Rocktron Launches the MicroHush

Rocktron Launches the MicroHush

Wipe out hiss and unwanted feedback while maintaining signal integrity.

England (June 9, 2016) -- Rocktron, leaders in guitar noise reduction, are proud to launch the MicroHush, the world-famous Hush noise reduction pedal in a micro chassis. It wipes out hiss, unwanted feedback, and pickup buzz while maintaining signal integrity and takes up less space on pedalboards.

Pedalboard space is always at a premium. The compact rugged chassis of the MicroHush has minimal impact on pedal rigs and maximum impact on guitar-related noise problems. It is a true bypass pedal so when it's turned off it is out of the signal path.

For the best results, simply plug in the MicroHush after distortion boxes, wahs, or noisy vintage effects and turn the threshold control knob until the noise goes away. Like all Rocktron Hush products, the MicroHush tracks the signal all the way to ensure no chopped-off notes or altered sustain and achieves up to 65dB of signal clean up. (Please note to eliminate 60-cycle ground loop hum, Rocktron recommend using the Buzz Kill AC Audio Isolation Transformer.)

The MicroHush specifications are:

  • Input Impedance: 470kΩ
  • Output Impedance: 1kΩ
  • Maximum Input: +5dBu
  • Maximum Output: +5dBu
  • Current Consumption: 15mA
  • Power Requirement: 9V DC OnTap Universal Power Supply (sold separately) is recommended. 2.1mm Jack Negative Tip/Positive Barrel
  • Dimensions: 3 5/8" x 2 1/8" x 2" (92mm x 54mm x 48mm)
  • Weight: 5.3oz (150g)

The MicroHush is the latest member of the renowned Hush family that includes the Hush Super C, Hush Pro, Hush Ultra, Hush the Pedal and Hush 2X. The new MicroHush is currently being used out on tour by Scott Middleton (Cancer Bats), Marc Rizzo (Soulfly, Cavalera Conspiracy) and The Used.
