Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Darkglass’s Spot Series Noise Gate is for clearing extraneous noise from a bass rig. Set its threshold control to filter sounds below the chosen level, leaving the desired audio signal audible. Press the control to change between Soft mode, shown by a blue LED for softer gain reduction, and Hard mode, shown in red for more aggressive gating. It needs regulated 9V DC, center-negative power.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Filtering unwanted noise from a bass rig with an adjustable threshold control.
- Changing between softer reduction and a more aggressive gate operation from the pedal control.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Use with unregulated power supplies or voltages above regulated 9V DC, which can impair performance or damage the unit.
