of a DUCK) for a very short time. This can sound unnatural, especially if the GATE closes abruptly.
There are two parameters which you can adjust, HOLD and RELEASE. By setting a long HOLD time,
the gate can be kept open even after the signal has dropped below the threshold. The RELEASE
parameter specifies the length of time it takes for the gate to close, causing the signal to gradually
cut off.
Other triggers
The signal level is not the only way to trigger a duck/gate. The [TRIGGER] key or a footswitch
connected to the TRIGGER Footswitch Jack on the back panel, or a MIDI Note On (for GATE) or
Note Off (for DUCK) message can also be used. The HOLD and RELEASE parameters work with any
trigger.
Re-trigger
If the DUCK/GATE is continuously triggered by any of the other sources, it may be kept from
closing. As the GATE responds to a trigger source and will open for the set HOLD time, a trigger
received while the GATE is open will act as a "re-trigger", causing the GATE to remain open.
