1976fenderhead Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Basically, I'd like to know, if you set the pedal for a very strong reduction, when you're playing (and so the gate is open), does the sound come out completely unaffected?

Toasted Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I'd really [b]really[/vb] recommend against using the NS-2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you recommend for a noisy Russian Big Muff which is on most of the time with gain near max? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then I couldn't find a well built pedal to replace the Muff, sounding the same but without the noise, so I started contemplating a gate... That pedal is a very good suggestion, thx. I'll post another topic asking for more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tayste_2000 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 (edited) Other decent pedals that are similar sounding ish MI Audio GI Fuzz Tone Factor Fuzzsaw - [url="http://myselfalone.com/tayste2000/ToneFactorFuzzSaw.mp3"]http://myselfalone.com/tayste2000/ToneFactorFuzzSaw.mp3[/url] Sonny & Sanford Bluebeard BYOC Big Beaver - [url="http://myselfalone.com/tayste2000/BYOC%20Big%20Beaver.mp3"]http://myselfalone.com/tayste2000/BYOC%20Big%20Beaver.mp3[/url] Anything by Skreddy The gate will not work well, it will cut your sustain down, sometimes making your playing spluttery, there will be a tonal difference with it on and off. There are only 2 noise gates I've ever liked the first built into the Subdecay Noise Box because you'd blow your amp up with out it and it stops noise when you hold your strings, second is in the Rane DC24 Rack Compressor and again it only comes on when you hold your strings.
