All the same features as the original Zuul® but in mini-form factor!
The mini Zuul®'s threshold knob also controls the dynamics of the gate circuit. Perfect for guitar, bass or any signal source because of the high quality studio specifications.
Use in front of an amplifier or in a series effects loop. Dual colour LED for visual feedback gating action: Green = Open, Orange = Closed, Off = Bypass.
The KEY input signal can be directly from your guitar (r.e. split from Roach or Spliff) or other signal source which lets you go from clean to high gain without changing the Threshold knob. This powerful feature lets you control the gate with a different signal than what flows through the input/output jacks of the ZUUL®. Side switch (internal jumper on early versions) to change the threshold range to compensate for different input signal levels. Industry standard true bypass switching.
Gate: Adjusts how much level is required to open the noise gate and allow a signal to pass through.

Tight tight tight
I’ve gone through pedal, after pedal that I think is the best one on my board. New winner, set correctly this doesn’t choke my tone, it adds clarity. The tight punches of silence it adds to my playing makes the whole band sound tighter. Fits great on my crowded board. Love this pedal. The only thing I’ve noticed is if you roll back your volume for quiet parts you need to turn the pedal off for the notes to ring out. Rolling back the volume brings the noise level down anyway, so I find it a non issue. Can’t recommend this pedal enough.

ZUUL mini
I have the Zuul + and the Zuul mini. Fortin make the best noise gates. I just bought another mini for a friend.

Mini ZUUL
Amazing gate , be smart and get the Roch, your going to need it. made like a tank, well done, fortin amplification,my mesa boogie mark vii sounds insane 🤘
We are proud that the Zuul will not color the tone of your amp / signal chain. However, the Zuul will buffer the signal so if you are not already running a buffer you may feel like the Zuul inserts "top end" into your tone.
The Zuul is not adding this to your tone, it is simply restoring what is already there, giving you an actual representation of the tone coming from your instrument!
Is the Mini the same as the regular?
The only difference is the physical size of the pedal.
What does the key do?
Placing a gate after your gain stages can prove to be annoying as the gate is looking at the effected signal to try to work out when to open and/or close.
They Key In/Thru listens to what your instrument is doing only (as it is effectively first in the chain), and then opens and closes the gate according to your instrument and not any the floor noise, artifacts etc coming from your gain stages.
When the Key is used and triggered by your instrument, the gate itself is set after your gain stages and before any delay/reverb effects - this way you have complete control of your gate and it will not affect your other effects.
