Electro Harmonix EHX Silencer Noise Gate / Effects Loop Guitar Pedal

A sophisticated noise gate that can tame a singlepedal or an entire effects loop! The Silencers three-control layoutprovides precise fine-tuning to fit your system, axe and playing style.Threshold adjusts how much level is required to open the noise gate andallow a signal to pass thru. Reduction regulated the degree to which thegated signal is reduced and is variable between -70dB and +4dB. Release controls how long the gate remains open after the signal drops belowthe Threshold. Release time is variable between 8ms and 4 seconds.

I/O includes  Input, Output, Send and Return jacks. The
footswitch selects whether The Silencer is engaged or in bypass mode;
buffered bypass allows the effects loop to remain in your signal path
when the gate is bypassed. A built-in AC jack accepts a standard power
supply like the EHX 9.6DC unit (optional) and the pedal comes with a 9V
battery.
