Attack (ms)
The attack time is the amount of time in milliseconds that it takes for Nectar to
bring its gain reduction back to zero once the signal has fallen below the
threshold.
Tip: Shorter attack times can tend to unnaturally pump on certain audio mater-
ial, where longer release times have a more subtle gradual feel to them.
Release (ms)
This is the amount of time in milliseconds that Nectar will wait after the incoming
signal has passed the defined threshold value, to apply the specified ratio of
gain to the signal. Shorter release times will engage the Gate module much
more quickly, while longer release times can result in slower more subtle pro-
cessing.
