Noise Gate

Noise Gates are used to mute a signal whenever the signal level drops below a specified threshold.

Attack Time determines how quickly the gate opens when signal is present.

 

Release Time determines how quickly the gate closes when signal is no longer present.

 

Threshold determines what input signal level will trigger the gate to open.

 

Identifier provides a custom label, when dialog box is minimized.

 

Bypass disables the Noise Gate without changing settings.

 

A meter & numeric display indicate the current amount of gain reduction being applied.

 

Right-clicking over certain settings will provide a menu of additional options. Control Dialog Boxes for Noise Gates can be minimized to create user control surfaces (see Customizing Component Objects).
