ZNR
ZNR (ZOOM Noise Reduction) module
This module serves for reducing noise during playing pauses. It offers a choice between
noise reduction (reduction of noise components) and noise gate (muting during pauses).
nr
ZNR (ZOOM Noise Reduction)
ZOOM original noise reduction which reduces noise in playing pauses without affecting the overall tone.
Gt
GATE
This is a noise gate which cuts off the sound during playing pauses.
dG
DIRTY GATE
This is a vintage type gate with special closing characteristics.
All above effect types have the same parameters.
THRESHOLD
