I think I'm searching for rocking horse poo here, but I was wondering if there are any plugin gates out there that may write volume/mute automation? Regarding J Steigers forthcoming VCA/HUI fader mute automation rig, it's going to be an unreal development for us hybrid dudes, it would be really something to be able to utilize a plugin gate that would write volume/mute automation for PITA tracks like drums
thanx for any info
(btw, i fully expect this thread to be one of the rare, drop like a boat anchor, 0 response threads lol)
btw..w, in case anyone is wondering why i'd ask? because when you're inserting a bunch of vintage/noisy outboard gear in the analog domain, it's great to be able to level change/mute last in series before dumping to the summing bus, to keep the noise floor down, otherwise 50 channels of very low level hiss becomes not so "low level".

just instantiate a gate plugin and automate the Bypass parameter...

.....Regarding J Steigers forthcoming VCA/HUI fader mute automation rig..... To be clear, our system is not HUI based. It uses the full resolution of the DAW so 2048 steps for 64 bit and 1024 steps for 32 bit. Far beyond HUI capabilities, from what the smart people tell me  |

Perhaps I'm not understanding what you're trying to do.. you're trying to add a gate AFTER all of your hardware inserts to mute them when they're not being used?  How is this not what you want to do? Just automate when the Gate is bypassed or not. |

Just automate when the Gate is bypassed or not. I have a console, i insert hardware OTB, then I sum OTB, then capture AD back in, so I was hoping for a gate that might write what it's doing to volume/mute automation, so when Jeff's VCA analog automation plugin comes out, i can use it on drums in the analog domain. I get why it's confusing, i've never seen a gate that would do that, i figured it was worth a shot asking, thanx |

Not really sure what you are trying to do Tony, but the waves bass or vocal rider will write the automation of what it does.(fader riding)
Check it out maybe you can find a way to make it work for what youre goin for.
