A signal to gate, is the process of reading and detecting an
audio signal and then turn it into an ON/OFF function.
When the audio signal reaches a certain level, an ON order is
produced, while when the signal falls below the same level,
an OFF order is produced.
The level that the ON/OFF is produced, can be manually
specified by the Threshold control knob.
[Threshold is controlled with the SHIFT+RATE knob]
The lower the Threshold amount, the easier an ON order will
be produced.
But what is the use of the signal to gate when using the
Treminator effect pedal?
A. WAVEFORM RESET: Restarts the LFO waveform [that is
when SHIFT+SHAPE is set to more than 50% ]
B. FADE IN/OUT: Activates the Tremolo's amount expres-
sion
C. SPEEDUP/SLOWDOWN: Activates the LFO's speed
expression
2. LFO waveform reset
In order to activate this feature, you need to set the WAVE-
FORM RESET [SHIFT+SHAPE] at 50% or more. When you do
this, each time a new Signal to Gate goes ON, the LFO will
restart its waveform. To easily understand this effect, set a
very hard and relatively slow (3-4 sec) tremolo effect and
observe that the LFO will start over.
A waveform reset is also produced by the TAP TEMPO
footswitch, each time a new tempo is received.
Circuit: Analog signal, digital modulations
Bypass: Buffered opamp, a constant 3 to 4dB volume drop is expected and is compensated over the tremolo effect, to counter the "signal volume drop" feeling a tremolo has.
3. FADE IN/OUT
A FADE IN effect in Treminator, occurs when the tremolo
depth starts from 0% and reaches up to the level you have
the DEPTH knob set to.
For example: If you have the DEPTH knob at 50%, and you
set some FADE IN amount, each time a signal to gate is
produced, the tremolo effect disappears and gradually
comes back to the 50% DEPTH level.
The FADE OUT does the exact opposite:
It starts from the DEPTH level, only to gradually reach 50%
level.
4. Speed expression
This effect acts as the above feature, but instead of
controlling the LFO depth, you control the LFO RATE. So,
when having some SPEEDUP amount, you start from the
indicated RATE amount and you speedup according to how
much speed RATE EXPRESSION AMOUNT you have applied.
The SLOWDOWN is the exact reverse: You start at the RATE
EXPRESSION AMOUNT, only to reach the LFO RATE you have
set.
5. Setting up the SIGNAL TO GATE
In order to successfully use the above features, you need to
have the Signal to gate set right.
Connect the pedal and set it up as specified on the "Getting
started" section.
Use your instrument as you would do in normal conditions
and observe the right LED.
You want to be able to fully and easily control when the LED
goes ON or OFF.
Adjust the THRESHOLD amount until the above is achieved.
