import gate from '@audio/dynamics-gate'

Noise gate with hysteresis, hold-then-close logic and look-ahead. Opens above threshold, closes only below closeThreshold (hysteresis prevents chatter around a single threshold); below it, signal is attenuated by range dB. A hold timer keeps the gate open after a drop-out; attack/release smooth the gain transitions. lookahead runs detection ahead of emission so the gate is already opening when a transient reaches the output — batch calls stay sample-aligned (no silence prefix, no dropped tail); block hosts get the delay declared as atom latency.

import gate from '@audio/dynamics-gate'

gate(data, { threshold: -40 })
gate(data, { threshold: -35, range: -80, hold: 20, attack: 1, release: 150, lookahead: 5 })

Use when: drum mics, voice dialogue with ambient noise, removing hiss between phrases.
Not for: subtle low-level reduction — use expander.
