Gate
1. Gates, sometimes referred to as Noise-Gates, are typically used to reduce noise from an open microphone when placed in a noisy environment by
turning off or reducing the gain until the intended signal is present. The signal must reach the threshold setting to open the Gate and allow the mic
to be heard. When the signal goes below the threshold, the Gate closes again. A common use for this feature is when making announcements in
noisy rooms. The Gate can be adjusted to keep the mic muted until someone walks up and speaks directly into it, thereby reducing the PA system
from amplifying the crowd chatter.
2. Enable the Gate and Active indicator.
