Any sidechained compression setup will do the job just as well as (and usually better than) the Peak Controller.

Formulas are a little more tricky, but if you're using MIDI to control the filter then you can use a MIDI transform on it to accomplish the same thing.

fl studio baby..

gotta say that's pretty clever.

In reason you can use the Scream to output a CV based on level and probably accomplish the same thing with the reverb.

Makes me wish Live had some additional parameter/value routing tools other than just MIDI.

Yeah but for stuff beyond sidechaining.. like how the more signal the peak controller gets the more it will turn down any parameter you want.. like reverb mix.. anything like that in cubase?

Reverb damping is the more legitimate use of side-chained compression and it's very easy to do (and in fact I've talked about that over a dozen times on this forum, and it's referenced in a couple of the tutorial links, though I don't recall offhand which ones).

This is why I'm annoyed at the step-by-step sidechain tutorials and the people asking for them - people usually don't understand what they're doing and have no idea how to adapt the technique to the numerous other situations it's useful for in production. Worst is that most of these people end up thinking that "sidechaining" IS that stupid bass-ducking effect and has no other uses.

i understand what ur saying. i sidechain in cubase using a quatro group channel and compressor on that..how do i set a control to automate depending on the signal???would love to experiment further with thisbut just dont know where to start with linking a control to the signals
