GATE / EXPANDER
GTE: Simply double click the GTE button to turn the gate on/off. Greyed out is off,
while blue is on.
THRESHOLD (dB): The THRESHOLD of the GATE determines is the minimum level
of the input signal that will open the GATE. Signals below the THRESHOLD are
reduced in gain by an amount equal to the RATIO (see below). Set to higher values
for a more aggressive gating effect.
RATIO: Determines how much gain reduction is applied to signals that are below
the THRESHOLD. For example, a RATIO of 2 means that signals below the
THRESHOLD will be reduced by 50%. The GATE is a true dynamic range expander.
Set to higher values for a more aggressive gating effect.
ATTACK (milliseconds): Adjusts the attack time of the noise GATE. This controls
how much time it takes for the GATE to open once the input signal has risen above
the THRESHOLD.
RELEASE (milliseconds): Adjusts the release time of the noise GATE. This controls
how much time it takes for the GATE to close after the input signal has fallen below
the THRESHOLD. Set to lower values to allow the GATE to operate quickly. Be sure
not to set too low or you could negatively affect the sustain and decay of your
guitar.
