This effect is bit diferent from other noise suppresors, this could be the reason you choose it or the reason you refuse to use it, it brings you more control to adjust and, in my opinion, is more precise at this point but less efficent supressing the noise.

decent silencer but a little hard to handle
t bought is in front of my bedalboard but have used not so offen because to get best funcionality(mute all fuzzing sonds) you have to test and learn this unit. built quality is very good as expected from Electro Harmonisc .
I recomend this

Good solution
Work very vell , im using it with its internal loop so it only affects drive pedals . Very solid construction, versatile for many aplications.

Silencer does silence but requires attention to detail.
Overall a good noise reduction pedal, the user would need to be very precise while setting the threshold. Best to use it in a loop around one sound, either clean, crunch or high gain and then in each one of these decide the consistency of the attack of your picking hand. Overall a good product.

cons first - only one
noise gates are not meant to change the tone of a guitar , t
this one did .
pros -
it is well made and does the job it is meant to do .
it can be used as a signal splitter so you can use 2 amps at the same time
i like this pedal apart from the fact it changed my guitars tone a little bit , it silenced noise and i was able to use it for d'jent , there are cheaper and more expensive pedals on the market and i think in future i will look at cheaper ones first , my advice to you would be to do the same .

good gate
My mini-rig consists of Randall RD-1 head+1x12 cab, delay and a boost up front. Main guitar has EMG 57 in bridge. This setup has been completely silent in different rooms even though I play hi-gain stuff primarely. After we moved to a new house my music room has been getting bad EMI noise. This noise supressor makes everything noticeably more silent and adds extra tightness aswell. Controls I use: gate about 11 oclock, threshold 13 and reduction 13. I have discovered that the most effective knob is threshold. Gate affects the sound mostly full on. But then it cuts too much sound. X-pattern didnt change things much because I have no distortions in the loop. Only clean boost(bad monkey). When going for light crunch or guitar volume rolloff the SIlencer is better to be switched off because it starts to cut the weakened signal pretty badly. But this is not the pedals fault - rather something all gates do. EH power supply 9,6v works perfectly with the pedal. Good product specially for the price.

decent gate
This is a good gate that would be great if it was faster. controlling the decay before the cut off is a nice touch , but its not fast enough really for modern metal/djent, which is really why I bought it. But for leads its great, it wont cut the end of your notes off if you dial the decay control in properly

And silences it does.
Always had a lot of noise coming straight from the wall, the overdrive and fuzz did absolutely no good to it either. Was desperate to get rid of the damn noise, put this in front and gone it was. Works like a charm, had to play with the settings for a while to get the release just right, but in the end, 100% happy with this pedal. No real con, just make sure you buy a few longer patch cables to avoid send/return cable length issues.

NOT A NOISE REDUCTION PEDAL
Brilliant pedal BUT its a GATE,the BEST GATE EVER though,but unfortunately its not a suppressor or noise reduction,i need sth to kill the hiss and hum specifically and not mute the signal,but thats just me.
As a gate,you wont find anything better especially with an effects loop thingy!!!
