Hey all,
I've got a friend who is asking about building a specific pedal set-up for him, and I was curious to hear from everyone here if what he's asking is feasible. He's wanting a 2-in-1 pedal with a Tube Screamer stacking into a Rat, but with an added noise gate in there somewhere to try and cut down on some of the inevitable noise that thing will make.
The 2-in-1 part I have an understanding of, but I'm not really sure how to add a noise gate to something. I'm still in the "making pedals from a pre-existing PCB" stage of my comfortability and knowledge, so is adding a gate to an already made PCB doable? Or is that something that can really only be done if you're making your own circuit?
