  • Page 3: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION The NGR-1 is an innovative noise gate pedal featuring a fully analog signal path with digital control. While noise gates are nothing new in the world of guitar and bass, what sets the NGR-1 apart is its entirely fresh and unprecedented approach.”...

    Stop doing this! Plus, if you have any midi board, you can set up to 32 different threshold levels according to sound you’re using! - A/B mode: rather than turning on/off NGR-1, footswitch can be configured to be a toggle switch between two global presets (two threshold levels). This way you can have a very high threshold for cleanish sounds, opposite to a lower threshold level for heavy stuff, while keeping NGR-1 always on.

    • MIDI IN & THRU: 3.5mm jacks for midi input and thru signals. • INPUT & THRU JACKS (sidechain/buffer): to use NGR-1 in four cable method, wire your guitar at INPUT jack (right side) to the next pedal or to amp input from THRU jack (left side).

  • Page 6: First Use

    TIP: A noise gate pedal must be placed AFTER a noise source. Two Cable Method (with clean amp/distortion pedals) The easiest way to get started with the NGR-1 is to use it like a standard stompbox— especially if your main goal is to tame unwanted noise from your overdrive or distortion pedals.
  • Page 7 Two Cable Method (with distorted amp) Another quick way to reduce amp noise is by placing the NGR-1 after your amp’s preamp section—in other words, in your amp’s effects loop (send/return). In this setup, you’ll again be using only the GATE section of the pedal. Use the top row of jacks: the input (arrow pointing into the pedal) receives the signal from your amp’s...
  • Page 8 Input NGR-1 Let’s say you’re using a dual-channel amp with a clean channel and a high-gain distorted channel. A standard noise gate with a fixed threshold just doesn’t cut it—if the threshold is set too high, your clean channel gets muted even when you’re playing hard.
  • Page 9 MIDI NGR-1 can be operated remotely with MIDI. An input and thru ports via two 3,5mm jacks are available on left side of the pedal. 3,5mm male to standard 5PIN female adapters are included in the package, for easier chaining with other MIDI devices.

  • Page 12 Think about couple sounds you have in your board that might need different gate levels, but it’s a pain in the ass to move that knob around for whole gig: et voilà, problem solved! Every time you need one or the other, simply press NGR-1 footswitch.
  • Page 13 SHIFT SELECTION Noise gates are most of the time associated with heavy music styles, and so used in many rock, hard rock, metal and heavy metal genres. We didn’t want to create a single use pedal, so we give user the ability so select between couple “shifts”, or in more technical words, couple different ways in how VCA will turn down your signal.

    • I’m not able to bypass the pedal, it shows A or B on main screen and pedal won’t bypass: please check pg.10 of this manual. • I’m not sure on how to correctly wire NGR-1: please check pg.6 of this manual.
