Description
here at Just Pedals we love this Electro Harmonix Silencer Noise gate/effect loop.
A sophisticated noise gate that can tame a single pedal or an entire effects loop! The Silencer’s three-control layout provides precise fine-tuning to fit your system, axe and playing style. Threshold adjusts how much level is required to open the noise gate and allow a signal to pass thru. Reduction regulated the degree to which the gated signal is reduced and is variable between -70dB and +4dB. Release controls how long the gate remains open after the signal drops below the Threshold. Release time is variable between 8ms and 4 seconds.
I/O includes ¼ inch 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.

Loop
Loop pedals, available on justpedals.co.uk, are powerful tools that allow guitarists and musicians to record and layer audio in real time, creating complex soundscapes or rhythmic backing without needing a full band. By capturing and playing back phrases instantly, loop pedals give users the ability to build rich, multi-layered music on their own. These pedals can be used to craft intricate compositions, practice timing and precision, or experiment with textures by layering riffs, chords, and rhythms repeatedly. Whether for solo performers, small band setups, or creative exploration, loop pedals are versatile devices that elevate a musician’s possibilities.
Each loop pedal on this page offers a unique range of features, accommodating various needs and experience levels. Some loop pedals include multiple tracks, allowing for seamless layering of different parts of a song, while others provide additional effects like reverb or reverse playback to add depth and variation to the loops. Justpedals.co.uk offers options for every musician, from beginners looking for simple single-track looping to professionals who require extensive control and flexibility. These pedals enable musicians to bring out new dimensions in their music, enhance live performances, and craft polished compositions on their own.
Noise
Noise gates, available on justpedals.co.uk, are pedals designed to reduce or eliminate unwanted background noise in a musician’s signal chain. They work by setting a threshold level so that only sounds above that level pass through, while softer, unwanted noises—like hum, hiss, or amp buzz—are suppressed or “gated” out. This is particularly useful in live performance or recording settings, where background noise can distract from the clarity and precision of a musician’s tone. Noise gates can create a cleaner, more polished sound, especially when used with high-gain setups or multiple pedals that may introduce noise.
These pedals typically offer adjustable controls for threshold, decay, and sometimes attack, allowing musicians to fine-tune the noise gate’s response for their specific setup and style. By setting the right threshold, musicians can preserve the dynamics of their playing while effectively managing noise. The noise gates on justpedals.co.uk cater to various needs, from straightforward, easy-to-use models to more advanced options with nuanced control settings. For guitarists and other musicians seeking a cleaner, more professional sound, noise gates provide a valuable solution to manage unwanted audio interference in their signal path.
