;; The gain envelope for the noisegate function may be a mono sound (stereo-link = 1, or *track* is mono)
;; or an array of sounds (stereo-link = 0 and *track* is stereo).
;; 'Level Reduction' is similar to "Range" or "Floor", but is a (negative) amount of gain
;; rather than a fixed level.
;;
;; To create the gain envelope:
;; 1. If stereo track and stereo-link = 1, get the max of left and right.
;; 2. Add 'hold' when level > threshold.
;; This adds a high level signal for 'hold' seconds when the level
;; falls below the threshold.
;; 3. Nyquist GATE function to generate exponential rise and decay.
;; Unlike analog noise gates, lookahead is used so that the gate
;; begins to open before the signal rises above the threshold.
;; When the threshold is reached, the gate is fully open.
;; This prevents the gate from clipping the beginning of words / sounds.
;; 4. Scale level of envelope and offset so that we have unity gain above
;; threshold, and 'level-reduction' below the threshold.
;; If silence-flag is set (= 1), gain below the threshold is zero.
