■ GATE
This is a 2-in/2-out gate that attenuates signals below the specified threshold level.
■ M.BAND DYNA.
Two input, two output 3-band dynamics processor, with individual solo and gain reduction metering for each band.
Parameter Range Description
GATE ON ON, OFF Turns the gate function on or off.
THRESH -54 to 0 dB Sets the threshold level at which the gate begins to affect the input signal.
RANGE -70 to 0 dB Sets the level when the gate is closed.
ATTACK 0–120 ms Sets the time it take for the gate to actually open after the threshold level is exceeded.
DECAY
*1
*1. 6–46.0 s (fs=44.1kHz), 5–42.3 s (fs=48kHz)
Sets the time it takes for the gate to close completely after it begins closing.
HOLD
*2
*2. 0.02–2.13 s (fs=44.1kHz), 0.02–1.96 s (fs=48kHz)
Sets the time it takes for the gate to begin closing after the signal drops below the threshold level.
Parameter Range Description
LOW GAIN -96.0 to +12.0 dB Low band level
MID GAIN -96.0 to +12.0 dB Mid band level
HI. GAIN -96.0 to +12.0 dB High band level
PRESENCE -10 to +10
For positive values, the threshold of the high band is lowered and the threshold of the low band is
increased. For negative values, the opposite will occur. When set to 0, all three bands are affected
the same.

SOLO HIGH OFF, ON If this is on, only the high-frequency band will be output.
