                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[I was listening to some Satriani the other day, and it sounded like he was playing with really high gain. The thing is, every time I crank the gain on my amp (Vox AD30, if it matters), all the notes/power chords seem to bleed into one, barely distinguishable mess. I'm sure part of my problem is that I'm not too careful about muting a string after playing it, but I think there's more to it then that. <br><br>Any ideas on how I can get a less noisy sound?<br><br>EDIT: What are the odds that <a href="https://www.guitarnoise.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=31030">this</a> thread would be posted just before I did this one?<br><br>Also, my amp does have a noise gate feature, though it doesn't seem to make much difference for high gain settings. Neither does the built-in compressor. I'd still love to hear suggestions/opinions.]]></content:encoded>
