The signal-pollution from the decadent, noise-producing effect pedals is not welcome behind the iron curtain!

Iron Curtain is a classic, simple no-nonsense noise gate with intuitive controls, high quality components and zero tolerance for any unwanted noise
in your signal – only the purest tone is welcome in the noise-free republic!

Key Features

  • The Fastest Noise Gate – Speedy and effective noise gate reduces unwanted noise from your guitar signal
  • Simple Controls – Easy to use 2-knob interface controls threshold and decay
  • All Anologue – All-analogue circuit for zero latency and no-noise operation
  • Pedalboard Friendly – True bypass for ultimate signal integrity
  • Durable – “Built-like-a-tank” metal chassis

High Quality Analogue Circuitry

Stray noise can come from a variety of places: vintage amplifiers; single-coil pickups; light dimmer circuits – plus some venues just have a lot of inherent noise. If your performance calls for everything from sweet and soft passages with barely audible notes to wailing like there’s no tomorrow, IRON CURTAIN NOISE GATE’s all analog circuit blocks the noise and lets your tone through in all its glory.

Specifications

  • Runs on 9 V battery or PSU-SB DC power supply (not included)

TC Electronic

Founded in Denmark in 1976 by brothers Kim and John Rishoj, TC Electronic first made its mark with the Stereo Chorus Flanger (SCF), prized for its transparent modulation. The company later developed the TC 2290 digital delay, a landmark studio processor, and extended its guitar range with compact effects, loopers and TonePrint-enabled pedals. JustPedals listings include the MojoMojo overdrive, Dark Matter distortion, Spark Booster, Ditto X2 looper and Flashback Triple Delay. TC Electronic now covers guitar, bass and voice products, so compare the exact model’s stereo routing, presets and control method.

Noise Gate Pedals

A noise gate reduces or mutes the signal when it falls below a threshold, separating wanted notes from hiss, hum and high-gain noise. Threshold decides when the gate closes, while attack, release and hold control how naturally it opens and how note tails decay. Side-chain or four-cable designs can detect the clean input while silencing noise later in the gain chain.

Analogue

The signal is shaped by continuously varying electronic circuitry rather than being converted into a digital effect algorithm. Component choice, operating voltage and circuit tolerances influence headroom, noise, clipping texture and the small variations in response between designs.

True Bypass

Connects input directly to output through mechanical or relay switching when the effect is off, removing the active circuit from the audio path. It avoids buffer colour but leaves cable capacitance and switching design to influence high-frequency loss and possible switching noise.
