Noise Gate - How To Automatically Mute/Unmute Audio in Premiere Pro

In this video I talk about the Noise Gate (or AutoGate) feature in Adobe Premiere Pro. You can use this dynamic effect to mute (or turn off) a microphone when the volume of that audio signal dips below a certain threshold and have it unmute (or turn back on) when the input level is louder than the threshold. Thus helping you remove unwanted noise when you are not talking.

    I'm going to store the concept away for now until one day I suddenly want it for something... although I'm wondering if I could use it for vlogging in shops with low-level copyrighted background music in. I've been known to chop out all gaps or use the pen tool to try to stiffle/hide that in the past.

You had good visual representation, perfect use of examples, easy to follow along with instructions, and you actually taught me what threshold, attack, release, and hold all meant. I don't usually subscribe to tutorial youtube channels but you really earned it. Thank You!

    Javier Noise gate shoub be used for live noisy instruments guitars where one wants to control the noise bleed. This post prod scenario you should be using noise reduction not noise gate. You should use plugins like ERA by Accusonus, or take to AUdition for noise reduction

    Guitars are a great example for a use for this. Audition is amazing for noise reduction! For my simple VO tracks in premiere for YT videos and such, I actually prefer use a combination of both noise reduction and noise gate on my signal chain to keep everything inside the software. But I’m sure there are different ways for all types of situations.
