I THINK I tried that and the problem went away, but I'll try it again tonight. Still working on an effective way to record it.

So as it turns out, I'm getting some weird noises as well that I think are new. I haven't gone back to prior firmware versions to see when it started. I would describe it as a little of the above and a little of what Redd described. It's an "after-noise" that comes after a note decays, and it is like a distorted/buzzy echo. It happens for me on both clean and distorted patches, and I've narrowed it to the input noise gate. I currently use the intelligent gate, set to -60, 2.0, attack=1ms, release=1ms, 0db, auto. I get the noise when the attack and release are both set to 10ms as well. However, if I offset them - like attack=1ms, release=10 or 20ms, it seems to go away.
"Classic"
From the wiki: The gate features two types: “Classic” and “Intelligent”. The Classic type is a basic downward expander. The Intelligent type features faster and more stable gating along with a proprietary noise reduction algorithm.
LOL, I wasn't even close. Well maybe vintage/classic. I do notice when I use intelligent, when switching between a heavy lead and say super clean or reversed, there is a latency where the gate takes a moment to activate (the intelligent part analyzing before activating), and there is noise. Also if the preset is real heavy, the gate does not activate fast enough to stop the final floor noise before closing."Classic"

Agreed, but I noticed with the Intelligent gate, it does not matter what my settings are. I can set the gate to the fastest and there is still a lag when changing preset. For live, I like to be able to change a preset without a burst of noise. It doesn't lag with every preset change, but only certain ones. But it does it enough for me that I now don't use it. And I've tried tons of settings. I just figured it is the nature of the beast.Typically you want a fast attack and slow release otherwise you'll get noise as the gate rapidly opens and closes when the signal decays.
With 3.02 I'm getting a fuzz sound in the background that seems like a higher frequency like an AM radio buzz on my high gain amps. I've tried different guitars and speakers and it's still there. It subtle but its bothering me. Anyone else have this?
@RafterRattler it is the 1ms release time. That is too fast.
I tried out the preset. The only sound that I get like that from that preset is when I run the single coil, and that's interference from my computer monitors. On the humbuckers I get nothing. I turned the front panel up pretty high too.
Yes, I agree with this. I use 10ms release and that works fine. Others use up to 100ms. I agree with Cliff about using a fast attack. I use 1ms to 3ms typically with no issues and good clarity and low noise.@RafterRattler it is the 1ms release time. That is too fast.
