saturn Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I have a noise gate type function on my ME-50, but usually don't use it. I'd rather have a little buzz than have the sound suddenly cut out on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolff Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hmmm...never had that happen with the sound cutting out. I'm pretty surprised at this. I figured everybody used some kind of suppressor but I guess nobody except me does? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveinspain Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I think the Lounge area handles the amp and fx questions or comments well.... The thing that I didn't like about GT (GearTalk forum) was there were too many sections, got confusing and lost the sense of community. Seemed that way to me, but thats just me....

ne14t? Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I use the one in my Line 6 POD combine the noise gate with the built in (non effect) compressor in the POD I have found a REAL happy medium between utter silence from the gate and restored harmonics with the compressor. Definitely not for everyone, I really only use it when I am cranking the crap out of the gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duane v Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 I would say try and solve the noise issue first with quality cables, and using a GFCI power strips. Then check your guitars and make sure they are grounded / shielded properly.... that is one the most over-looked areas when it comes to guitars. Next check the amp... tube amps with a flaky tube can make a buzzy noise, also some amps have a polarity switch that can quite the noise a bit. 1. Is the noise apparent when the amp is turned with no guitar plugged in? 2. Or is there only noise when a guitar is plugged in to the amp? Keep in mind a noise suppressor never gets rid of the noise... it's still there while your playing and can really hurt the color of your effects.

retrosurfer1959 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 ISP Decimator - when needed and depending on the guitar - it's easy to use and set and adds no artificial artifects and will clean up single coils without any issues. I'm surprised more people don't use one also, it's the easiest way to get rid of single coil hum and other noise artifects from overdrive that annoy the hell out of me.
