ISP Technologies Unveils New Deci-Mate Mini-Pedal
The new design is a downsized version of ISP's popular Decimator noise suppressor circuit.

ISP Technologies has introduced the new Deci-Mate, a downsized version of its popular Decimator noise suppressor circuit that is housed in a small, micro-pedal package.
The Deci-Mate promises new tracking improvements over existing Decimators, with an adaptive response that can cope with staccato playing and sustained notes.
A single threshold knob controls the level of noise reduction, which, according to ISP, is all that is required—its algorithm aims to do away with any release control.
Other features include:
• True Bypass design
• New DECIMATOR X Technology uses Time Vector Integration. Adaptive release provides smoothest release response possible
• Adaptive release tracks both staccato and long sustained notes
