More information about the noise gate
- 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." Source
- Wikipedia
Settings and parameters
- The Input Noise Gate on the II works different than on the Standard/Ultra. Adjusting Threshold won't do anything, Ratio must be adjusted as well.
- Firmware 5 release notes: "New gate uses dynamic filtering in addition to downward expansion."
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.
Gate/Expander block
The Axe-Fx II has additional noise gate blocks: Gate/Expander (FX block).
Vol block as a noise gate
This thread offers a different approach to keeping the noise low. It's 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.
