Electro-HarmonixSilencer Noise Gate Guitar Effects Pedal
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Silencer is a controllable noise gate for placing on one pedal or around an effects loop. Threshold determines when your signal opens the gate, Reduction sets the amount of attenuation, and Release determines how long it stays open after the signal falls below that point. The Send and Return connections let it work with a loop, while its footswitch switches between engaged and buffered-bypass operation.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Dialing in gate response around a single pedal with separate threshold, reduction, and release controls.
- Putting a noise gate around an effects loop using the dedicated Send and Return jacks.
