SUS4 SmartGate

Frequency-aware gating with sidechain EQ: open on snare, stay shut on bleed.

Included in the SUS4 plugin bundle. One licence, every plugin, every update.

Frequency-aware gating with a sidechain EQ: open on the snare, stay shut on the hi-hat bleed. Gate by what’s in the signal, not just how loud it is.

The clean way to isolate a drum in a busy kit without chattering or false triggers.
