Spectral Gate includes the following controls.
To add the Spectral Gate effect to a clip and show the effect’s controls, see Add Logic effects to clips in Final Cut Pro for Mac.
Threshold slider and field: Set a threshold level for dividing frequency ranges. When the threshold is exceeded, the frequency band defined by the Center Freq. and Bandwidth parameters is divided into upper and lower frequency ranges.
Speed slider and field: Set the modulation frequency for the defined frequency band.
CF (Center Frequency) Modulation slider and field: Set the intensity of center frequency modulation.
BW (Bandwidth) Modulation slider and field: Set the amount of bandwidth modulation.
Graphic display: Shows the frequency band defined by the Center Freq. and Bandwidth parameters.
Center Freq. (Frequency) knob and field: Set the center frequency of the band that you want to process.
Bandwidth knob and field: Set the width of the frequency band that you want to process.
Super Energy knob and field: Control the level of the frequency range above the threshold.
High Level slider and field: Mix the frequencies of the original signal—above the selected frequency band—with the processed signal.
Sub Energy knob and field: Control the level of the frequency range below the threshold.
Low Level slider and field: Mix the frequencies of the original signal—below the selected frequency band—with the processed signal.
Gain slider and field: Set the output level of Spectral Gate.
