Noise Reduction goes beyond the capabilities of most spectral noise gate plug-ins by offering a good range of customization options. The soft knee control is fully adjustable over a very wide range, so you can avoid many of the sonic anomalies that other spectral noise gates impart to audio material.
Noise Gate is a noise gate VST plugin - software for audio noise reduction ('cancellation') before or after applying other effects that may highly amplify noise like a distortion, compressor.

The Bob Perry Gate is the ideal way of making the best of your signal. VST3, real Side Chaining and the choice between three distinct algorithms make the Bob Perry Gate a supreme audio plug-in.

Perfect for bringing that noise level down, be it for Drums, Vocals, Guitars, or just to be creative.

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.

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.

System Requirements:

Mac

AAX/AU (Audio Units)/RTAS/VST/VST3

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.
