sideGATE is a lookahead flexigate with virtual sidechain input.

Features:

• 2 inputs, 2 outputs.
• Mono, stereo or dual mono operation.
• Mixable channels & sidechains.
• Sidechain filter with HP, LP, resonance & gain.
• Lookahead of up to 1000 ms.
• ‘Just in time’ link mode.
• Channel & sidechain link switches.
• Sidechain monitoring switches.
• Response invert switches.
• Output pan & mix controls.

Uses

Voice Production: Use sideGATE as a lookahead noise-gate when, for example, you have a presenter speaking against background noise. Normal gating would result in a bump in background noise as the presenter speaks and the gate opens but with sideGATE’s lookahead feature the background noise can be gently faded in before the presenter speaks creating a smoother, less objectionable, sound.

Music Production: When the sidechain is higher than the threshold the channel is audible, when lower it is gated – just the sort of functionality needed to gate a reverb according to the level of a snare drum, a synth according to a hi-hat, a bass according to a bass drum and so on.

sideGATE can also be used to alter the attack of a sound (e.g. soften a solo electric guitar making it feel more like a lap steel) and its panned outputs can be used to create a situation where the position of a sound in the stereo field is switched according to its volume.

Features:

• Sampling Rate: 44.1k, 48k, 88.2k, 96k support.
• 32bit float internal precision.
• Threshold (-60dB to 0dB): Set the threshold level of the gate.
• Attack (0.05ms to 100ms): Set the attack time of the gate.
• Hold (0ms to 1000ms): Set the hold time of the gate.
• Release (ShortRel to 2000ms): Set the release time of the gate.
• Expand Ratio (1:1 to 30:1): Set the ratio of the expander. If you want to use this as only gate effect, set “1:1”.
• Range (-oodB to 0dB): Set the minimum level when the gate closes.
• KeyListen (ON or OFF): Output the trigger signals.
• LPF Cutoff Freq (20Hz to off): Set the cutoff frequency of a low pass filter for the trigger signals.
• HPF Cutoff Freq (off to 20000Hz): Set the cutoff frequency of a high pass filter for the trigger signals.
• Input channels were assigned:
  • for stereo:
    • input ch1: signal input L.
    • input ch2: signal input R.
    • input ch3: key input L (for SideChain).
    • input ch4: key input R (for SideChain).
  • for mono:
    • input ch1: signal input.
