I have had some questions recently about folks having noise/hum issues using guitar VST/plugins. I feel your pain. The good news is, REAPER has a pretty spiff noise gate built in called REAGATE. Most guitar VST plugins have their own noise gate as well. The amplitude noise gate is a tad less configurable than the reaper gate, and learning to use the REAPER gate on guitar will hopefully help you be able to use it on other types of tracks. Here is a cool vid describing how to use the built in REAPER noise gate. Enjoy!!

Good info. I do not like the noise gate in amplitube, it feels to me like I have to choose between sustain or noise, and can never get it just right. I have read good things about the stock fx in reaper, but haven't messed with them enough. I am gonna give this a shot it is definitely waaaaaaaay more adjustable.

BINGO!!! You should not have to give up sustain for noise suppression. I stack two gates in the chain in OVERLOUD in addition to the main gate in order to stagger them and have each working on a different noise level so I can keep some sustain. THe pedal noise gates in overloud are also Limiters/Expanders so you can tweak them to adjust the signal itself so it needs less gate. Getting WADS of gain and not having CRAZY noise is an ART smile.gif WHen using AMPLITUDE I always had to use Gates/compressors/expanders external to AMPLITUDE which increased CPU drain quite a bit on each guitar channel. Even AMPLITUDE METAL has the same issue.
