Available from Gear4Music at £149.00 ($189).

The Sonnox Oxford Drum Gate 2 (Native) is a highly advanced noise gate tailored specific to drums that delivers transparent gating while retaining the natural timbre of your drums. Unlike traditional noise gates that open whenever audio crosses a volume threshold Drum Gate 2 intelligently detects and classifies kicks snares hi-hats and toms. This means loud bleed can be rejected without sacrificing quieter intentional hits or subtle ghost notes. And unlike source-separation processing it controls spill without altering the character of your original drum audio with smeared transients or unnatural artefacts. Featuring the unique Adaptive Decay technology Drum Gate 2 responds to the velocity of each detected hit retaining natural shell resonance while controlling unwanted noise. Drum Gate 2 also aligns time polarity and phase across your drum tracks helping restore low-end weight transient definition and cohesion across multi-mic recordings. Not just simply a noise gate Drum Gate 2 is packed with intelligent levelling per-hit clipping external sidechain triggering and sample-accurate MIDI export and you have precise drum control without fighting conventional gating controls.
