Release
This determines how fast the Gate closes after the sound falls below the set threshold.
The longer the Release time, the longer is the period for the sound to fade out.
Auto
Activate this to set the Release time automatically. The Gate analyzes the input sound
continuously to find the optimal Release time. The Release knob is disabled when
Auto Release is active.
Peak – RMS
Determines whether the input signal is analyzed according to peak or RMS values (or
a mixture of both). At a setting of 0 % the Gate uses Peak sensing only and at 100 %
RMS sensing only. Peak means that the Gate directly senses the peak level of the
sound. RMS is an abbreviation for root mean square, a statistical measure for the
amplitude of sounds. RMS means that the Gate senses the average power of the
sound. Peak sensing responds faster than RMS sensing. Typically, Peak sensing is
used for transient and RMS sensing for sustained sounds.
Panner and Routing Effects
Stereo Pan
This effect allows you to set the stereo position and width of the signal.
Input Swap
Activate the Input Swap option if you want to swap the stereo channels.
Pan
Here you can set the pan position of the signal. The panning is available for mono and
stereo input signals.
Width
This parameter allows you to adjust the stereo width of the signal from stereo to mono.
Surround Panner
The Surround Panner allows you to position a signal in a two-dimensional surround
field. You can either pan the left/right and the front/rear position independently using
the corresponding knobs or use the positioning handle to control both positions at the
same time.
