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 in guitar effects refers to unwanted sounds or interference that can disrupt the clean signal. This can come from various sources, such as electrical interference, grounding issues, or even the pedals themselves. Common types of noise include hum, often from power sources or fluorescent lights, hiss, which can arise from high-gain settings or amplifiers, and feedback, which happens when the sound loops uncontrollably between the guitar, amp, and effects.
Many guitarists use noise gates or power conditioners to reduce unwanted noise, while some pedals are designed specifically to manage or eliminate hum or hiss. Properly isolating your power sources and maintaining good cable management can also help reduce noise in your signal chain.
