Darkglass Electronics Introduces Noise Gate Pedal
Darkglass Electronics has added a new pedal to its lineup with the Darkglass Noise Gate. Designed with simplicity in mind, the single-knob stompbox quickly cleans up your signal.
“Us bassists, who we adore to add high-gain machines in our signal, often face unwanted hums, hisses, and other sounds in our rig,” the company writes. “The Darkglass NSG comes as a response to these annoyances. Utilizing an adjustable threshold level to filter out sounds below a certain threshold, allowing for only the desired audio to be seized.”
The Threshold knob can also be pressed to switch between soft or hard mode, which toggles between softer gain reduction and more aggressive operation.
The Darkglass Electronics Noise Gate is available now for $199.99.
