;Speed :Rotate the Speed control to set the gate closing speed to any value from 0% (fastest) to 100% (slowest).
;Speed :Rotate the Speed control to set the gate closing speed to any value from 0% (fastest) to 100% (slowest).
: You may find a slower Speed the more gradual the cut-off, and this may sound more natural as a singer naturally lowers their volume at times.

;Ramp(T4S/T8S) :Press the Speed control button to access the Ramp control. Press the Ramp control button to switch back to Speed.
;Ramp (T4S/T8S only) :Press the Speed control button to access the Ramp control. Press the Ramp control button to switch back to Speed.
:Rotate the Ramp control to adjust the slope of the gate from 0% (horizontal) to 100% (vertical). The Ramp parameter is the slope of the opening gate allowing signal through. It can be thought of and perceived through time. A steep ramp (100%) will open quick and aggressively, while a shallow ramp (0%) opens slow and more gradually. This is different than Speed which affects how quickly the gate clamps down after the signal has passed.

:You may set the Ramp closer to 100% so the beginnings of phrases are allowed through rather than ramping up the volume slowly.

<br>The Ramp/Speed describes a ratio of how the noise gate attenuates the sound once the threshold has been reached (how quickly the reduction is applied).

The same principles apply to the T4S/T8S, but they have the Ramp control.
