Hi, wich one seems to be the best option to achieve the gated pad effect?
I've tried to assign an LFO to the amp, I've used a gate on the Pad track using sidechain to a 'trigger' track and I've also sliced the Pad when it was already in audio.
I didn't get the perfect results with any of these options, should I try harder, or is that another easier way?
Please, tell me your opinions!!!

If you use cubase you could try to control "main volume" in the key-edit window. That's how i do it, and i guess most people do. Or you could try to get a gate with key input.

ehh, you mean like, automate the track volume ?
with the rithm that I want ?
and, ...
...how can I get gate with key input?
I use logic, in case that matters.
Thanks in advance !

in logic here is how you can do it:
1: insert a noisegate on the track you want to gate.
2:insert an exs24 on an instrument track and instead of the track coming out on output 1/2 select an unused bus instead.
3:now set the sidechain input on the gate to the selected bus and make sure that the bus´s output is set to none.
4:it doesn´t really matter what sample you have loaded in the exs the default sine should do ok!
5:make a part with some notes in it and play it on the sampler, this is just to have something to fine tune the gate´s response with.
6:fiddle around with the gates threshhold/release and the reduction thingie untill you get the desired effect. for the record the chopping is not as sharp as for example in acid but it does have it´s uses,and is a good exercise in mixer routing that can also be used in the "real world".
the sound remind a lot of the rythmic choppy pads and voices on the shpongle albums...very soft

Monno - he said he used sidechains on gate... 
I'll just add that this is the best option and u can get the best results with it - just play around with the 'numbers'!
