Sonitus fx: Gate
Figure 405. Sonitus fx: Gate
fx:gate is a dynamic gate with side-chain filtering and lookahead. The fx:gate plug-in has wide
variety of uses. It can funcion as a noise gate, which quite simply gates (or blocks) signals whose
amplitude lies below a certain threshold, and lets other signals through. This is useful for eliminating
background noises, such as hiss or hum, during periods of silence in a recording or performance.
In addition, it also features a tuneable peak Punch mode that makes it possible to add transient
punch to frequencies lacking in individual drum sounds, adding greater definition and presence to
the gated signal. Using the variable high pass and low pass side chain filters enables you to perform
"frequency conscious" gating. The gate can also be switched from Gating to Ducking mode for
removal of clicks and pops.
