Problem-solving Enhance feature Three common challenges that guitar-playing recordists often encounter are a lack of amp-like response, difficulty with setting input levels without clipping, and dull-sounding tracks. The Polar 4’s per-channel Enhance switch takes these issues entirely out of the equation. Engaging this feature not only safeguards against clipping to provide a foolproof input setting, but it also allows your input to behave more like a tube amplifier when recording instruments and adds extra air and clarity when recording with a microphone.
