Unlock the full potential of your drum tracks with the Sonnox Oxford Drum Gate 2, a game-changing tool in the world of gate plugins. Perfect for both studio professionals and home recording enthusiasts, this plugin redefines precision and control in drum processing. With its Adaptive Resonant Decay algorithm, Drum Gate 2 allows you to achieve clean, natural-sounding drum mixes by intelligently separating resonant decay from unwanted spill, all while preserving the integrity of transients.

Whether you're working with complex multi-mic setups or straightforward single-track recordings, the Drum Gate 2 offers unparalleled flexibility. Its improved classification model ensures accurate detection of drum hits, while the Align tab provides time, polarity, and phase alignment, solving common issues found in multi-mic recordings. For those who love a visual aid, the plugin offers clear visual feedback and stereo linking options to streamline your workflow.

Say goodbye to third-party alignment tools and enjoy the simplicity of integrated solutions. The external sidechain input supports both audio and MIDI triggering, providing creative possibilities for synchronized gating across multiple channels. Plus, the new Hit Clip feature ensures your drums maintain their punch and clarity, even in the densest mixes, by dynamically adjusting the transient treatment for each hit.
