0 dB offers no gain reduction on your lead voice at all. Settings of -30 to Off
effectively mute your voice when the Gate is on.

Use the Harm(ony) Atten(uation)
the Harmony and Doubling voices when the Gate closes. They have a sepa-
rate attenuation setting to reduce chatter caused by instrument sounds en-
tering the mic and being harmonized when you aren't singing. The factory
default attenuation amount of -10 dB should work well in many situations,
but you can further reduce the level if you still hear harmonized instrumen-
tal chattering when you stop singing.
▪
Use the Threshold
minimum singing level you need to reach in order for the Gate to open and
let your voice sound. The factory default setting of -40 dB is very sensitive
to allow a wide range of singing levels but it may also allow more nearby
instrumental sounds through when you are not singing. In this case, further
adjustment from -39 dB and upward may be needed.
