Sonible – smart:gate 🎯🔊

Say goodbye to guesswork and messy signal cuts — Sonible’s smart:gate is here to revolutionize how you clean up your mix! 🚀 Unlike traditional gates that react only to overall input levels, smart:gate uses content-aware AI technology to detect your exact target source 🎙️🎸🥁 and open/close with unmatched precision. Whether it’s vocals, guitar, piano, or kick — this plugin makes gating as simple as choosing from a dropdown menu.
