Suggestions for a gate

#1 Post by jswingchun »

I am considering a gate for kick drum and possibly snare. Any suggestions for a reasonably priced (read that as "cheap" if you want too) gate that would quiet the kick drum channel 'tween hits?

No, a rack mount unit for running using a channel insert from the mixer.
