Introducing Renegate Free by Auburn Sounds – a gate plugin that redefines the way you control the dynamics of your audio recordings. Forget about complicated settings and unnatural sounds – Renegate Free makes the gating process intuitive and musical.
What is an Audio Gate?
An audio gate is a dynamic processor that automatically reduces the volume of a signal when it falls below a certain threshold. It’s an indispensable tool for cleaning recordings from unwanted background noise, removing bleed between tracks (e.g., hi-hat noise in a snare drum microphone), and creating effects. However, traditional gates often suffer from harsh sounds or the cutting off of important sound attacks.
Renegate Free from Auburn Sounds is designed to overcome these problems. It offers full control over the signal, always ensuring a smooth and natural sound while remaining extremely quick to set up.
Simplicity and Innovation of Renegate Free
Don’t be misled by the minimalist interface of Renegate Free. Behind the external simplicity lies complex and intelligent processing that automates many routine tasks and provides a high-quality result.
Advanced Technologies Inside
Renegate Free relies on several unique features that make it especially effective and musical:
-
Program-Dependent Hysteresis
Automatically adjusts the difference between the opening and closing thresholds of the gate. This allows you to accurately “capture” the desired sounds, preventing premature closing or “fluttering” of the gate, ensuring stable and reliable operation regardless of the type of audio material.
-
Built-in Look-Ahead
The plugin “listens” to the signal a little in advance, giving it the ability to fully open the gate even before the main transient (attack) reaches the processing point. This ensures that no sound attack is cut off, preserving the punch and dynamics of your instruments.
-
Program-Dependent Auto-Release
Intelligently sets the time for the gate to close. Unlike a fixed release, which can sound unnatural, the auto-release adapts to the decay of the sound, providing a smooth and organic return to the “closed” state.
-
Modern Detection with a Psychoacoustic Model
Uses a high-precision 43-band psychoacoustic aural model for signal detection. This means that the plugin analyzes the sound as the human ear perceives it, breaking it down into multiple frequency bands. Such detailed analysis allows for extremely accurate differentiation of useful signal from noise or bleed, ensuring reliable gate triggering even in complex mixes.
Who is Renegate Free For?
Renegate Free is ideal for musicians, sound engineers, and podcasters. If you record vocals, instruments, drums, or work with audio where unwanted background noise or bleed is present, this plugin will become your indispensable assistant. It allows you to quickly and effectively clean your tracks, improve the clarity of the mix, and focus the listener’s attention on the main elements.
Thanks to the support of VST and AU formats, as well as compatibility with Windows (64-bit), macOS, and Linux operating systems, Renegate Free easily integrates into most modern digital audio workstations (DAWs).
Auburn Sounds offers Renegate as a free solution, making it accessible to everyone who wants to gain professional control over dynamics without unnecessary expenses.
Conclusion
Renegate Free is a powerful, intuitive, and extremely effective gate plugin. It simplifies the process of audio cleaning by using advanced intelligent algorithms to achieve a smooth, natural, and reliable result. Try it to see how easy it is to get rid of unwanted noise and bleed while preserving the dynamics and character of your sound.
