 noise gate tm116
 
noise gate with extremely fast attack, controls for all parameters,and integrated side-chain filters

the tm116 noise gate combines everything that is necessary forextensive envelope processing. the extremely fast attack time andthe click-free operation of the noise gate makes gating of criticlesignals like a kick drum possible without problems. wide controlranges for all parameters and independent controls for threshold,range, attack, release, and hold allow any kind of envelopeforming. the wide range high-pass and low-pass filters in the sidechain and a key input complete the features set of this noisegate.

the tm116 noise gate is an effective tool for any kind of envelopeprocessing of audio signals. the huge control ranges andindependent controls for all parameters make possible to use thenoise gate not only for conventional applications like drumrecording but also for noise reduction and extensive manipulationsof the signal structure.
 
the tm116 is marked out by its extremely fast attack time of 10µsec. the noise gate opens within the first halfwave of a 20 khzsignals. critical, percussive signals can be processed without fadein and without the loss of transients. a crunchy kick drum remainsas crunchy as it was.

there are controls for threshold, attack, release, and hold timeand for the attenuation range. the threshold control determines thelevel that triggers the gate to open. it is adjustable in a rangefrom - 40 db to + 20 db. the attack time controls the fade in speedin the range from 10 µs to 20 ms; the release control determinesthe fade out speed from 0.05 sec to 3 sec and the hold controlkeeps the gate open when the input level drops below threshold inthe adjustable time range from 0.02 sec to 2 sec. the release timestarts at the end of the hold time, if the gate is not retriggeredduring the hold time period. the range control sets the attenuationof the closed gate between 0 db, which actually disables the noisegate, and 70 db. the law of the pot is logarithmic, smallattenuations can be adjusted precisely.
 
the tm116 noise gate operates without hysteris; however, theminimum hold time and the special design of the circuitry preventsthe gate from 'chattering' with critical settings of theparameters. this design principle allows 'cutting out' precisely,which is not possible with hysteresis. the off-on transition rangeis less than 0.1 db down to 100 hz, which results in minimizing theclick noise.
 
the integrated side chain filter combines a wide range high-passand low-pass filter. the control range of the corner frequency from40 hz to 8 khz for the high-pass filter and from 15 khz to 50 hzfor the low-pass filter allow the use as band-pass filters as well.the steepness is 12 db/oct. 'scl' (side chain listen) switches thefilter output to the main output for easy control of the filtersetting.
 
an external audio signal can control the gate by the key input.actually, the key input is a balanced insert point with input andoutput; both are available on the trs jacks on the connector panelof the frame. the push pull switch of the range pot activates thekey input.
 
a led chain with 5 led's displays the actual state of the gate. thegreen led shows that the gate is open, the yellow led lights upduring the hold time. three red leds display the attenuation whenthe gate is closed or the release time is running.
 
the tm116 noise gate is a 2u toolmod module that fits into allavailable toolmod frames. horizontal and vertical versions areavailable.
