Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Noise Gate Pedal at 5.0 against SynthStamp's 4.4. Noise Gate Pedal also leads on price ($0.99 vs $4.99). SynthStamp's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (12 vs 1). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
