Dead Duck Software – DD Gate x64 x86 VST WiN

DD Gate is a compact VST plugin built for noise gating with an added sidechain control. It lets you silence unwanted background noise, hum, or bleed by cutting the signal when it falls below a set threshold, and the sidechain input opens up ducking and rhythmic gating possibilities. Because it supports both 64-bit and 32-bit Windows hosts, it works comfortably in FL Studio, Ableton Live, and other VST-compatible DAWs on Windows. The tiny 0.7 MB footprint means it loads quickly and won’t clutter your plugin folder. This is a straightforward utility for hobby producers who need a clean, functional gate without a steep learning curve. Use it on noisy vocal takes, drum rooms, or synth layers to tighten up the mix. It is not a channel strip or a creative multi-effect, just a focused tool for controlling level-dependent dynamics. If you already understand threshold and sidechain basics, you can put DD Gate to work right away in your sessions.
