Tame your hissing high-gain amp or silence your string of stompboxes with this ingenious pedal. The Smart Gate is equipped with three selectable types of noise reduction to handle virtually any type of signal. It bites down on sizzle and hum but lets the smallest detail of your playing through. With its uncanny ability to sense precisely when-and how fast-to engage, this little genius will never get in your way, so you can wring every last bit of sustain out of that chord without being cut off. The M135 features a hardwire bypass, precise threshold trigger, and amazingly clean circuitry.

Customers say
Customers find the noise gate pedal to be well-built and easy to use, with one customer noting its transparent operation. They appreciate its flexibility, with one mentioning adjustable settings for different instruments. The effectiveness and noise reduction receive mixed feedback – while some say it works great and provides nice noise reduction, others report it doesn’t eliminate enough hiss/noise and stops functioning within a year.
