The Gate on the hardware.
Description
This value determines the threshold at which the Gate starts to work. High-
er values will let only the loudest parts of the signal through the Gate.
Use ATTACK to adjust how fast the Gate reacts to the incoming signal: the
more you dial it to the right, the slower it will react, resulting in a softer
transition between the gated and the not gated parts of the signal.
The HOLD parameter is used to determine how long the gated signal is
held; lower values will result in a more "choppy" effect.
The time the Gate will take to release the input signal after it rises above
the threshold.
MIX lets you adjust the amount of the effect in relation to the dry original
audio signal.
