Noise Gates
A noise gate is used to control the volume of an audio signal. In its most simple form, a noise gate allows a signal to pass
through only when it is above a set threshold. When this happens, the gate is ‘open’. If the signal falls below the threshold no
signal is allowed to pass (or the signal is substanally aenuated) and the gate is ‘closed’. The available noise gate pedals are:
•DigiTech Auto Swell Gate
This noise gate will also let you set the threshold of the noise oor,
but instead of a strict feel of opening and closingthe gate, you get
more of an auto volume swell eect making it a smoother transion
between the open and closed posions.
•DigiTech Silencer Noise Gate
This noise gate allows you to reduce line noise when the signal level
falls below the set threshold.
