www.tegeler-audio-manufaktur.de/Schwerkraftmaschine#modi...
