MIDI Gater is a simple, handy, MIDI-controlled gate. When you play a MIDI note, audio turns on. When you release the note, audio turns off.
MIDI Gater is a little unusual, though, because it is "polyphonic." What that means is that a copy of the audio signal is created for every MIDI note, and the volume of each copy is sensitive to note velocity. The level of sensitivity is adjustable. The volume between notes is also adjustable, in case you don't want your audio signal turning off completely.
vnoisegate:
Parameters:
Threshold: (dB) Signal level below which the signal is gated.
Hold time: (ms) The full signal is allowed through unaffected for the hold time. The hold time takes place after the attack time (and thus after the triggering signal level). If the signal exceeds the threshold during the hold time, the hold time is restarted.
Attack time: (ms) Time taken to ramp the signal up from silence to full strength. This happens when the input signal exceeds the threshold.
Decay time: (ms) Time taken to ramp the full strength signal to silence, post-hold time. If the threshold is exceeded during the decay period, the attack-hold-decay cycle is restarted.
Chan mode: (Linked, Indep., Cross) Linked - the highest signal level from either the left or right channel is used to control the gate. Indep. - the left and right channels are gated independantly. Cross - left channel gates the right signal, and vice versa.

AffectedME is a free VSTfx based around a 32 step random trance gate which syncs to the host. By raising or lowering the bars on the GUI you can increase / decrease the probability of the individual steps allowing the sound through or muting it.
There are also various effects which can be used to shape the sound to create everything from subtle movement to wild electronic bleeps and screeches.
mgTriggerGate: - 16step sequenced gate
- automatically fits to host tempo
- adjustable floor level and attack-/release-time
- comes with standard trance & dance presets
- plugin in vst format
- all parameters automatable.
