| Share your Gate secrets! Hi guys! The modern world tells us to do everything ITB but I'm a proud owner of 4 dbx 363x gates and I would like to share secrets with you... My secret (the secret) I use my gate to control the hiss from my pioneer spring reverb and I also feed the signal to a compressor for some smack - works great! I used the same config together with e-guitar... Please add to this love gate fest; Add you secret and be a member of the secret that is no more... Share - P2P - Share - Thanks!

| during tape days when someone cut something low and there was hiss i would mult the output of the tape channel.. run 1 into the gate trigger and 1 into a 3-4 ms delay and then into the gate input . that way the gate would always open just ahead of the audio track in it

| This is my "gate secret"... I put a 421 right up against the big metal gate at the front of our studio parking lot and kicked the gate as hard as I could. I have about 10 of these, each one totally different. Usually I go for these when a client says "I need an explosion there", they have nice metallic overtones, especially good for "metal" music. |
