Noise Reduction
The source of many tracks in a music or post production can contain unwanted background noise, equipment hum, and just plain old hissing. Placing an Expander/Gate on every track, while not necessary, can be a quick and effective way of removing low level noise in the entire mix. A less desirable alternative would be to remove regions of audio that did not contain the actual performance, as it can be tedious and may still not yield the desired result. Conveniently, Channel G’s default Expander/Gate control settings are well suited for this practice.
Gated Drums
Often in music production the use of heavy compression to enhance the sound of the recorded drum kit. Such effects can be easily achieved with the Compressor/Limiter section of the G Dynamics and G Console configurations. This technique, however, can introduce a lot of unwanted background noise into the track. Inserting an Expander/Gate before the compressor achieves success in not only removing unwanted signal from the track, but can be further used to gate the drums themselves.
Performance Control
Some tracks can be improved using a gentle ratio, such as 2:1 or 4:1, and a reduced range of roughly – 20 dB. A vocal track, for example, would contain the singing, pauses, and inhales/exhales of the vocalist. As the vocal performance was compressed, some of these other sounds would also be affected, and quite possibly increased in signal level. To remove such sounds, without drastically affecting the vocal itself, an expander is placed in the signal chain prior to compression.
