To supress or not to supress.That is the question?

[FASTFISTS]

Wondering how many of you use a noise supressers during tracking? :hotjump:

I use noise reduction....Hush Systems the pedal. (2 channel)

I use the Isp Decimator when tracking real hi gain type stuff, it's the best gate i've ever had. Liked it over the mxr smartgate, boss ns-2, and Rocktron hush. Its totally transparent, and really quiets everything down... very impressive.

I don't use any during tracking. I usually cut out all the parts where the guitar is meant to be 'silent'.

I'll go with that. Don't want to eat your tone if you can help it

i've never found a pre-tracking way to do this, that didn't effect my tone in a bad way...i usually record guitars in 4 or 8 measure sections, so each part gets the manual noise reduction once i get a good take (the noise reduction is also a way of leaving myelf a 'seal of approval' reminder...if i see any piece that got no noise reduction, it's an easy indicator that the piece needs to sound better :Spin: )
