CONSOLE AI | Managing Channels (CP2) | 235
Option Description
Hold Time How long the channel stays gated on after the audio falls below the
Gate Ratio threshold. The hold time range is from 0.1 to 8.0 seconds.
The default is 0.3 seconds.
Off Attenuation The amount of level reduction applied to a channel when it is gated off.
The range is from 0 to 60dB. The default is 18dB.
Decay Rate How fast a channel gates off after the Hold Time expires. The default is
Medium.
Adaptive Ambient (Auto
Only)
Adjusts the ambient reference level as noise and room conditions
change. When Adaptive Ambient is on, the mic channel monitors
the ambient noise level on the input and adjusts the ambient level
reference automatically. This means that the gate threshold level
automatically increases or decreases based on background noise. The
default is On.
Manual Ambient Tracking
(Auto Only)
The input will use the fixed ambient level you specify in the Ambient
Level field as its gating reference.
Chairman Override Provides gating priority for this mic input over any other mic input within
the same gating group that is set to Auto gating mode. When a mic
with Chairman Override enabled gates on, all mics which do not have
Chairman Override enabled will gate off. The default is Off.
