| − | * Cliff: "I don't use the gate at all. On the Ultra I would use the gate on high gain patches but I find I don't need it now. I did some measurements and the II is at least 10 dB better SNR."

| − | * Firmware 5 release notes: "New gate uses dynamic filtering in addition to downward expansion."
| |

| − | ==Settings and parameters==
| |
| − | * The Input Noise Gate on the II works different than on the Standard/Ultra. Adjusting Threshold won't do anything if Ratio isn't adjusted as well.
| |
| − | * Cliff (firmware 10): "I DID change the default attack time. For a guitar gate you typically want the attack time as short as possible and I don't think people realize this so I changed the default value." [http://forum.fractalaudio.com/axe-fx-ii-discussion/67381-has-gate-been-improved-just-way-amps-interact.html#post829960 Source]
| |
| − | * Firmware 11: noise gate settings can be saved as global blocks.
| |
| − | * Firmware 11: "Added Level parameter to Noise Gate. This allows sending a lower or higher level into the effects grid which can be used to compensate for guitars with varying output."
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==CPU utilization==
| |
| − | * The Noise Gate uses CPU cycles, so switch it off (turn Threshold to Off) if you have no need for it in a preset.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Alternatives==
| |
| − | * The Axe-Fx II has additional noise gate blocks: [[Gate/Expander (block)]].
| |
| − | * A different approach to keeping the noise low: try a Vol block with the volume parameter tied to the Envelope controller. As long as you don't hit the strings, the (input) signal is off.
