Listening on my computer speakers the noise was pretty low level. Like I said above, when you put instruments into the mix that will be buried well below the threshold of the listener being able to hear it.

HOWEVER, it is there and therefore is cumulative to the entire final mix levels.... so, to get a "cleaner" vocal mix, use the volume riding envelope or in a DAW selectively AUDIO/EDIT/MUTE the empty space and it's gone. It takes about 5 minutes or less to edit a track in this manner.

In most cases, I use this on the majority of my vocal tracks and guitar tracks to get rid of the noise and the amp hiss or hum from the gain level I use on the distorted guitar parts. It's simply a part of cleaning up the tracks.
