USE EXAMPLE:
1. Set THRESHOLD to –45 dB.
2. Adjust the TARGET fader to fix the optimal average level of the signal (e.g. –20 dB).
3. Set the intervention TIME to 60 seconds.
4. Set RATIO (e.g. 2:1).
NOISE GATE
NOISE GATE
The noise gate automatically reduces an audio input level when its signal is below the
defined threshold (or absent).
It allows to either mute a channel when no signal is detected at its input or open it when
necessary.
To access the noise gate parameters (of a single input), click EDIT on the respective
channel and select the DSP window.
THRESHOLD: adjusts the level below which the noise gate attenuates a signal.
GATE RANGE: adjusts the signal reduction when its level is below the threshold.
Attack: adjusts the noise gate attack time.
Release: adjusts the noise gate release time.
Enable: toggles the noise gate (keep it on when using).
USE EXAMPLE:
1. Set a low THRESHOLD (e.g. –50 dB) to ensure the immediate channel opening
even with signals having a low amplitude (but higher than the background noise).
2. Adjust the GATE RANGE value according to your needs
(for instance, a –80 dB setting entails the audio input muting when its signal does not
reach the chosen threshold).
3. Set both the ATTACK time (i.e. 1 ms) and the RELEASE time (i.e. 100 ms).
