Noise Gate - Hysteresis

Hi. In this video, we're gonna use hysteresis to refine the way that the gate opens and closes. Cos right now it will kind of close shortly after it opens because a little bit of signal crossed the threshold and then came back underneath it again. And those little flutters can be a bit distracting can uh not really help but mix. Now, if I set the hysteresis to minus 10 DB, let's see what happens. The W so the gate opened and stayed opened. Let's see what happens when it's at zero DB. The wind rushes past it opened and closed, opened and closed, opened and closed. So what's happening there is the level is exceeding the threshold, it's coming back down underneath the threshold again. But because the signal will just do that quite frequently anyway, is creating this flutter. What hysterics does is instead of it's crossing the threshold at minus 59 DB and then crossing the threshold on the way back down again after minus 59 DB is actually doing it at minus DB. So that it doesn't always op...

en and close, it will only close. Now when it's crossed the threshold and minus three DB below that. Let's do that again. At minus four, the wind rushes past my face and through my hair. Great. So there was less instances of the gate opening and closing very frequently. It's now less frequent because the signal has more time to fall below the threshold and a few DB below it. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video.
