For those who record drums with mics at home. Or deal with samples of such. Basically sampled audio.
Do you get transient taming with the SSl Console gate that you are happy with?
Do any if yous use the https://shop.propellerheads.se/rack-ext ... amic-gate/?
I think I want to remove the "hair" from my tracks. The spikes you see in the attached picture, from something I recorded yesterday in by basement.
It sounds ok to me, but, don't those high peaks restrict the potential overall volume level of the track, if say I wanted to make it like annoyingly loud?
I've never used that G8 RE so I hate to get it to find it does nothing the SSl can't do.
I think I want the functionallity you see at 2:50 in the video here https://musictechstudent.co.uk/music-te ... nt-gating/
thoughts?

Subtle saturation is the classic treatment for extreme or "spiky" transients, originally by recording slightly hot to analog tape and more recently by just about any saturation technique out there, from guitar pedals to plugins (tastes vary, so try different approaches to find the one that works for you).
You can be much more subtle with saturation on peaks than just about any other approach IMO.
BTW, gating is the opposite of what you're looking for, as it will affect the LOWEST levels, not the HIGHEST.

This attachment shows the frequency analysis from Audacity.
I have compression on the track going into Reason.
Thanks Loque
