Rob3TR Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 On the distortion channel when i stop a note or chord theres a horrible hissing sound...anyone else experienced this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 what sort of settings are you using?using very high gain settings will introduce noise, like the fuzz settings or metal style ones, if you are running the gain flat out that could be one sourceanother would be the compressor, how do you have that set (if you use it) using high settings on that will add some noise to the signal (amplified by using a distortion patch)does the noise dissappear when you roll off the volume completely?David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monk Rocker Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 I have the bass version of that unit and there is a wee noise reduction control on the back where all the jacks are..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott! Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Try backing off/speeding up the release on the compressor a little bit, if you can. David sounds right, it's probably the compressor "breathing" as it backs off after you stop the note. There's a great article on Harmony Central about how compressors work that explains the whole attack & release thing really well in the Effects Explained section.

The Sloth Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Theres a noise gate on the me-50 at the top beside the compressor, try playing around with that, also it could be that you do have the noise gate set but what your hearing is the noise just before the gate closes.
