Make Noise QXG Quad Low Pass Gate

Shape Your Stereo Mix With Precision and Character – The Make Noise QXG Quad Low Pass Gate

The Quad Stereo Gate (QXG) is a four-channel stereo low pass gate and mixer designed for ultimate control and musicality. Building on the legacy of the DXG, the QXG employs a fully analog, vactrol-free circuit, fine-tuned over months to deliver the smooth, organic response Make Noise low pass gates are known for—without the inconsistencies of vactrol components.

• Four-channel low pass gate and mixer for flexible stereo signal routing
• Vactrol-free design for classic, natural low pass gate response
• Selectable Vactrol button toggles between Fast and Slow modes
• Slow mode emulates vactrol decay behavior; Fast mode delivers precision for complex modulation
• Voltage-controllable Stereo Spread parameter for wide, spatial mixing
• Stereo Sum Output and Stereo AUX IN for chaining multiple units into larger systems
• Individual channel outputs remove that channel from the summed mix when patched
• Pre-patched headers for easy integration with Make Noise PoliMATHS
• Part of the new Universal Synthesizer System
• Chain two QXG units to a PoliMATHS for up to eight channels of amplitude control

Classic Sound, Modern Flexibility

The QXG delivers the same smooth, organic sonic behavior as vintage vactrol-based low pass gates but with the precision and reliability of a modern analog circuit. Its dual response modes let you choose between traditional, slow-decaying tones or quick, dynamic gating that excels in complex patching scenarios.

Dynamic Stereo Mixing

With a stereo sum output and voltage-controllable Stereo Spread, the QXG transforms your modular setup into a spatial sound design playground. Use the AUX input to chain multiple modules or expand your mix by connecting additional units for deeper stereo field exploration.

Integrated System Compatibility

Designed to integrate seamlessly with Make Noise’s Universal Synthesizer System, the QXG connects effortlessly with MultiMod and PoliMATHS modules for expanded control. Dual QXGs can provide up to eight channels of amplitude shaping, perfect for complex modular rigs and performance setups.
