Members Bassified Posted December 20, 2006 Members Share Posted December 20, 2006 Hi guys, What does 'gate' do? I am using high gain amp models. Is it better for gate to be in the negative db? (Want to avoid feedback at band volumes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It opens when the signal reaches a level dtermined by the controls and closes when the signal drops below the set point. It means your guitar is quiet when you aren't playing it. If you set it too high it will cut your sustianing notes off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
