Xvive Noise Gate

The Gatekeeper from Pigtronix is a lightning-fast, studio-grade noise gate pedal that eliminates any unwanted noise from your rig. Carrying Threshold and Release time controls, the Gatekeeper gives you 100% attenuation with unparalleled response time, making it the most efficient and valuable noise gate pedal available. It leverages high-speed JFET circuitry to fully get rid of hiss, buzz, hum, and other non-musical sounds from your signal path. The Gatekeeper will let you crank up your volume without worrying about hearing the disgusting 60-cycle hum or white noise common to high gain rigs.

No pedalboard setup built around high-gain stompboxes is complete without a reliable noise gate. The JF-324 Gate of Kahn guitar effects edal from Joyo may be small but it fill this role admirably. Dial in the perfect Threshold setting to keep away unwanted buzzes, hums, and hisses from your guitar signal then go to town with your high-gain units. As one of Joyo’s Ironman pedals, the JF-324 Gate of Kahn is small enough to fit in your front pocket and features a flip cover for keeping your control dial settings safe.

Rein in unruly and unwanted signal noise with the Kult Noise Gate GK-28 guitar effects pedal from GOKKO. This budget- and pedalboard-friendly stompbox helps reduce the hums, hisses, and buzzes that invariably show up to pollute your signal when you have a lot of pedals, especially high-gain ones, in your chain. Use the sensitivity control knob to tell the noise gate when to kick in and use the two-way selector switch to choose between a soft, gradual volume cut or a hard and steep drop.
