High gain Hardcore/metal Noise gate (Decimator G String style)

I think if the Kemper had a Decimator G String style noise gate, it would really help with catering to a niche metal and hardcore market and would really improve my workflow. The existing noise gate isnt as fast and aggressive as what the metal producers and guitarists need. To whoever reads this, thankyou for your time

Have you tried the decimator directly in the Kemper fx loop?

I wonder if Fred agrees.

+1 on that. For an upcoming tour I'll have to use my old Boss Noise Supressor in front of the Kemper!

I don't care which noisegate. Just fix the one currently in the KPA - it is a bit sucky

+11 an improved "non-sucky" noise gate is a must have.

i also agree that the noise gate needs improvement. it was one of the reasons (although a less important one) why i ended up returning my unit

here's what i mean with better:

additional parameters: "attack", "release" and "ratio" would help to be able to adjust the gate better in combination with high-gain amps

routable gate as an effect pedal: having a noise gate before the amp is great for avoiding unwanted feedback and reducing unwanted noise. especially if using a compressor or boost pedal in front of a high-gain amp. a second gate at the end of the signal chain with less sensitivity helps to get rid of the noise coming from running a boost pedal into a high-gain amp.
