I bought the Drumgate even though I was a bit skeptical. In the video "Mixing with Mike, Plugin of the Week," the Drumgate wasn't 100% convincing. And as a non-professional, I've had difficulties with gates in the past. But first, thank you very much for reducing the price to €23! I'm not a professional, so I really appreciate it. And second, I'm extremely happy with the results of the Drumgate. It's the best result I've achieved so far in my experiments with gates on live recordings of my drums. Thank you very much, and stay safe! Best regards, Björn Mortensen
incredible gate. have been using it on a live recording that is being released and the conditions of the recording were less than ideal yet with this gate it sounds incredible. particularly dig the levelor
Please keep up the integrity of producing great products!
As advertised.......great plug in.....however, what is NOT advertised is how easy they have made the installation of this plugin with ZERO problems or having to jump through a bunch of infuriating Ilok hoops.........5 FRICKING STARS.....
I have tried different drum gates from various plugin companies. Without a doubt, this is the best one that has been made.
The absolute best Gate I've ever seen. It changed everything in my studio.
The Oxford Drum Gate is absolutely perfect for cutting out drumbleedings and afterwards soloing drums! Best results in comparison to other gate plugins!
