A noise gate works by detecting a signal on the input and cut at every silences at the output, so to detect audio signals better, it is primordial to have the lowest noise as possible at the input. The noise generated by your effects reduces the amplitude difference between the audio signal and the noise floor, making it harder to accurately detect what’s the signal and what needs to be cut. The silencer solves all of that by having a loop, your instrument’s signal will be detected at the input, everything placed in the loop wont be used for signal detection, and the noise will be accurately be removed at the output. The Silencer features a single threshold control, allowing you to dial the correct amount of noise reduction for your needs.
