5.4.1: GATE
The Ui24R Gate section is accesible via the Edit Tab on the top toolbar. A Gate is a threshold-driven
gain reduction process normally used to attenuate a signal when its level falls below the Threshold.

ATTACK
Adjust the Attack of the gate
The attack time controls the speed of the gate opening. The time is in microseconds, under one second.
A gate that opens too quickly on a slower signal attack can produce a click sound. The simple solution is
to extend the attack time until the click sound disappears. Consider very fast attack times for percussive

HOLD
Adjust the Hold time.
The hold time is the minimum time the gate is held open. Hold time is often set to a minimum of 20-30
milliseconds to prevent chatter. Chatter is the constant opening and closing of a gate due to a high-speed
