Hey guys, how many of you are using the built in noise gate vs. a gate block on your high gain patches? Any pros/cons of doing one over the other?
I don't use the global gate at all. I don't like the way that the input impedance colours my tone, so i use a gate block after the drive block, like guitarsrule.
i think that impedance setting is active whether you "use" the Input Gate or not...I don't like the way that the input impedance colours my tone

A different approach to keeping the noise low: try a Vol block with the volume parameter tied to the Envelope controller. As long as you don't hit the strings, the (input) signal is off.
I like using this version for rock,bluesy stuff,works a treat
Isnt that exactly what a gate does?
You could just use the gate then...

just remember, when it comes to noise and noise gates, if your "noise" is just as loud as the signal you want to keep, a gate isn't the solution.
I did not know that. Thanks for the heads up Chris. Do you have a preferred impedance setting, or is there a way to determine the optimum settings for my pickups?
