Does anyone have any techniques to do this? Sidechain on a multiband compressor? Can you do that with abletons built in multi-band comp?

Not sure if Ableton's MB compressor can do that, but I assume that it could be done. Vengeance MultiBand Sidechain is designed to do exactly what you're asking - it can sidechain two frequency bands independently.

What's the question again?

You want to sidechain your sub so it ducks the kick?

Easy. Set the output of your sub track to aux1.

on aux1 insert a compressor and set the sidechain input as your kick.

Was that what you were asking?

yeah i dont understand the question either

You'll get more control by automating eq or levels.

would send the sub content to an aux and use lfotools or cableguys volume or filter

Actually, I quite like ducking with a gate.

Working on this track right now and a Predator track has this arped and pingpong panned sequenced thing going on. I wanted to do the same thing with another arped lead soundfrom in Massive, so I sent to aux bus then inserted Predator as an FX and duped the FX from the 1st track.

Both totally different sounds with different frequency content but it made them sit in the mix together.

Well, say I'm just using a single kick sample. If i have the sub of my kick already on a separate channel then sure its easy. But what if I just have one kick sample? Do i need to split its frequency band with a filter/crossover, so i can treat the sub seperately? Or is there a multiband compressor with sidechain? someone mentioned vengeance. but i'd think you'd be able to do this in ableton.

if you're on a mac there's Duck EQ

the VST is 64 bit but i think the AU is 32
