It's probably not going to help.Get an ISP Decimator II
It seems the EVH 515OIII can only use a gate in the front of the amp.

Not so, I've owned 3 of them. Used an ISP in the loop, I never had issues. Even so, the ISP is lightyears better than the Smart Gate.It's probably not going to help.

McDonalds is one of the oldest hamburger makers in existence.MXR is one of the oldest, most reliable and best pedal producers in existence.
I'll stick with them.
he's just trying to help ya bud. the isp is WAY better and will do up front and the loop. ive tried that mxr gate on a 5150 and returned it the same day. every 5150 variant ive had has been a noisy mother.MXR is one of the oldest, most reliable and best pedal producers in existence.
I'll stick with them.
Yeah but HARDEE's is where it's at!McDonalds is one of the oldest hamburger makers in existence.
I may have to give them a try.he's just trying to help ya bud. the isp is WAY better and will do up front and the loop. ive tried that mxr gate on a 5150 and returned it the same day. every 5150 variant ive had has been a noisy mother.
If you're hocking the ISP DECIMATOR, how is the DECIMATOR Pro Rack G?he's just trying to help ya bud. the isp is WAY better and will do up front and the loop. ive tried that mxr gate on a 5150 and returned it the same day. every 5150 variant ive had has been a noisy mother.
Too bad the Smart Gate ain't worth a shit.MXR is one of the oldest, most reliable and best pedal producers in existence.

MXR are the best pedals on the market.Too bad they ain't worth a shit.
I have several MXR pedals, they are great pedals. Except the Smart Gate, that's the pedal I was referring to. It's nowhere near as good as the ISP Decimator, not even as good as an NS-2.MXR are the best pedals on the market.
I'll try other pedals. But 99 times out of 100 MXR has the top pedal for the effect in question.
Are their utility pedals/units (like noise gates) the top of the line? Perhaps, perhaps not... but their effects pedals beat out every other competetor. It's why almost every musician branded effect pedal is made by MXR or DUNLOP. Pro musicians don't put their names on junk, they only put their names on quality and superiority.

All endorse DUNLOP and MXR and lend their names to the products (sure, for a big fat check, but also their) superior build, sound and durability. Even Jimi Hendrix has pedals produced by these companies as well. I doubt his very valuable estate would have sold the rights to produce pedals with his name on them if they weren't the best-of-the-best.
DUNLOP and MXR are the best effects pedals in existence today. To deny these facts makes you a fool.
Is Zuul a supressor or gate?I built 3 Zuul clones and have a NS-2, and they have all worked great with the 5153 50w. My rack units like Rocktron and Fractal with gates have worked well also.
It is more of a suppressor. Many of the newer noise reduction pedals use the THAT Dynamics Processor IC chips.Is Zuul a supressor or gate?
Just FYI the ISP Decimator G-String has 4 inputs and didn't do anything to help me. The REVV is a gate and has worked wonders. For me though it is frustrating with trying to figure out why some people have overly loud 5150-III amps and some don't. I shouldn't hear noise when my clean channel is on but I do. It is nuts.
It’s the gate taken out of the Kerry king amp. Tons of companies are just following suit and copying it. Seems to be the case with most fortin stuff. 33 is the tc electronics, etc.Is Zuul a supressor or gate?

I think the REVV is based on the same THAT Dynamics Processor IC that the Zuul is based on. Many of the newer noise pedals are. It is basically a fast downward expander that rolls the volume up and down quickly dynamically.I wonder if I should try a suppressor? The gate just cuts the sound and maybe a suppressor is better for the 5150-III noise.
I will say I cant use the key input on any of my clones I built. It makes it way over sensitive and choppy. They work just fine in the loop with no key input. The one I use the most is actually a modified version where I added some extra range knobs to it so it can be dialed in better.I wonder if I should try a suppressor?

I have a Zuul mini. Key input works great. All my rigs are silent.I will say I cant use the key input on any of my clones I built. It makes it way over sensitive and choppy.
