Description
Got noise? Get the world’s foremost noise
reduction for guitar players, Rocktron’s HUSH®. The HUSH pedal needs no
introduction, as it is easily the standard in most touring rigs
worldwide since 1984.
If you aren’t using the HUSH, you aren’t using real noise
reduction for guitar. When used properly, the HUSH will wipe out hiss,
unwanted feedback and pickup buzz. The HUSH pedal delivers 65dB of
signal cleanup, while your music signal integrity remains unaffected. In
other words, get rid of the noise without altering your tone!
Guitar Player Magazine wrote that the "HUSH Pedal will work
for all guitar-related noise problems: it’s perfect" and "its potent
noise-killing abilities will be fully appreciated."
Simply plug the HUSH in AFTER distortion boxes, wah-wahs,
noisy vintage effects, or other noisy units and turn the Threshold knob
until the noise goes away. It’s that easy! You will not find a more
effective noise reduction. Unlike noise "gates" that chop off the end
of your notes, or ruin your sustain, HUSH the Pedal is actually a form
of single-ended noise reduction that tracks your signal all the way and
pushes the noise floor below the point where your ear can hear the
noise. It does not hurt your sustain or chop off the end of your notes.
Simply use the Threshold knob to smooth out your signal while wiping
out noise. This is the best friend a guitar player could have!
Now hold on, partner.
You must pay attention
to the proper setup, with the HUSH pedal going AFTER your noisy stomp
boxes. The HUSH is not designed to take the input directly from your
guitar WITHOUT some processing happening between the guitar and the HUSH
noise reduction. When setup correctly, with your signal going from your
preamp and effects, or from your distortion and effects, into the HUSH,
you WILL be amazed at how it will clean up the excess noise, including
pickup buzz! The HUSH can also be used in your amplifier’s effects loop.
However, if you are running multiple effects through this loop, the
HUSH should always be the last dynamic device in the signal chain, but
before digital delays or reverbs.
The HUSH pedal incorporates
the latest
version of the HUSH discreet circuitry which also includes Rocktron’s
patented Variable Integrated Release (V.I.R.) technology. V.I.R.
technology utilizes a low-noise VCA with precision detector circuits to
achieve the smoothest and most transparent noise reduction possible.
