Pigtronix Gatekeeper Micro Noise Gate Pedal

Kill Noise Without Killing Tone

In many ways, the Pigtronix Gatekeeper Micro is a typical noise gate. It has the usual Threshold and Release controls, so it’s easy to use. Under the hood, however, this pedal ups the ante with JFET circuitry and the kind of headroom and nimble performance that you’ll normally find in rackmount noise gates. The Gatekeeper Micro's lightning-fast response time eliminates hum, hiss, and buzz while preserving the authority of your attack. Even if your guitar is loaded with noisy pickups, the Gatekeeper Micro can withstand the demands of blistering fast high-gain metal. So crank it up — with the Gatekeeper Micro in your rig, 60-cycle hum and white noise won't stand a chance.

The easy way to conquer a noisy guitar rig

Eliminating unwanted noise from your rig is easy with the Gatekeeper Micro. A wide-range Threshold control interacts with the pedal's ample headroom, exhibiting smooth transient response and fast-paced time constants. The Release knob controls how quickly the gate slams closed, cutting out any undesirable sounds the second you stop playing. And with 100% attenuation, nothing gets through. 

Features:

• JFET circuitry delivers headroom and performance akin to rackmount noise gates
• Lightning-fast response time eliminates hum, hiss, and buzz, while preserving the authority of your attack
• Variable release time lets you dial out undesirable sounds the second you stop playing
• Works both directly after your guitar or in your amp's effects loop
• 100% attenuation — when the gate clamps down, nothing gets through
• True bypass switching preserves your tone
