i suggest this... try to make it sound fat without sidechaining, then apply the sidechain to give the bottom end just that much more pumpin and punchin sound.

I use a free vst which seems to work ok. It's called sidekick.

You need to load the vst as an insert into both the source and destination channels. The source (e.g. kick) outputs to a virtual channel and you select the virtual channel from the sidekick on the destination.

Give it a go. THere are probably better ones but this will help with the concept.

Here is one plug I like to use for sidechaining, it works a little differently in that you must use midi notes to trigger it but, it sounds great if you learn to use it right. I use it inside Live and it works for me, you just need to learn how to route your midi to its input.
