What is a gate, and how can it be used in mixing to improve your next project? Follow along as Sam Loose demystifies dynamics processing, wrapping up the series with gates. Learn what noise gates are and how they provide a floor level which an audio signal must cross to get through the gate. Plus discover how gates can be used in mixing for creative effect or to cut out audio when it’s quiet and unneeded.
