• TRANCEGATE
The Trancegate is a rhythmic audio-gating effect, The gating pattern is controlled by the last 4
controls in the effect, which each switch between 16 possible 4-note combinations of on and off.
Therefore, any 16-step on/off sequence can be achieved.
Depth (0 dB to -inf dB)
The depth of the gating effect: by default, ‘off’ steps are reduced to -inf dB.
Attack (-1 ms to 500 ms)
The attack time of the gating effect.
Hold (0 to 1)
The hold time of the gating effect.
Release (2ms to 1000 ms)
The release time of the gating effect.
1-4 (1 to 16 bit pattern)
5-8 (1 to 16 bit pattern)
9-12 (1 to 16 bit pattern)
13-16 (1 to 16 bit pattern)
The last 4 parameters in the Trancegate effect define the on/off pattern of the gating sequence.
There are 16 possible settings (or ‘bit-patterns’) for each control. The bit patterns are as follows
(0 = OFF, 1 = ON):
Parameter value Bit-Pattern
1 0000
2 0001
3 0010
4 0011
5 0100
