http://www.ToneFactor.com - ISP Decimator Noise Reduction Pedal.
The Decimator Uses Time Vector Processing the latest in noise reduction technology to provide 60dB of noise reduction, instant response to staccato notes, and ripple-free control of sustained notes.
Latest generation of noise reduction technology 60dB of noise reduction
Time Vector processing
Transparent operation
Will not affect guitar tone
Dynamically tracks the input signal
Patent Pending NR technology
Polished chrome chassis
The Decimator guitar pedal offers a new approach to Noise Reduction processing with a high level of performance. Most noise suppression systems suffer from one major problem inherent in their design: The system cannot be immediately responsive to very short-term staccato notes. The typical downward expander sound reduction system suffers from a dead zone in the release response characteristic that causes a compromise in tracking both fast decaying notes and long sustained notes. The Decimator pedal’s design offers a novel approach to tracking the envelope of the input signal called Time Vector Processing.
Due to this novel approach in controlling the expander, the Decimator system will instantly respond to short staccato notes and, at the same time, will provide a very slow ripple free control of long sustained notes. The Decimator noise suppression system is very transparent delivering high performance.
The Decimator pedal by ISP Technologies is extremely easy to use; simply insert the Decimator at the end of your chain of existing pedals or, insert the Decimator Pedal in the effects loop of your amplifier to clean up the noise present at the amplifier input as well as the noise in the amplifiers pre-amp section. Packaged in a rugged, beautifully polished smooth chrome chassis, the Decimator pedal offers reliability, performance and beauty in one compact pedal.

in a way I didn’t …
in a way I didn’t think it would’ve made a difference but it did. I put it in the effects loop and left it on all the time so AC power is a must. Not a 9v battery cuz that thing is gonna die after your gig no doubt. Just try out all possibilities. And remember having tons of gain can sacrifice tonal clarity.

Very cool, so it’s …
Very cool, so it’s basically a Gate right? This would obviously go at the end of your chain I’m guessing. Sometimes a Gate can make overdrive and distortion sound a bit too metal but this doesn’t for some odd reason, I mean I’m sure you can get that sound if you wanted it. Thanks, is this the same as the G-String?

nice, I’ve been thinking about getting this one recently

If you ever respond …
If you ever respond to your videos do you think you could tell me if its possible to put this in an fx loop?
I’m thinking since I use mostly preamp distortion (metal head) that the preamp tubes is where most of my hum comes from. So is it possible?

The best, ever!

damn that tube zone …
that tube zone soudns killer!

Actually, I thnk the Decimator G Sring is the one that’s made for using with an effects loop. You should try that one.

DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
June 16th, 2009
Yeah dude, you can …
Yeah dude, you can totally run this through the effects loop. It will kill all the noise man!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Trust me. I’ve had one for years now. YOu can either run it in the effects loop or run it as a pedal. Try both ways if you have one, or when you get one. well worth it dude!

TO EVERYONE …
TO EVERYONE THINKING ABOUT GETTING THIS PEDAL! STOP THINK AND GET IT ALREADY! THE BEST OUT THERE TRUST ME. Here’s a tip: Run it at the end of your chain or after the noisiest pedal. Try that out first. If you put it after a delay it may cut off the feedback time. Next try it in the FX loop. Worked better in the effects loop for me. I keep it on all the time.

Yea, I use the ISP …
Yea, I use the ISP Decimator in the following chain and it works great!
1) Pitchblack tuner
EHX Holy Grail +
2) Medicine Bawl Wah
3) Fulltone Deja Vibe
4) Powerscreamer Overdrive
5) Milkshake chorus (need to replace)
6) ISP decimator
7) MXR Carbon Copy Delay
Love this pedal, especially with OD and Wah on…Keeps everything Very quiet…and doesn’t suck your tone out.

nice vid!! i will definately get this one now! =)

Wouldn’t you agree …
Wouldn’t you agree that this is probably one, if not, the best noise gates ever made. No effect on tone. Increased sustain. Cleans up tone. ISP DECIMATOR ALL THE WAY!

i have a problem. I …
i have a problem. I put the pedal after my distortion, but when i turn the gain up on my metal muff, the decimator can’t handle it. Even when i add a boost pedal, it can’t handle it. What should i do
June 16th, 2009
can you give me a …
can you give me a full description of your setup ( it’ll help narrow down the problem). For E.G. Metal muff Gain at 3 o clock : Fender Strat : Peavey Valve King: blah blah blah
June 16th, 2009
the metal muff gain …
the metal muff gain is usually at 3 oclock, im playing through a spider 2 on the red clean channel, using an ibanez rg4exfm1. Let me know if you need anything else
June 16th, 2009
what is your ISP …
what is your ISP set at? Anything pass 12 o clock is pretty suckish zone. I mean it’s cool if you’re just hard riffing and stuff but when you solo and get very dynamic with your picking.
June 16th, 2009
its usually set at …
its usually set at 35 for a couple of reasons. One is that for cleans, it won’t take away any tone. The other is that i don’t use it for distortion, because like u said, the furthest i can bring it to is 30/12 oclock without losing tone, but that doesn’t get rid of the noise. The wierd thing is that the decimator works beautifully with my amps distortion, no matter how much gain i add to it.
June 16th, 2009
sounds crazy man. …
sounds crazy man. Try playing around with the EQ and most especially the Gain knob on the pedal. Gain is a B***H because when you finally get the desired amount that you like you’re gonna run into problems like hissing and such… Are you only running one pedal? (just the metal muff) Many things can affect this. Pedal noise, improper powering of the pedal, dirty power, ground loop probs, your pickups, many things.
June 16th, 2009
certainly is crazy. …
certainly is crazy. It works fine using lower gain, but i guess too much is just too much. All seems well with the pedalboard, so all the trouble leads me to believe that the amp is the problem. I’ll be switching to dimarzio pickups soon, so that should take away some hum. But im also getting a new amp soon anyways so I shouldn’t worry so much. By the way, do you think the decimator sounds better in the effects loop than in front?
