The Decimator II Noise Reduction pedal is the latest

generation in noise reduction technology. The

Decimator features improved Linear Time Vector

Processing that offers the smoothest, ripple free

approach in tracking the envelope of the input signal.

The LTVP will instantly respond to short staccato notes

and at the same time provide ripple free control of long

sustained notes while downward expanding. The

Decimator pedal is easy to use and simple to operate.

The threshold control on the Decimator II should be

adjusted by listening to the noise floor while no

instrument signal is present. The threshold control

should be turned clockwise until the noise floor

becomes inaudible. It may be necessary to readjust the

threshold with the guitar volume all the way on in order

to accommodate the additional noise the guitar may

induce. Adjusting the threshold too far clockwise may

cause the downward expander to attenuate the output

level too quickly and not allow the signal to decay

naturally.

BATTERY / ADAPTER

To install the battery, loosen the thumbscrew shown

above and raise the switch cover to allow access to the

battery compartment. Insert a 9v battery to the

connector and place the battery into its compartment

and close by holding the switch cover down and

tightening the thumbscrew.

To use the Decimator II with an external power adapter,

select an adapter with at least 100 milliamps capability

at 9 volts DC. Make sure the adapter is polarized “TIP

NEGATIVE”.

CONNECTIONS

For best performance place all gain pedals in

front of the Decimator II. You can put Delay

and Reverb effects pedals after the Decimator

II to avoid cutting off reverb and delay tails.

NOTE: When connecting the Decimator into

the effects loop of your amplifier connect the

send to the Decimator II Input and return to

Decimator II Output.

This diagram on the left shows how to LINK two Decimator II pedals allowing the second pedal to track the direct instrument input. This will allow the second pedals’ internal level detector to track the guitar directly, providing tracking performance similar to the professional rack mount Decimator ProRack G. Connect an RTS 1/8 inch cable from the LINK OUT of the first pedal to the LINK IN of the second pedal.
