Nothing really. It has been used for ages and I agree it's a great technique. I don't mind the use of it as a technique for glueing together kick/bassline or to duck delays on vocals triggered by lead vocals etc. I was merely referring to the growing number of tracks that are released that's build on almost nothing but a sidechaining-effect. Sidechaining as an effect. I loved it at first when Benassi and Eric Prydz did it. I still liked it when Royal Gigolo, Sunblock etc. came. However, enough is enough, right?
I mean.... There are so many releases right now on your average Bravo Dance Hits CD compilation (or whatever), where there's really no special melody, no incredible vocal talent, no message etc. in the music - but it seems that these tracks made their way to the charts because they are using the pumping effect of sidechaining anything with the kick 
My point was: YES, we have heard that effect (even Madonna did it) .... now let's move on to something else!
And here we have Steinberg delivering the feature about 2 years too late. Way to go... Still very much considering a switch to Logic.
