Iron Curtain : Good stuff

I bought the pedal to fight noise coming from Volume and Gain/Drive knobs on the distortion and overdrive pedals I am using, as well as to kill some of the hum going to the amp from the guitar single coils.

The pedal is doing its job well for the above stated, the noise from distortion is killed off promptly.

In some regards, it is working even too well, because no matter where I put it in the chain, it is killing the effect of the tremolo and delay pedals, so I am forced to use those effects without a noise gate - not the most terrible thing. Another thing that could be a little more nuanced/sensitive is the Decay knob, which could allow the sound to last longer without the accompanying noise in the background.
