One Small Clue has announced the release of Preston Gate, a high quality gate, expander and ducker plug-in that is ideal for adding punch to drums, dynamics shaping and noise removal.

Preston Gate features a clearly designed interface that balances flexibility and immediacy. Attack, Hold and Release parameters offer precise control over the gate envelope behaviour, while the Ratio and Range parameters allow just the right effect strength to be dialed in.

Preston Gate can be triggered with an external input, either audio or MIDI. The key signal can be further processed with low and high cut filters to improve gating accuracy.

Features:

• Fast gate response.
• External audio or MIDI input.
• Zero latency.
• A/B facility for quick comparisons.
• Works at all sample rates from 44.1 to 192 khz.
• Precise and fast metering.

Pricing & Availability

Preston Gate costs $49 and is available for Windows as VST effect plug-in.
