Well I've had this thing for a while but i noticed that even when i get it tweaked at just the level where the noise on my amp stops i get very low sustained notes...Is there any way to fix this?

kylendm said:Yeah it's true, we don't really need all that gain.
It helped lowering it a bit.
Still wish i could get a bit more sustain.

I have a bunch of OD pedals, a wah and a GCX in front of my amp with the ISP set between -34 and -40 and I have no problems with sutain except on teh cleanest of low gain tones...but then I don't need the ISP for those!
I've heard this opinion and the exact opposite opinion from others. It really depends on the person and the rig as to which one is garbage or not. I plan on getting a Decimator G-String as well for live playing. I know I can use my volume control, and I'm a minimalist with gain as well (I use enough to get a bit of punch in my sound with the preamp, then let the power amp saturate to give that extra grit and grind)., but sometimes you just need a gate for when you're in closer quarters with your amp or using a module like the Ultra XL that's quite noisy.maximus1 said:what you need to do is ditch the isp and get a ns-2. set the threshold all the way to the right and the decay all the way to the left. this is the only pedal i ve tried that works. it cuts the squeally's right out whereas the isp kills your tone by the time you get it set to cut out feedback. i had the knob set around 1-2 o clock on the isp so i could play stop start riffs and all it did was kill the tone, no sustain or life was left in my rig... isp decimater=junk
