easyGater is a free sequenced gater plugin for PC and MAC which modulates the volume of an audio input signal and uses very low system resources.

Here’s a quick list about the best free arpeggiator VST plugins. However, I will also include 3 premium ones which are absolutely amazing And you should definitely check them out!

You can now easily increase the dynamics and synchronization of your songs.

Features:

• 32 steps synchronized with the host. Each step can be set as duration but also as volume. Triplet and Dotted mode supported.
• Can be set to the host speed (rate synchronized with host).
• Set the length of a cycle.
• Attack and Release for each step. You can also set the transition between steps with different volume in the Fade knob
• You can change the volume target at the output of an internal filter: Low Gain, High Gain and oscillations between Low and High. You can also set the frequency that split the Low and High frequencies values
• You can change the global time for all steps. You can to lock the steps set as tie so that the decrease of the global time gate does not decrease the time for the tie(link) steps.
• You can change the values of the steps globally as time (blue arrows on the left) and as volume (green arrows on the right).
• Few presets useful for a few musical genres: Trance, House, Groove.

Tips:

• Value input by key: over the knob and right click, insert value by key then hit enter
• Set default value: double click on the knob

A noise gate is similar to a compressor in the sense that, it is used to control the loudest and the quietest part of an audio signal, but specifically, a noise gate reduces audio signals that are below a certain threshold, so, when the signals are above a threshold, it let the signal pass-through (opens the gate). on the other hand, if the signals fall below the threshold, no signal is allowed to pass (closed the gate) or the signal is attenuated with respect to the settings dialed.

Practically, noise gates are used to remove noises in an audio signal, for example, if you have some unwanted noise you would love to attenuate, you can use a noise gate plugin to find the threshold where that noise becomes annoying and adjust your settings to quiet everything below that.

Also, it can be used for sidechaining, gluing bass & kick drum together, and in fact, most producers I know use it for stuttering effect, where you can turn a sound e.g an ‘Ah’ sample sound into the same rhythm as the drumbeat, which in turn makes it groovy and danceable on the dance floor 😉

Since Noise gate works similarly to a compressor, you can read the guide on how compression works to understand some of its parameters. In this guide, I will be recommending the best Noise Gate VST/AU/AXX Plugin for use in your DAW, let’s get started…

• 5.) FabFilter Pro-G – Fabfilter ($179.00)

1.) Gatekeeper – Polyverse ($49.00)

The first Gate plugin on our list is Gatekeeper plugin by Polyverse, which is not only easy to use but also intuitive and allows for drastic, punchy gating and sequencing while keeping the output smooth.

Whether you plan on using gate as an LFO, envelope, step sequencer, volume automation, Gatekeeper is capable of all that, plus it has 8 MIDI programmable envelopes, CV output for external hardware, and hundreds of presets that will spice up your sounds.

Note that, Gatekeeper doesn’t work well for denoising, so, if you want a gate plugin that would attenuate noise at a certain threshold, I’ll highly recommend using Gatey Watey by Boz Digital Labs, which is what I am reviewing next.

• Sample fast and precise volume modulation
• Expressive and fun envelope drawing tools
• Boost and clip features for extra punch
• Smoothing algorithm to eliminate clicks and pops
• 8 independent volume envelopes
• Fully customizable midi-triggering
• Panning tools
• Tempo mapped looping
• CV output for Modular synths
• Hundreds of presets

System Requirements:

2.) Gatey Watey – Boz Digital Labs ($49.00)

Gatey Watey is a simple and easy to use gate plugin, it lets you choose which frequencies you want to attenuates when the signal falls below the threshold, similar to the way the threshold kicks in compression settings. Gatey Watey works well for de-noising annoying signal without affecting the main audio signal, a use case is getting rid of drum bleed without cutting off your drums.

Unlike Gatekeeper that isn’t suitable for denoising, Gatey Watey has a frequency selective attenuation, which means you can tell it to only attenuate a certain frequency when the input drop below the threshold. This feature can be really powerful if you know what you are doing, for example, if you want to cut the high hat bleed out of a snare without killing the ring of the snare, Gatey Watey is your preferred choice.

Key Features:

• Frequency selective gating
• Lookahead
• Simple Interface
• No Learning Curve

System Requirements:

Mac

• AAX/AU (Audio Units)/RTAS/VST/VST3

Windows

3.) Gate Snapin – kiloHearts ($19.00)

This is my favorite gating plugin, and I highly recommend this for producers or mixing engineer that love simple and straight to the point plugins. The Gate Snapin by kiloHearts helps to get rid of low hum and noise from your audio signal, cut reverb tails short or exaggerate the dynamics in a beat.

If for some reason, you want a ducking effect/sidechaining, it can be easily driven by an external sidechain signal, However, I’ll highly recommend sidechaining through your stock plugins, it’s a matter of preference anyway, use what suits your style.

System Requirments:

• CPU: 2 GHz or faster
• Memory: 1 GB or more
• Operating System: Windows (7 or newer) or Mac OS X (10.7 or newer)
  Supported formats: AAX/AU/VST2/Snapin

4.) Trance Gate Snapin – kiloHearts ($39.00)

This is another gating plugin by kiloHearts, Trance Gate Snapin can be used to chop up any sort of sound, think of it as a gate sequencer where you chop up an audio signal, and turn it into an arpeggio or rhythmical groove.

System Requirments:

• CPU: 2 GHz or faster
• Memory: 1 GB or more
• Operating System: Windows (7 or newer) or Mac OS X (10.7 or newer)
  Supported formats: AAX/AU/VST2/Snapin

5.) FabFilter Pro-G – Fabfilter ($179.00)

Fabfilter Pro G features 6 awesome expander/gate algorithms, including upward expansion and ducking or sidechaining.

One feature I love about the Fabfilter Pro G is the way you can route signals, also, you can choose between mono, stereo or mid/side processing and in expert mode, external side chain input is available with completely customizable channel linking and routing.
