Analog Rack Noise Gate holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.0.

Written reviews complicate that: 27% of PREAMP LIVE's written reviews are positive against 20% of Analog Rack Noise Gate's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PREAMP LIVE ships an update weekly, Analog Rack Noise Gate every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
