I have an INCREDIBLY loud amp (Peavey Triple XXX), and I really needed a hush processor to eliminate bad feedback, yet retain the good kind (i.e. Like live bands using feedback to make an entrance, not annoy the audience). I had decided on Rocktron because of their reliability in the past. Best decision I made for effects by far. Also, when I fed it through my effects loop, I turned the 'hush' dial to about 12 o' clock and it really brought out the heavy tone of my amp without thinning it at all. Get this effects processor.

I bought one of these because I needed a noise gate and I heard that this one was "the best" At this point it's siting in my rack, not connected. When I first got it I spent HOURS trying to dial it in just right. When I turned the Gate Threshold past half way it sucked all of my gain out of the signal and I was left with a thin, annoying tone. I'll be selling this and buying The Decimator from ISP.

This piece is truly unique. In one of the above mentioned comments, Someone said that their feedback wasn't ated or volume. But that's clearly not what it's for. It reduces hiss caused by electrical current / pre-amperage. If you want listeners to get better quality out of the sound you produce, then you will need a noise reduction system. but this does not kill feedback. feedback comes from to high volumes in too small spaces. some people just don't understand how to properly setup their gear.

i bought this in hopes that it would efficantly get rid of feed back without killing my tone, and i have to say it is not worth the money that i spent on it. i only own two noise reduction units this and the boss noise supressor, while im not very happy with with the boss version i still think thats it is better than the roctron. the rocktron unit really didnt help get rid of feedback at high volumes at all unless i turned the controls way up even then there would be feedback for a couple of seconds until the unit actually reacted and killed the signal. another complaint is that this unit killed my amps reverb completley. overall, its not worth the money

I've purchased the Hush C on two occasions ('03,'08) and I can honestly say that it is one of the single most important pieces in my rig. Technically it's only a "noise gate", but somehow it actually ADDS to your tone! I think a lot of people out there have never really been able to hear what their amps sound like without all of the hiss and hum and if that's the case you should grab one of these right now. You'll have way more "control" of your rig and at the end of the day you'll be able to hear a lot of subtle little things that all of the hiss and hum have been covering up since day one.
