Hold 0 to 500 m Sec
The Hold control sets the amount of time the gate is held open after the
signal passes below the threshold point.
Threshold -50 dB to 22 dB
The threshold is the volume level at which the gate opens. Anything
above the threshold passes, while signal that is lower than the threshold
is attenuated. Beware, setting the threshold too high can cut off the tail
end of signals as they fade out (the sustain of a guitar note, a held piano
chord, a reverb tail, etc.).
Ratio 1:1.0 to 1:15
This is where you decide how much downward expansion you want. This
ratio works opposite from that of the compressor or limiter. If a ratio of 1:4
is selected, a signal that is 1dB below the threshold will be reduced in
gain so that it becomes 4dB below the threshold.
Max ATT 0 to Inf. dB
This sets the maximum amount of attenuation for the gate.
4.3 Notch Filters(NF)
The notch filter is the perfect tool for dropping out undesirable
frequencies that may appear in the input signal. Up to six Notch filters are
available for all six outputs. The
curve of the selected notch filter
will be highlighted in red, which
can be illustrated by the red
curve in the following diagram.
The curves that are not selected
are shown in different colors
which stand for the different
types of notch filters. The
parameter setting interface is
as follows:
