The amplitude necessary to start recording, which this parameter sets, will be significantly higher than the noisegate threshold. Using Volume swells with the recording threshold will most definitely result in the beginning getting clipped. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html http://www.annihilist.com/ | Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com
