Gate/Compression: Introduction
We’ve learned how to manipulate
sounds in the
EQ View
, so now it’s
time to learn how to shape the sound
with Gates and Compressors.
The 16 input channels all
have Gates and Compressors
readily available, with the ability
to tweak and manipulate multiple
settings on each.
To get here, simply swipe the
entire view up from any gray area
of the
EQ View
. The next view is
that of the Gate and Compressor.
From here, you may swipe down
to get back to the
EQ View
or
up again to get to the
FX View
.
Additionally, you may swipe left
and right in any gray area to stay
in the
Gate and Compression View
,
but instead change to the
previous or next channel.
Note: “The Swipe Zone” is called out
in each
Channel View
. If you believe
these indicate great places to swipe,
you would be correct!

The layout of the
Gate and
Compression View
is similar to that
of the
EQ View
in that the Channel
Strip, Master Fader and Navigation
Bar are present, with the Gate and
Compressor controls in the middle.
The Gate and Compressor are
presented together as one view with
the Gate on top and the Compressor
below. It is easy to set parameters of
both for each channel at one time.
We will first discuss the
features of the Gate followed
by the Compressor.
