Quickly cut out low hum and noise from the signal, cut reverb tails short or exaggerate the dynamics in a beat. The possibilities are... maybe not endless, but should cover your gating needs!

kHs Gate has simple but powerful controls for tuning in the desired effect, and can easily be driven by an external sidechain signal. The gate can also be flipped around to make a signal duck under another.

Attack - The attack time is the time it takes to for the gate to fully open when the input volume is over the threshold.
Hold - The hold time is the minimum time the gate will stay open.
Release - The release time is the time it takes to for the gate to fully close when the input volume is under the threshold.
Threshold - The volume threshold for when the gate will open.
Tolerance - A hysteresis range requiring the volume to drop a set amount of dB under the threshold before closing.
Range - The amount to attenuate the signal when the gate is closed.
Look-ahead - When enabled, a 5ms look-ahead will be used, allowing transients through at the cost of latency.
Flip - When flipped, the gate will act in reverse attenuating the signal when the gate is open.
VU Meter - Displays the current input level, the selected threshold and tolerance, and the gate's current state.
Sidechain - When you select anouther sound source in the sidechain drop-down the plugin uses that source for determining the behaviour of the plugin instead, it still effects the main sound source. This is useful for lowering a lead sound whenever the kick hits.
