I read the last rating of the Rocktron hush pedal and I disagree.
I remember when all I had for noise reduction was the boss
NF-1 noise gate.That was at least 12 years ago.Another great noise gate pedal is the boss NS-2 noise suppressor.
Both of these pedals I rate pretty good.If your getting so much noise that these pedals dont work you must have something wrong with your setup.

Sound Quality : 8
If you like overdrive it will suppress allot, however they
have thier limits.

Reliability : 8
I always have a back up for anything I use.

Customer Support : No Opinion

Overall Rating : 8
I believe it is a must for every guitar player

Exteremly easy to use.Consists of only two knobs - A/B, each one is dedicated to its own channel, making it possible to have two different settings for clean and distorted sounds.Being this easy to use, the manual can't tell you anything you haven't discovered the minute you plugged the effect in.

Sound Quality : 3
I'm using an Ibanez 77BFP with these effect pedals: CRYBABY>WHAMMY XP-100>CS-3 comp.>MT-2 Dist.>Ibanez PHASER>CE-5 Chorus>DD-5 Delay>Zoom 507 REVERB>HUSH.The reason I actually bought this pedal is beacause of the noisy CS-3 compressor which completely messed up my sound.Now, the hush pedal almost doesn't affect your sound except for a slight compression you might notice.The problem is I still haven't discovered what the hell this pedal is about. I've had a chance to use noise gates on Digitech's RP series and I even have a nice one on the XP-100 Wahmmy, the Hush doesn't make the noise disappear, it makes your whole sound disappear.It didn't make any difference at all,the damn CS-3 noise was still there no matter how much I tweaked the knob, and when I tweaked it too much it apparently reffered to my playing as noise and killed it completely.

Reliability : 9
With steel chasis this thing is hard as a brick.I don't tend to abuse my gear, but I'm sure that this thing can't be damaged.Not by humans , at least.

Customer Support : No Opinion

Overall Rating : 2
It doesn't matter what styles you play, this thing doesn't do the job.It cuts absolutely no noise and I was frustrated as hell when I discovred that(especially since it was bought abroad and therefore I couldn't return it). This pedal is actually the reason I'm going to trade all my pedals in favour of a nice rack effects processor.

Easy to get a good sound, and the manual was very informative.

Sound Quality : 10
I use it through a SKB pedal board with other pedals, and I use this pedal at the very end of the chain. And like duh, it's completely quiet because that is what is does, it makes things quiet. The only noise I get is from the amp, but that is just normal. It works great with most any effect.

Reliability : 10
It's made of this cast iron stuff, so it will most likelt not brake. Oh, and I never use a back up.

This pedal is a noise gate, and cuts the signal off of all the pedals, cables, and guitars in the chain between it and the amp. It has two gate settings A and B, so you can adjust the two channels to have to different cut off settings, and you can toggle between the two. It also has a bypass. The only thing weird about this is that the input in on the left, and output on the right. That is oposite of every other pedal created I think. But I recommend everyone getting a noise gate if you have noisy pedals, noisy pickups, and combinations of both. It works great.
