Hi,

i build this rather simple gate today. It's nothing more than a vca connceted to a pulsewave generator. To reduce klicking pulsewaves pass a lowpass filter. The stereo version let you set the phases of the volume regulating pulse waves.

But my qustion is what other ways are there to archieve a gating effect?

is there something you miss or u feel the need to improve? for me it's a good and simple gating effect. maybe you could enhance some features.... f.e. a control for the smoothness by controlling the cutoff frequency of the filter, a control for the min and max values....

It just feels so... simple?

my gate:

its audio capable and whatever noone cares

I care, slur...I care.

thanks

not able to check any patches right now, but here are some suggestions:

* variable attack and release times
* variable gate 'floor'. ie, gate can cut 1->100% of the signal when closed.

hmm my gate doesn't have a "floor" (wet/dry)... jet?
