Hush Super C

[Rob]

I'm looking to pick one up for my setup! Has anyone had any experience with one of these units?

[wahwah]

No Rob-is it just a noise gate?

I've heard alot about these units! They are supposed to be for high gain amps and since I use the 5150 combo, I thought I'd try it! Here is whats said about it on the ROCKTRON site.....Hush Super C
(Noise Reduction for guitar)



Got noise? Get HUSH. It�s that simple. Rocktron�s world famous HUSH products have been used by professionals for nearly two decades to wipe out noise from preamps, stomp boxes, multi-effects, even those great hand built amps and preamps, without compromising tone.

Forget about noise gates, Rocktron�s HUSH Super C noise reduction is the ultimate noise exterminator for guitar players. With a minimum amount of controls, the Super C provides the maximum in performance, eliminating hiss, hum, crackle, and other annoying noise problems from your setup.

The Super C is a stereo noise reduction system in which a single set of HUSH Threshold and Gate Threshold controls are used to manipulate both channels simultaneously. The Super C is equipped with an effect IN/OUT (or bypass), and an input sensitivity switch conveniently located on the unit�s front panel.

With a dynamic range of 105dB and 72dB of effective noise reduction, the Super C becomes a valuable tool in every guitar player�s rack. Rocktron�s HUSH Super C leaves your tone intact. Your search for complete tonal nirvana need not take a turn for the worse just because you add much needed noise reduction.

Unlike those tone-squashing noise gates, Rocktron�s V.I.R. (Variable Integrated Release) circuitry allows every note you play shine through and sustain naturally. No typical gate "chop-off" here. The V.I.R. will track every detail and nuance and provide the necessary noise reduction with ease and simplicity.

HUSH has been THE name in noise reduction for guitar players for years and is equally at home on stage and in the studio. Make the Super C your choice and use a noise reduction system designed by guitar players for guitar players.

yea I own one, it's what I use in my rig, no problems with it and it's pretty simple, you have to run it in the effects loop to quite the amp though, I however do not use it that way I'm using it to quite all the crap I have runnin ginto the amp ;-)

Ok cool! I have some pedals running in the front end and I have a DIGITECH 256XL and BBE running in the loop. Any suggestions?
