Default Are there any good dimmer switches?

I've heard that "cheap" dimmer switches will induce electromagnetic noise, but are there any that don't?

Not the answer you want but...yes, the expensive ones. Sorry, I had to. I'm sure someone will chime in with some brands. I chose to skip them and simply wired 3 tracks to 3 switches so I can dim the studio by turning off any of the tracks. Its not quite as elegant but it works.
