USING THE ENHANCER

Once a signal is going through the ProChannel, turn up the 'DRIVE' control
until the Enhance LED (En) just starts to flicker on loud peak sounds. (The
LED stays slightly on all the time; this is normal)
Turn up the 'ENHANCE' control until it sounds right.
Like the Compress control, the ENHANCE control just adds the
enhancement so if it is turned to minimum there is no effect.
Once the effect is audible, experiment with the three controls to get the
desired sound.
'DRIVE' affects the depth and 'tone' of the enhancement.
'Q' affects the length of the high frequency harmonic after the syllable that
created it.
CAUTION. If in any doubt at all, leave enhancement till the mixdown; its
easy to put on but impossible to take off!

SAMPLE SETTINGS

This section is aimed at providing a good starting point for getting good
results. While these settings do not guarantee a good sound, they do work
in most situations. The correct level of the input gain and output gain
cannot be predicted. This depends on your source and monitoring
equipment. Always try to run these as high as you can without creating any
audible distortion.
