The Ibanez PTGATE introduces the standalone version of the GATE section from the acclaimed Ibanez Pentatone Preamp. Purposefully designed to deliver a swift response and natural sustain, the Pentatone Gate boasts an additional threshold mode switch for nuanced control over the gate's threshold within a suitable range. This pedal features intuitive controls, with a single Threshold knob ensuring simple operation while achieving the desired gating effect. The threshold mode switch provides flexibility by allowing users to toggle between High and Low threshold ranges. With a compact design and weighing in at (1.0lb) including the battery, the PTGATE is a portable solution for noise reduction in a guitarist's signal chain. The 4 I/O jacks enhance its versatility, enabling strategic placement in a signal chain - ideal for use after distortion pedals or between the send/return of a guitar amplifier. Powered by a 9V battery (006P) or an external AC adapter, the PTGATE ensures a seamless, noise-free performance with true bypass functionality.
