Intelligent Gate Question

[beteasta351]

Hey guys, hopefully someone can answer my question quickly, it's not a huge deal but...

Can someone please explain to me how the intelligent gate at the front end is any different than the classic gate, using the same settings?

Thanks!

in google, i typed "axe fx wiki intelligent gate" and found this:

http://wiki.fractalaudio.com/axefx2/index.php?title=Noise_gate_effect

The gate features two types: “Classic” and “Intelligent”. The Classic type is a basic downward expander. The Intelligent type features faster and more stable gating along with a proprietary noise reduction algorithm.

Gotta love that 'Wiki'

Thanks so much! I'll check the wiki next time just to be sure it's not there.

It's ironic that you mention this. I was just playing yesterday and thought to myself how much better the gate performed now versus when I had an axe fx standard several years ago. It's so transparent now that it's basically invisible! Another testament to Cliff's never ending pursuit of perfection!
