Gate
Gate silences audio below a threshold — useful for cutting background noise, hum, or bleed during pauses between words.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Range | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Threshold | number | 0 to 1 | 0.125 | Level below which the gate begins attenuating. |
| Ratio | number | 1 to 20 | 10 | How strongly audio below the threshold is attenuated. |
| Range | number | 0 to 1 | ~0.06 | Maximum depth of gain reduction applied when gated. |
| Attack | number | 0.01 to 9000 ms | 20 ms | How quickly the gate opens once the signal crosses the threshold. |
| Release | number | 0.01 to 9000 ms | 250 ms | How quickly the gate closes once the signal drops below the threshold. |

Silence Remover trims silence at the start/end of a clip entirely, rather than gating throughout.
