G4 Quad Gate 

Combining familiar front panel controls with the accuracy and performance of digital signal processing, Rane’s full-featured, high performance G4 Quad Gate is suitable for use in a variety of demanding dynamics processing applications. Gating, ducking and downward expansion modes are offered, together with internal high- and low-cut filters and external side-chain inputs. It is the ideal tool for front of house, monitor, instrument and voice processing, broadcast and recording.

Analog controls (knobs, sliders) allow a performer or sound engineer to make precise adjustments in real time. Digital signal processing (DSP) provides a degree of accuracy, consistency and flexibility that simply cannot be matched with a traditional analog design. The G4 combines the best of both worlds by using analog controls and high performance digital processing to achieve an unprecedented feature set. Benefits of this approach:

• Allows the use of advanced compression and dynamic EQ techniques which are difficult or costly to implement in traditional analog designs.
• Improved accuracy and repeat-ability.
• Exceptional immunity to RF and electromagnetic interference.
• Lower cost per channel.

Dynamics controls include: 

• Gate / Expand / Duck Modes
• Look-ahead Gating
• Stereo Link
• Adjustable Threshold, Attack, Release, Hold, Depth and Ratio
• Gain Reduction / Gate meter
• Bypass

Side-chain processing includes: 

• Side-Chain metering
• Internal Low- and High-Cut Filters
• Internal / External switch
• Listen switch
