Any idea on a nice NoiseGate pedal?

Hi guys, do you have any idea which noisegate pedal I should go for? My friend recommends me ISP Decimator, he is a guitarist though. Personally, I'm thinking about MXR M-135. What do you think about that? Or you have something to recommend? Your recommendations will be really appreciated

Thanks guys,

The ISP and the Boss NS-2 are the ones that get the best reviews. The MXR is not so great IMO.

Boss NS-2 gets good wraps, but the Decimator is as good if not better. Never heard of the MXR until just now. Rocktron still make the "Hush" I think, but it's kinda annoyingly large for such a utilitarian pedal.

I like the loop function on the NS-2 which the other pedals don't have.
If basically triggers the gate before the pedals but applies it afterward.

+1 for the decimator
