You know the Sidstation? Well, for most, that's unacceptable. The MD is 
acceptable, but noisier than, let's say, the Access Virus.

I've mailed them about it... they said it's mainly because the MD's 
outputs are so hot, which is indeed true, but imo there's still a 
difference between my Virus and MD. If it might make you feel "better", 
I can say that you definitely don't need a gate... it's not "that" noisy.

Bye,
