Creative Gating, Part 2

In this second creative gating tutorial a high-hat track is used to apply a rhythmic pulsing effect on a synth pad. As in the previous tutorial, the gate’s key input makes it happen.

A special thanks to Max Kunz of Jungle Maps for playing the drums.

    Great tutorial. I use a similar technique in Ableton. It is good to see a different perspective though. Great synth pad!
