Intelligent gating built for drums. Preserve ghost notes while rejecting bleed from the rest of the kit, and phase alignment between close mics ins one click. Does in seconds what normal threshold gating makes you fight for.

The Noise Gate Built For Drums

Inconsistent hits, phase issues, and uncontrolled spill can make or break a drum mix before the rest of the production has even begun.

Not a threshold-based noise gate. Not source separation. A purpose-built drum detection engine.

Whether you're mixing live-tracked drums across close mics, overheads and rooms, or shaping kit sounds from stems, Drum Gate 2 gives you total command so these elements work for your mix rather than against it.

What's New In Drum Gate 2?


Drum Gate 1 Drum Gate 2
Detect every intended drum hit (with zero false triggers) without babysitting multiple controls. ✔︎ ✔︎
Align time, polarity, and phase across any set of drum tracks to give a clean, punchy starting point for downstream mixing decisions. ✔︎
Decay drum resonances naturally while attenuating spill (no fiddly filter-tweaking or whumpy source-separation artefacts). ✔︎ ✔︎
Level out dynamic inconsistencies without losing expressive playing dynamics. ✔︎ ✔︎
Clip each hit consistently so that drums cut through dense mixes evenly. ✔︎
Enhance pre-beat-detected drums with Drum Gate 2's Decay and Leveller (no re-detection needed). ✔︎
