You sell plugins that go against your recording philosophy. Money grab?
Man… I’m a mixing pro of 10+ years, a couple of platinum selling artists under my belt & I have to say this plug-in is a game changer. I have a hunch as to what’s going on under the hood and it’s very clever, especially to condense it down to essentially 3 knobs! Kudos bro. Instant purchase from me.
I started off as an electronic producer and I've always wished there was something like this so I could process my live drum tracks in that fully unrestricted way samples allow. I don't think I've ever been so hyped over a plugin in my life. Actual, true game changer
End of an era! Drum mixing is going to be at a whole other level now! Congrats guys!
Absolutely massive Jordan! Kudos to you and the development team. I am using Low-Control and Escalator now, worth++ every $ spent :)
Amazing! This will knock Oxford Drum Gate off it's throne. Signed Up for the wait list. Will be an instant purchase based off this video alone. Well done Jordan and the BSA team. I can't wait to try it out. Cheers from OZ :)
If this is fairly priced , this plug -in alone should make you a load of $$$. I know I'm going to get it. I'm an audio engineer who plays drums , and this has gotta be hands down the best gate I've ever heard.

Been excited about this from the teasers, and this is exactly what I need!
It is awesome, thank you Jordan and the Devs behind the scenes.
Awesome plugin, definitely a step up from other gates I have used in the past. Design looks really good too!
HOLY COW!! Now this is a plugin i need so bad imagine all the time this is gonna save me i didn't think it was gonna get any better then you have ghost notes mind blown away!! Mr Jordan and crew you guys just changed bad drum recordings!!
My favorite producer now making plugins. This is awesome! Can't wait to get this!!!
Silencer rocks as a drum gate obviously, but it's actually a great all around gate as well. Ive used it on guitars, particularly on single coils that get some interference, and this cleans that up very nicely. Also have used it in a live setting on vocals via Mainstage to cut down on cymbals in the vocal mics. There's some magic under the hood here.
I made it 30 seconds in before I paused, went downstairs to my PC, and bought it. Well done.
I bought this today. Used it. LOVE it. You have a gold mine here my friend. And your price is right. Hands down BEST gate EVER for drums.
I’ve been really excited for this since the announcement! Every other drum gate I’ve tried is either too complicated or just not good enough. I’m not even going to demo it, just going to add to cart immediately.
This is absolutely insane. Complete level up in drum treatment.
The ghost button is a game changer! No more copying ghost notes to a separate track 😅

Well... from what I see, the ghost button is like bypassing the plugin. So, the process (and the time consumption) is similar to having the usual gate plugin and automating the bypass when the ghost notes occur. It's useful, but it's not a game changer, yet. It would be a game changer if the ghost button could recognize the ghost notes by itself, without the need for manual automations. That would truly revolutionize things. Perhaps it will be possible in future versions. By the way, it's a very cool plugin.

@@tutubeos Automating the bypass button of a plugin causes clicks and pops sometimes. I usually automate the threshold. It's way more convenient to have a button inside of the plugin.

