Congratulations on choosing the M-135 MXR Smart Gate pedal!

Like all Dunlop products, this unique effect is designed to give

you quality sound through years of dependable service.

DESCRIPTION

The MXR Smart Gate features independent high and low adaptive filters

and control circuits, which create the most transparent noise suppression

system available today. Whichever noise gate filter cut-off point is selected,

Hiss, Mid, or Full Band, the MXR Smart Gate knows to gate out noise slow-

ly when notes are being held, and quickly when they are stopped short. It

will not cut off the end of notes. The gate’s attack time is extremely fast and

will not degrade picking transients or harmonic overtones. Performance,

road tuff housing, and easy operation make the M-135 Smart Gate live up to

the status of the MXR classics.

POWER

The MXR M-135 Smart Gate uses one 9-volt battery. The battery access is

through the bottom of the pedal. The Smart Gate uses the Dunlop ECB03

Adapter (ECB03E for Europe), a 9-volt DC regulated AC adapter. Plug polarity

is positive on the barrel and negative in the center. Note: Battery must be

installed to operate the Smart Gate unless an AC adapter is used.

C B D A A B C D Footswitch toggles Effect On/Bypass (red LED indicates on). Trigger Level varies the sensitivity of the gate‘s threshold, allowing it to be adjustable to any input source. The Gate LED intensity shows level of noise reduction. Noise Band Cut Switch determines the lowest limit of noise gate filter.

DIRECTIONS • For initial settings, set the Trigger Level to full counterclockwise and the Noise Band Cut to either Hiss, Mid or Full, depending on the frequency band of noise you are interested in suppressing. • Insert a 9-volt battery and/or plug in AC adapter into the MXR Smart Gate. The MXR Smart Gate pedal will operate on either power source.
