Gatey Watey

Gatey Watey

<p>Gatey Watey is a lightweight but clever gate plugin. Unlike traditional gates, Gatey Watey lets you choose which frequencies get attenuated when the level drops below the threshold, making for a much more natural sounding gate. It works great for getting rid of drum bleed without cutting off your drums, or de-noising electric guitars without cutting off the sustain. Basically, it’s how all gates should work, but for some reason, they don’t.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Really? A gate plugin?</strong></p><p>Let’s just be honest here for a minute. It’s really hard to get excited about a gate plugin. Part of the reason I have a hard time getting excited about gates is because they all pretty much seem to do the same thing, with some minor differences between different gates. But that’s why we made Gatey Watey. It stems from the idea that gates, even as a utility, can be much better.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>What Sets Gatey Watey Apart from the Zillions of Gates Out There?</strong></p><p>Gatey Watey has one feature that we believe every gate should have; frequency selective attenuation. What this means, is that you can tell Gatey Watey to only attenuate the high frequencies (or the low frequencies, if you’re into that sort of thing) when the input drops below the threshold. This turns out to be super powerful when it comes to gating drums, electric guitars, or pretty much anything that requires a gate. 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 man. Do you want your distorted guitars to ring out without without your neighbor’s fluorescent light collection blaring through your pickups? Gatey Watey to the rescue.</p><p>Even in normal gating situations, Gatey Watey excels. You just tell it what to turn down, and how much to turn it down.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Simple to Use</strong></p><p>We packaged Gatey Watey in a way that makes it dead simple to use. It does its thing, and it does it well. Anybody of any skill level will be able to open up Gatey Watey for the first time and immediately see what’s going on.</p><p><br></p><h4><strong>Features</strong></h4><ul><li>Frequency selective gating</li><li>Lookahead</li><li>Simple Interface</li><li>No Learning Curve</li></ul><h4><strong>System Requirements</strong></h4><p><strong>Mac</strong></p><p><strong>Note for M1 Mac Users:&nbsp;</strong>This plugin is not yet compiled to work natively on M1 Macs.

The plug-in automatically detects the presence of a chosen target source (e.g. vocals, keys, kick) and allows to focus on this source when gating. Unlike conventional gates, smart:gate does not open or close depending on the overall level of the input signal, but it only reacts to signal components belonging to the target. This content-awareness helps to make the gate much more stable and easier to parametrize than conventional gates and it even allows to use the gate, if some background signal occasionally exceeds the level of the target source.</p><p>Now for the first time, gating can be as simple as selecting a target source from a drop-down&nbsp;menu. Whether you’re targeting vocals, electric guitar, piano or a suite of other options, the result&nbsp;is a gate that delivers reliably even if a target source varies in level, or if a competing instrument is&nbsp;louder than the signal you want to keep.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Simple Setup, Powerful Control</strong></p><p>smart:gate’s visualizer traces the level of the detected target signal, not the entire input signal,&nbsp;making parametrization straightforward and faster. With sonible’s ‘Instant Replay’, when you&nbsp;change a parameter, the visualized signal changes the whole signal history, predicting the impact&nbsp;on the entire signal.</p><p>With Level Bias, the gating behavior can follow the detected signal more or less closely – great for&nbsp;refining the response on transient material like drums, or keeping non-transient material like vocalsmore natural. You can also use smart:gate without its content-aware AI features, for operation as a&nbsp;conventional gate.</p><p>Gating response can be customized further with the ‘Impact control’, which scales back the&nbsp;amount of gain reduction applied when the gate is closed. smart:gate also offers a Ducking mode&nbsp;to reduce the target signal instead of passing it through. A three-band suppression network helps&nbsp;to weight gating across the frequency spectrum.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Going For The Signal Source</strong></p><p>Gating can be a tricky task – with smart:gate, it’s as simple as selecting a target source from a drop-down menu. Whether you’re targeting vocals, electric guitar, piano or one of many other options, the intelligent gate reliably delivers even when the target source varies in level, or a competing instrument is louder than the signal you want to keep. smart:gate’s content-aware processing unlocks its full power where conventional gate plug-ins struggle.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Insights For Faster Workflows</strong></p><p>Finally, a gate that is truly able to differentiate between a mix and the signal component contained within it. Both the target signal’s activity and the gating are visualized in detail. Together with Instant Replay, you are provided with all the insights you need to get your parametrization and tweaking done much faster – all with familiar controls and without any guesswork.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Intuitive Interface Packed With Great Features</strong></p><p>Besides its intelligent target source detection, smart:gate sports a host of features for fine-tuning, such as a three-band suppression network for weighting the gating across the frequency spectrum. The level bias enables you to increase the level-dependency of the processing – extremely handy when you want refine the response to transient target sources. And, since gating and ducking are closely related in their processing, the gate plug-in can be switched to ducking mode, offering you the same target-focused functionality. You can also use smart:gate without its content-aware AI features as a conventional gate.</p><p><br></p><h4><strong>Features</strong></h4><ul><li>Content-aware gate processing</li><li>Wide range of instrument and sound profiles to determine the target source</li><li>Familiar control over gating response: Threshold, Attack/Release, Hold, Tolerance</li><li>Visual guidance on target source detection for easier parametrization</li><li>‘Instant replay’ prediction after parameter changes</li><li>With ‘No Target’, conventional, non-AI gating is still possible</li><li>Content-aware ducking mode to reduce selected target signal</li><li>Tailor gating across the frequency spectrum with three-band suppression control</li><li>External sidechain input; detection in mono/mid or side signals&nbsp;</li><li>Available Formats: AAX, VST, VST3 and AU</li><li>Apple Silicon: native support for M1 and M2 chips (including AAX)</li></ul><h4><strong>System Requirements</strong></h4><p><strong>Mac</strong></p><ul><li>macOS 10.13+&nbsp;<strong>(M1 Apple Silicon supported) (64-bit only)</strong></li><li>RAM - at least 4 GB (recommended)</li><li>CPU - at least Intel DualCore i5 (recommended)</li><li>Plugin Formats - AU, VST2, VST3, AAX, MultiRack Native</li><li>Supported Sample Rates - 44.1 kHz to 192 kHz</li></ul><p><strong>PC</strong></p><ul><li>Windows 10+&nbsp;<strong>(64-bit only)</strong></li><li>RAM - at least 4 GB (recommended)</li><li>CPU - at least Intel DualCore i5 (recommended)</li><li>Plugin Formats - VST2, VST3, AAX, MultiRack Native</li><li>Supported Sample Rates - 44.1 kHz to 192 kHz</li></ul><p><strong>Compatible DAW's:</strong></p><ul><li>Logic Pro</li><li>Ableton Live</li><li>Pro Tools 11+</li><li>Reaper</li><li>Cubase</li><li>Nuendo</li><li>FL Studio</li><li>Studio One</li></ul><p><br></p>
