Sony DPS-R7 - Algorithm 6: Gate (GTE); Gate Effect Operation and Parameters

Algorithm 6 Gate
This is a dual channel gate. The function of a gate is to turn
on and off the output signals according to the level of input
signals. Making good use of this function, you can set the
parameters so as to output only attacking sound or to reduce
noise when there is no signal.
Also, you can change the time constant by which the gate is
turned on or off. This allows you to change the envelope
during attacking or releasing and thus to obtain an effective
sound. .
In particular, using this in conjucntion with the reverberation
for the percussive input signals such as drums, you will be
able to obtain a real gated reverberation.
(When using this algorithm as a gated reverberation, also
use the same algorithm in the post-effect block.
The predelays on the main lines adjust the time required for
signal detection. For example you can apply the predelay to
the original sound to create an effect as if it had been
passed through the gate processing.
