This type of dynamic process is very useful for the dynamic control of instruments or
“single” sounds.
Mono 2 Band + 5 Bands EQ Compressor Presets
There are 8 presets available using the above algorithms:
1) Classic 1 2) Classic 2
3) Classic 3 4) Classic 4
5) Classic 5 6) Classic 6
7) Classic 7 8) Classic 8
These are all designed for use with single instruments. These presets are well tailored
for use on classic guitars or acoustic instruments, where different equalizations of the
sound (ranging from bright equalizations to warmer ones) can give the instruments more
or less character and deepness.

INSPECTION
Your DigiComp 16 was carefully packed at the factory in packaging designed to protect
the units in shipment. Before installing and using your unit, carefully examine the
packaging and all contents for any signs of physical damage that may have occurred in
transit.
(Note: Nady Systems is not responsible for shipping damage. If the unit is damaged in
shipping, do not return to us, but notify your dealer and the shipping company
immediately to make a claim. Such claims must be made by the consignee in a timely
manner.)
CONTENTS:
• DigiComp 16 (verify that the same serial number is the same as shown on
shipping carton)
• AC Power supply adapter
• Instruction manual
• Warranty Card
DESKTOP USE
The DigiComp 16 may be placed anywhere safely as needed where it will not fall or be
possibly damaged. Attach the rubber feet provided to the bottom of the unit if the unit is
placed on a surface you wish to protect.
(Note: The DigiComp 16 itself doesn’t generate any magnetic or hum fields, but it may
pick up hum or noise from fields generated by power amplifiers. If it does, re-position the
unit to eliminate the noise. Since the DigiComp 16 adapter may generate hum fields,
locate it away from other audio equipment or wiring as much as possible.)
RACK MOUNTING
The DigiComp 16 has single rack height, and up to three DigiComp 16’s may be
mounted side-by-side in a standard universal 19” equipment rack available from rack
manufacturers or your music dealer.
