While I tend to embrace the noise, we have riffs where a nice Blackmer-VCA gate is the needed ingredient. Plenty of headroom so you don't know it's there with a simple 2 control design. Use it in 2 or 4 cable method. Ignore the KEY jacks for 2 cable method or for 4 cable method, run your input to KEY INPUT, then KEY OUTPUT to the front of your pedalboard. Then run your FX send into the INPUT and FX return to the OUTPUT. This configuration will use the sensitivity of your original guitar signal to trigger the gate, while gating it after all of your noise creating dirt.

    Best Noise Gate I own

    Well all know that Shea makes great pedals, but after trying to use the noise gate (including the one that was on my amp) I was using before, and getting nothing but a squealing mess, as soon as I saw the Spectral Gate come up, I had to give it a try. It instantly tamed my high output noise without choking them. Normally I put in it in front of my board to keep my pickups in check, but I am happy to go 4 cable method if the amp I am using doesn't have a noise gate.

    The artwork is good as well, and if you're going to spend money on a pedal, it might as well look good!

    It just work

    One thing about the spectral that I'm a fan of is I can set it and forget it. I run it threw the front and the fx loop of my 5150 iconic and mind you I don't have to use the built in noise gate at all with this. The Grim 3 is a very strong pedal on its own and using Seymour Duncan blackouts which are very high out put pick ups this gate captures it all and I'm using less then 1/3 of the threshold. If you want a noise gate for the front and the back of your amplifier with no unwanted noise and still let you let noise ring out when you want and gate noise you don't I would recommend this. PS the packaging was great as well.
