1. sound shaping The software includes a set of advanced features which are found in no other product Wire Grind Advanced Noise Gate is the world s premier noise gate effect It has all the features you would expect on a top of the line noise gate and more Spectrally conscious gating and multi band output with a separate range setting for each band Side chaining two attack envelopes independent and linked channel processing ducking peak and RMS level detection surround sound processing capability Advanced gating Controls There are also many advanced features found nowhere else Delay the onset of envelope with Attack Delay cut notes off early with Note Truncate force the gate to stay closed with Triggered Muting and use our Beat Skip feature to probabilistically mute entire beats in real time Advanced Equalization Controls Advanced Noise Gate uses special equalizers The control signal has a three band equalizer with strong band separation The output signal has a special split three band equalizer with six levels controls These controls can provide multi band range They also offer other possibilities such as gating on one band while ducking on another Anti Clicking Technology Advanced Noise Gate uses anti clicking technology Other noise gates can create a clicking noise when using short attack times In contrast Advanced Noise Gate produces almost no clicking noise even when using attack times under 1 ms Carefully Tu2. The time is given as the T60 which is the time it takes the signal level to decrease by 60 dB Hold An effect known as chatter can be produced when a noise gate rapidly opens and closes Increase the hold to prevent this Decrease it if you would like to a slightly faster response time on the release RMS Win This feature is only available when RMS mode is enabled Higher RMS times can be used to minimize the affect of momentary volume spikes and at times be better suited for detecting more droned out sounds Lower RMS times will result in a behavior approaching that of peak mode Peak mode responds faster than RMS Peak mode is better at capturing the very beginning of a note such as when the crack or the crunch of a note are important Attack Envelope synth slow This option provides a choice of two attack envelopes 1 SYNTH The gate opens quickly and then increases slightly until the maximum is reached This has been modeled off of a synthesizer attack envelope 2 SLOW The gate opens gradually creating a smooth volume swell Channel Processing indi linked This option provides a choice of two processing modes 1 INDI All control signal channels are analyzed separately and separate operations are performed on each output channel 2 LINKED CH All control signal channels are analyzed together and the same opera tions are performed on each output channel Gating Mode std duck This option provides a choice

5. ned Envelopes Advanced Noise Gate uses envelopes specially sculpted to have a pleasant musical sound The release envelope mimics the decay of a real instrument There are also two optional attack envelopes One models the envelope of an analog synthesizer The other produces a smooth gradual volume swell that can be more perceptually pleasing with longer attack times 2 Features e Mono stereo and multi channel processing e Side channel processing e Anti clicking technology e Attack envelope delay e Note length truncation e Triggered muting e Probabilistic gating e Peak and RMS level detection Process channels independently or link them together Two attack envelope shapes Slow volume effect Three band weighting of input signal Three band output with separate gain adjustment for both the open and the closed states This feature is equivalent to multi band range control VU meter displaying both highest and lowest channel levels Dual gate level meters displaying both the most open and most closed gate levels Specifications Supported Sample Rates 44 1kHz 48kHz 88 2kHz 96kHz Advanced Noise Gate is expected to work for any sample rate between at least 11 025kHz and 384kHz although this has not been tested Running the demo at the sample rate in question should give a very good indication of whether or not it works at that sample rate s Supported Channel Formats Many channel formats are supported mon
