Remove Silence dialog
Remove Silence dialog
When you use the Process > Apply Effect > Remove Silence command, or click the Gate
Settings button in the Freeze Options dialog box, the Remove Silence dialog box appears. This
command creates absolute silence during silent passages, eliminating extraneous noise.
The
Remove Silence dialog box has the following fields:
Preset field (only appears with Process Audio command)
Use this field to choose and enter presets. Click the Save button to save any group of new settings
after you enter a name in the Preset field. Click the Delete button to delete any selected group from
the Preset field.
Open Level (db)
The value in this field is how loud the sound must get (the loudness threshold) before SONAR stops
silencing the sound. The gate “officially” opens when loudness rises above this level, although it can
open earlier because of the
Attack Time (see Attack Time ).
Close Level (db)
The value in this field is how soft the sound must get (the softness threshold) before SONAR starts
silencing the sound. The gate “officially” closes when loudness falls below this level, although it can
stay open later because of the Release Time (see
Release Time ).
Attack Time (ms)
The value in this field is the interval of time after the volume reaches the Open Level for the gate to
fully open. Opening the gate gradually produces a fade-in effect instead of an instant on-off sound.
Hold Time (ms)
The value in this field is the minimum time for the gate to stay open. Hold Time is useful when
you've set high open and close levels—for example, when your source signal is very loud. Noise
gates set this way tend to react to repeated percussive passages (such as drum rolls) by repeatedly
opening and closing; this can sound unpleasant. By setting a hold time, you can ensure that the gate
stays open long enough during percussive passages.
Look Ahead (ms)
The value in this field causes the gate to open slightly before the sound reaches the Open Level so
you don’t lose the sound’s attack.
Release Time (ms)
The value in this field is the interval of time after the volume reaches the Close Level before the
gate actually closes. This lets the tail end of sounds pass through without being clipped.
