Hack
Fortin is probably innocent. But in my quest for the perfect noise gate, I recently purchased a highwind phalanx, and therefore was able to remove the spliff from my pedalboard. I don't know if the buffer was boosting noise or what, but i was trying to dial in the threshold, and wasn't really happy with anything. So I just turned the whole thing off to compare.
The amp I thought was extremely noisy wasn't. So I could go down the line and see if it were the zuul or the spliff not cooperating with my setup, though both worked with my previous amp, but instead, i removed everything but the volume pedal in front and delay in loop.
Pretty fucking nice. I had to raise the preamp gain to accommodate not having any external boost, but the amp sounds full and gorgeous. I just need to do some heavy rhythm work to see if I can pull that shit off without a gate and boost. But so far at 102 decibels, I was able to keep the amp from screaming at me. Later, I will try to blow the glass out of the neighbors windows.
The good news is, if this works, my pedalboard is going to be small as fuck.
