OPERATING - INPUT/OUTPUT SECTION
INPUT GAIN & 1/L-2/R INPUT LEDs
This knob controls the input level for both the
analog and digital input options. A correctly set
input level is essential to achieve optimal
performance with least possible noise.
To set the Input level:
Clean sounds have the most dynamics. Play
powerful chords with the loudest clean sound
you use and adjust the Input Gain accordingly.
The Input LEDs indicate the level using three
colors.
Green : -40dB - You are "well on the safe
side".
Yellow : -6dB - You are close to optimal
performance.
Red : -1dB - Red LED only blink
occasionally at absolute peaks.

BYPASS LED
When the LED is lit, G-Sharp is in bypass
mode. The bypass function operates differently
depending on whether you are in Killdry mode
or not.
Killdry "on":
The BYPASS key operates as a mute function.
Killdry "off":
The bypass function simply passes the source
signal unprocessed to output.
Killdry ON LED
Killdry mode is selected on the rear panel.
When it is selected, no clean signal passes
through the G-Sharp. This is the setting to use
if you connect G-Sharp in a parallel loop or e.g.
in an aux send/return on a mixer.
