| A lot of people tend to use compressor to side chain so the bass line ducks when the bass kick comes out. However I found it much more useful to fade out the volume of the bass line right as the bass kick comes in. You get a lot more control doing this than just a regular sidechain. Try it out let me know what you think |

| if you mess around with the settings and your applying it to audio (not midi) you can get the same effects your after.. |

| I do that for gain ducking. That trick has been around for a long time. It's all that FL Studio users can do. |

I've never tried to sidechain anything, I've never massivly felt the need to, but always wondered how.
Does fruity not support this?
I got a sidechain compressor but i had no idea how the to get it to work. |

Sidechain effect in FL:
Make an FX Channel called trigger and put a FL Peak Controller in it, then put a kick sound through that channel. Thats the trigger.
Then in any FX channel that you want sidechained add a fruity compressor and right click on the threshold knob and click 'link to controller'. Then under internal controller select Peak+LFO or Peak. Then under Mapping formula select inverted. Then click OK.
Then you can play around with the ratio and peak controller untill you get the right sound.
Simple ;) |

| side chaining a compressor vs. gain ducking always sounds better to me. not that i have any idea what the difference is, but a ocompressor always gives u that win pressure sound like you're in a dead room with bass up really high |

If people stop beating around the bush and just give out straight tips, it would be much faster to skill up .. however i see producing as kinda like magic tricks.. a lot of peeps dont want to give out their secrets. |