@@mrcoatsworth429 yep, it’s convenient, not a game changer
I'm new to the whole mixing/production world I've started this as a hobby having been a drummer for 35yrs and now finally have the ability to record at home. I appreciate my opinion may not carry much weight but I just got the trial for this and WOW! So simple to use, it's made such a huge difference to how my kit sounds on recording, the definition increase on the individual drums is so much clearer and it's so quick and easy to use.
How did you time this so damn well? Literally just about to mix my band's EP and while our drummer is a beast and the tracks sound great, I can't resist stepping up to perfection!
Had to go back and revisit some mixes I struggled with a few years back because of bad cymbal bleed. Worked like a champ! Thx!
YES! Congrats, this gate is sick!
This looks AMAZING... Can't wait for the drop!
Absolute game changer!!!! Can not wait Jordan!!
Dude this is absolutely amazing. Picking this up immediately
Welcome to the style...see 2023 ain't so bad. Especially with "Ghost" in town! Purchasing now. Thanks Jordan!
I bought it and can't believe how good it is! Truly a game changer! Thank you!
Definitely excited for this one
Thanks for the awesome review and the recommendation!
Okay, just got my mind blown after you showed the ghost button. That would have come SO handy for my latest mixing job! So cool!
This plugin seems great dude! Congrats!
This sounds insane! Great job!
Awesome! Buying this NOW.
Awesome! Excited to check it out!
😮 Honestly this is a BIG WOW😮 it cleaned up the Drums without any artificial impacts on it and still retain the real signal, this is truly what it. Well done and thanks it, I'll give it a try. ❤👍
Great timing! Been on a lookout for a new Debleeder🤘
just bought the full version today as my trial ended. realised i couldnt live without it!
This is insane! I'm buying it as soon as it drops! 🔥
Didn't even realize this was your company when I bought the plugin. I've tried many alternative bleed removal practices after DeBleeder stopped working for newer macs and this is the first one that actually got the job done. superb!
Looking forward to seeing how it compares with the Sonnox Drum Gate I already own. Looks easy to use and sounds great though!
Just tried it out, will def be buying this! works great!
Well wee needed this sooner! But better late than never I guess. Looking forward to trying it out. This is very useful indeed!
Works really well! Never liked any gate until now. Amazing!
Holy crap. This comes JUST in time as I was battling snare bleed while mixing some music for my band. Wondering what the price will be. Subscribed to the waitlist!
The ghost note button is a great idea. I’ve been happy with Drum leveller, but this looks like it is worth getting.
Watched the video. Downloaded the demo. Tried it for about 10 minutes. Bought it. No-brainer, it works.
Bought it yesterday and love it!
\,,/ - THIS RULES - please give my KUDOS + SALUTE for the posse behind this code devs \,,/ - I hope this will be not super pricey for us mortals - CONVINCING ASF \,,/
It works flawless as a guitar noise gate to! great work on that
Yeah man - that's sick. Buying right now!
Holy crap! I spent an hour or two yesterday editing out kick sounds in my snare & snare hits in my kick! Lol
Wow that’s incredible!! I haven’t heard anything like this before.
BSA are killing it. Low control and escalator are go to’s for me. Looking forward to this gate.
Seems like something better from the combination of sonnox gate and drumatom. I would be more than happy to try it! Good job and very simple interface!
This looks pretty rad
This is exactly what I've been needing. Awesome work. (Edit) Just got this plugin for 29 bucks! It's absolutely awesome! Works flawlessly I love it. Thank you BlackSalt and Jared:]
Would you consider doing a comparison between this and Sonible Smart Gate?
Just bought the Silencer and Escalator! I'm excited to put them to work
Sounds great! Great job, ive been using this gate thats on a guitar amp/cab emulation for everything from vocals to drums because it just works lmaoo bypass the cab and amp and just use the gate, this sounds great!
looking forward to trying this and I'll review it over on my channel
Those drums are smacking!!!
Wow!! Thisis amazing!
BSA have done it again. Another incredible plugin. I don't tend to mix live drums, but if I did, I would purchase without any hesitation 👍
Gotta check this out
The snare sounds identical to the one on face down by red jumpsuit apparatus. Always loved the drum mixing on that one
This is gonna be a gamechanger! I will get this as soon as i can ;)
Powerful plugin!
I have been using the wilkinson plugin! Looking forward to silencer 👌🏻
I thought "Game Changer" was clickbait. It may be an understatement. I used the trial on a mix that I was already really proud of and we spent a lot of time getting really good drum sounds at the source but because of cymbal bleed and it's just my standard workflow we loaded up the big phat sounding kick and snare samples. Well now I'm running it back with NO samples at all (I am sidechaining a sample into it as a trigger but it's turned down to zero) and I swear it sounds BETTER than the mix we sent for mastering! Immediately purchased it. I haven't bought a new plugin in years but this is literally a brand new type of tool. I wouldn't be surprised if we started hearing a lot more live drum mixes in general because of this. You may have saved rock n' roll 🤔

So great. This is going to go other vurrrrry well I feel.
The built in gate in Slate Trigger is really good too.
Dude im sold!!
Absolutely genius.
I would love to see u make a plugin for acoustic guitar processing. Eq, saturation, compression setting that are usually used. Maybe a three knob plugin. Just a thought.
Duuuuude this is the BEST gate everrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im recording my bands practices in a 11x11 room and cymbals just bounce all over and this is just amazing anybody reading this go get it now
My former go to:s were Drum Leveler, Smart:Gate and Multi Band Gate. Tried out Silencer last night and it's a winner since it sounds the most natural to me, is the fastest one to work with and the one that allows me to crank the treble knob on the snare drum mic the most before the hihat bleed pisses me off. A definite buy for me.
Wow! Just wow!!!
Right off the bat this sounds great. I was curious if you think adding a hi-hat setting to get further hat isolation could work?
Welp, glad I didn’t pull the trigger on another drum gate I had my eye on, this looks awesome and better
THIS IS INSANEEEEE!
looks great. i am not mixing anymore, but ill bookmark this for if i ever start again 😅
LOVE U MAN HELL YEA
This looks killer
A lot of plugins that are said to "change the way" you do anything, I find that they might be cool but aren't game changing. Silencer is the exception for sure. So crazy how effective and simple it is to use and automate. Definitely a go to to kill bleed on all my drums.
Insane. Its so good so its hard to believe 😮🎉😅
If this competes with Sonnox drum gate, I'll definitely demo it

Amazing!

Snare bottom, it gated out all the cool ghost notes that I always try to keep. Without those ghost notes and vibe, it just sounds like programmed drums.
I just buy the plugin, it's crazy !
