Noise Gate on the R-18 is an "essential feature for high-gain players" — it not only solves the inevitable background noise issue associated with high-gain, but also maintains the natural tone. Different Gain Effect Low Gain (9-12 o'clock knob position): Mild distortion for Riffs. High Gain (1-3 o'clock knob position): Heavy distortion with more pronounced grit. Distinguish between Gain and "Volume": Gain controls the "distortion level", while Volume adjusts the "final output volume". Avoid background noise overload caused by confusing the two (high Gain + high Volume) — which can be suppressed by the R-18's built-in Noise Gate. Power Amp Output Mode Used as a pure preamp , the R-18 handles "preamp distortion and tone shaping", while the amplifier only undertakes the "signal amplification" function. Pre Amp Mode Functionally: Used as a distortion pedal and does not responsible for the final power amplification of the signal. Connection: Must be connected to the Input of a guitar amplifier. Cab Sim Effect Cab Sim (Cabinet Simulation Mode): Equipped with a "virtual cabinet", allowing direct connection to full-range devices without the need for a guitar amplifier. It can be directly connected to devices without "cabinet amplification" function, such as PA systems, recording audio interfaces, monitor headphones, and full-range speakers, eliminating the need for an additional cabinet. High Gain for Electric Guitar Unique Features It comes with 4x12 cabinet simulation and three different output modes. Whether you need to connect to an amplifier for home practice, use it for band rehearsals, or directly connect to a PA system for professional performances, it can easily switch output modes to adapt to various scenarios. It’s suitable for both professional musicians and beginner guitarists! Noise gate: Suppresses background noise caused by high gain. FAT BOOST: Enhances the saturation of mid and low frequencies.

Review: Sound, durability, easy to use. Quality item - Wow!!! Awesome. This is a game changer. Great quality. Great tones, very little noise, sounds great in front or in the effects loop. Works well with other pedals, pedal board and easy to use. I own many JOYO pedals and products.
Review: Pretty sweet! - Sounds great regardless. The price point makes it that much better. My favorite way of using it is a preamp into a power amp effects loop. The gate makes a huge difference. The one caveat is that it is amazing with active pickups for different metal genres, but the gate interferes with my SG. I try to use the guitars volume knobs to dial in output levels and the gate catches a lot of the signal and kills the sound or let's in too much and everything gets really noisy. In short for metal, it will be great. Anything more nuanced provide challenges.

Sounds great regardless. The price point makes it that much better. My favorite way of using it is a preamp into a power amp effects loop. The gate makes a huge difference. The one caveat is that it is amazing with active pickups for different metal genres, but the gate interferes with my SG. I try to use the guitars volume knobs to dial in output levels and the gate catches a lot of the signal and kills the sound or let's in too much and everything gets really noisy. In short for metal, it will be great. Anything more nuanced provide challenges.

It is cheap sounding, strong build quality, but not effective enough to keep. Experienced extreme volume drop. Tones out of it were mid. Returned quickly.
