FLAMERS- please dont waste yours and my time:)
USEFUL HELP FROM NICE PATIENT PEOPLE - apprieciated:)
i have been using cubase sl/sx 2.0 for about 2.5 years and now feel my tracks will benefit from sidechaining the bass to the kick drum.
not cos 'benny benessi' uses it and i wanna copy him. i just want to free up some headroom for my kick when i want a nice full long note bassline running parallel with a kick.
im using the standard vst dynamics compressor. that comes with cubase.
how do i route the signal from my kick sample track so it affects the compressor on the bass track?
i admit i have read articles posted here but it did not make sense to me.
thanks in advance!

Since im not familier with cube i just googled it.

Im guessing cubase would have some kind of efx channels or sends and recievs. You just rout the kick and bass to that.
Ok.. so what i said wasnt so helpfull but that link looks like it might be. |

Only way I have found as of yet, is using the dB direct-x plug-ins. I personally think they are too harsh, but they do work. I am sad that unlike ProTools Nuendo/Cubase is devoid of any kind of internal bussing system, meaning.
You can't send a kick to a "bus" track, and then have your compressor listen to that bus track for key input. Im pretty sure standard Cubase/Nuendo plug-ins are not going to do it for you.
However.
Setup goes like this
AudioTrack(Bass)->Insert dB Compressor: RECV-A
AudioTrack(Kick)->Insert dB Compressor: SEND-A

I saw another thread on this earlier, forgot where. But whatever. I think it's a question every Cubase/Nuendo user has once they learn of side-chaining compression and how Benny-Bennassi-tastic it is. Heh. I kid.
Know of any other good side-chaining plug ins that work for Nuendo/Cubase, post them here ;)
edit:
SideKick looks like it will also do it for you
It's free too:

I think other people have mentioned it/use it before. But I found it by my lonesome. |

I suggest checking THIS COMPRESSOR out, it's free and it's the only way to sidechain in stereo in Cubase atm. (at least that I know of)
It works really well for it's purpose so go check it out :) |
