For live aplications, nothing beats having a noise gate on each input. To simplify things, I'd group the drum ones becuse if you hit any one of them it will probably set off the others as well... and if not, the threshold would most likely be too high for when you wanted to play softly. By group them, I mean a mixer. Specifically, I use RDL mixers. They make one for just about every function you can think of, and oll of them are only as big as two matchbooks put side by side. http://www.rdlnet.com/a_mix.htm HOWEVER, I am NOT happy with their noise gate. http://www.rdlnet.com/stgla1.htm I could have had it wired wrong, but I doubt it. I ripped it out of my system and haven't gotten around to putting it back in and seeing what the problem really was though, so you might want to check it out. (By the way, folks, this RDL stuff is really cool, though a bit tweaky. And Pricy. But you can make your own, customized gient circut bord and have something quite small and high quality. They even share the same power supply and stick together so in the end may be you have a high quality mixer with noise gates, mic/line transformation and mixing, switching, bla bla bla, customized EXACTLY to your system but all the size of a paperback book or two. On only one or two power supplies.) Anyway, the boss stomp box noise gate is actually good, but pricy... especially if you don't really nead it's other main feature, which is the ability to power 6 other boss-type pedals. If anyone knows other, better noise gate solutions I'd love to hear them too.
