Super C Noise Reduction Unit review.

Rocktron Hush Super CPublished on 12/27/23 at 20:27
The Super C seems to be designed to specifically to be used in the effects loops of amplifiers and great for rack units effects loops.
It is dual mono and can be used to quiet my two Crate Power Blocks effects loop along side a BBE 482 Sonic Maximizer.
The only con about this device, is the fact that it has a single light indicator to tell you when it's about to close.

Older Hush / Rocktron 2CX's had 5 lights to visually aid you, but the Super C is just as good .
So you're going to have to depend on your ears to get this great device to work for you .

It's pretty much a super sensitive noise gate, that when properly set up, it will " shut off " the amp when you are not playing .

It's pretty much a super sensitive noise gate, that when properly set up, it will " shut off " the amp when you are not playing .

Here is how I set up my Super C ;
1. I get a program in my processor that has a long delay and reverb effects signal .
2. Hit a chord and adjust the the Threshold knob and the Release knob to not close or or open too soon .
3. I repeat the process, until both, the closing and releasing isn't too premature .

After, you tightened up the release and closing features, it will work just as hoped and planed.

After I was done, I have an expression pedal to losen the noise gate so well, that when I do tight chugging Pantera or Metallica type rhythms, it closes perfectly.
Or if I use clean choursly, Flanged out tones, that are reminiscent of Pink Floyd's " Run Like Hell", Eric Johnson's " Trademark " or the Police's "DA Doo Doo Doo, DA Da Da", it releases and closes perfectly, no matter if it's clean or distorted to the maximum.

And at rehearsal or gigs, the Super C is perfect to the point that I have no hum or hiss from my amps at all .

HUSH SUPER C
Reducer / gate for guitar or PA
Jack connectors
Rack 19 "

UTILIZATION

Infantile
you set the threshold and the gate and go!
Quick Manual

SOUND QUALITY

Used to reduce the breath due to my config pedal
initially:
Calibrate, clean / distortion on the amp
Plug the hush in the effects loop
-Gate and set the threshold so as to have a blast minimal (see no breath)
Switch-light / saturation and differing pickups of the guitar to check if a sound with less gain the gate does not turn into action (hence the pumping effect)
Compare the signal-to see if you do not lose momentum (in bypassing the hush)

and you'll end up with a buz and without his breath.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year
what I love: totally neutral treatment, the possibility to use it sound (stereo)
what I like least: the large transformer heavier than the hush in itself that walk in the rack ...

I tried the little gate behringer pedal ... the fun side to this machine ....
I also tried the pedal that is just a HUSH noise reduction and, not really a gate.

a little expensive for just reduce the breath but the product is of a certain quality and then do it again yes I did!

EDIT [20/12/10]

Following several years of use on different amp heads the only drawback that I found over time is a pumping effect when on clear sound. All the heads are not necessarily two separate effects loops and bypass switch with hush and thus bypass the full song can become quite problematic ...
