You'll go far.

hey rav sidechaining is just a way of lowering the volume of one sound when another sound the 'trigger' plays. If your new your probably trying to make the pumping bass sound if thats the case try sidechaining two low octave detuned saw sounds to your kick drum then you will get the ripping pumping sound that is found in several styles of music. When you realise thats not the only use you can start to use it to give something extra room in your mix like tonight for example i had a pad and some plucks playing at the same time and they clashed so i set up a side chain to pull the volume of the pad down whenever a pluck sounded (even though it was rubbish because you could hear the compressor acting to much) but thats an example of a further use to sidechaining.

Processing a highly structured and complex pattern of sensory input as a unified percept of "music" is probably one of the most elaborate features of the human brain.....understanding how music is perceived and how it may elicit intense sensations is far from being understood.

Pads , Basslines etc.

Thanks a lot, Sonic. I appreciate the advice. I was just wondering how to get the enveloping sidechain sound, which I think I've found. But still, thanks for the feedback.
By the way, I listened to some of your songs and I must say that they are very good and professional sounding. Mine are nowhere near your level.
