The Hades Gate
We are offering two different versions so that you can choose which will suit you best.
Hades Gate $199USD
Simple to use noise gate that when placed in your effects loop can offer total silence between notes.
Hades Ultra Gate $299USD
The Hades Ultra Gate features two independent gates in one that are always on (No Footswitch). They have independent controls so that you can tailor the threshold to be positioned literally anywhere in your signal chain! You could even use it for two separate guitarists.
The Ultra Gate is larger than the single gate, but smaller than two individual gates and features top mounted jacks to save pedalboard space. Perfect for a very simple rig with insane gain levels.
Why multiple gates?
Running dual gates can make a big difference. One as the very first pedal in the chain keeps the noise your pickups are picking up from causing feedback. The one in the loop keeps the preamp noise from making it to the power amp.
This also lets you be more conservative on the threshold settings and gives you a better balance between zero noise and picking articulation.
Threshold
This sets the amount of signal that opens and closes the gate. Higher settings will close more aggressively and keep the noise from higher gain levels under control.
Release
*Located Internally. This controls how the gate reacts and should not be adjusted unless you're comfortable in getting it back to the setting it was at. Each one is set up to be ideal.
Gain
*Located internally. Thanks to the clever design of this circuit, you can actually achieve moderate boost levels and an increase in clarity.
The Hades Gate features a stable bi-polar power supply that keeps it from breaking up into clipping as well as provides additional clarity. DO NOT run more than 9volts into the Hades or you will damage it. The internal power supply gives you better quality than any amount of voltage will give you.
