I’ve owned my AH for over a year and could never really get rid of the loudish hissing noise. Tried the sensitivity settings, different cables, synths, and mixers.
Is there a known bug like that?
It’s a distortion unit and the gain is massive so noise is unavoidable. Common practise is to use a noise gate on silent parts if the noise is not part of the aesthetics. The gate included in Ableton works great.

I love it😊it means it has so much character, even when it’s not doing anything, you can’t really get it to totally shut up😎

I don’t get any noise when using Clean Boost or Saturation… maybe a tiny bit of air & with the other modes the “air” gets a little louder. The lo pass filter helps with this.
Have you ever used a distortion unit before? I think the AH is quiet for a distortion unit.
But listen to Olle, if you want distortion, but want to reduce noise look up noise gate.

Never knew that gonna use my other distortion units on the live noise gate. Thanks.
Hello,
Today I was using my heat and when I plugged the headphones I realized there is a pretty audible hiss with nothing plugged in on the heat. If anyone could check on overbridge his levels on the output with nothing plugged in it would be greatly appreciated . I’ll post a screenshot with all my settings, the meters peak at around -68 on clean boost .
