[robert bristow-johnson] first, you need to decide of your level is to be measured as peak level or rms level or mean abs value or whatever. I'd like to throw in that I've gotten excellent results (for electric guitar) from a design that considers the instantaneous peak level for opening and

Hello dear subscribers of Music DSP ! I need your lights about a problem I have in a noise gate development for guitar amplifiers. To prevent the noise gate close and open successively on sustained notes, creating distorsion artefacts or chattering, developers include a hold functionnality or

Hello rbj ! What do you mean by slew ? Is it a filtering applied on the VCA attenuation ? I think the answer to your question is obviously no :) I may have missed a point in the implementation of noise gates. I would be glad if you can detail a little... Thanks ! Cordially, Ivan Cohen --

Hi Ivan, Most noise gates have one threshold level but they utilize different release behaviors: THAT Corporation Design Note 100 - A Fully Adjustable Noise Gate http://www.thatcorp.com/datashts/dn100.pdf Boss NF-1 Noise Gate pedal schematic diagram
