How to Noise Gate a Techno Top Loop With Fruity Limiter

If this is your final top loop and you want to make it tighter, open a Fruity Limiter on it and noise gate it.

Fruity Limiter as a noise gate

I open a Fruity Limiter on the final loop and noise gate it. Take down the gain 100% and open the threshold. Any sounds under the threshold get noise gated and 100% gain reduced.

Adjust it to your liking and you've cleaned up the space in your top loop, which really helps sometimes to clean up your tracks.
