Gating, in its fundamental form, silences audio signals below a set threshold. If a
signal rises above the set level, the gate opens to let the signal through. Signals
below the set level are silenced. MIDI Gate, however, is not triggered by threshold
levels, but MIDI notes. Therefore, it needs both audio and MIDI data to function.
Attack (0 to 500 ms)
Sets the time after which the gate opens when it is triggered.
Hold
Determines how long the gate remains open after a note-on or note-off
message. The Hold Mode settings are taken into account.
Release (0 to 3000 ms)
Sets the time after which the gate closes after the set Hold time.
Note To Attack
Determines to which extent the velocity values of the MIDI notes affect the
attack time. The higher the value, the more the attack time increases with high
note velocities. Negative values result in shorter attack times with high
velocities. If you do not want to use this parameter, set it to 0.
Note To Release
Determines to which extent the velocity values of the MIDI notes affect the
release time. The higher the value, the more the release time increases. If you
do not want to use this parameter, set it to 0.
Velocity To VCA
Controls to which extent the velocity values of the MIDI notes determine the
output volume. At a value of 127, the volume is controlled entirely by the
velocity values, and at a value of 0, the velocities have no effect on the volume.
Hold Mode
Sets the Hold Mode.
•In Note-On mode, the gate only remains open for the time set with the
Hold and Release parameters, regardless of the length of the MIDI note
that triggered the gate.
