hey guys i hope you can help with this. im using reason, and have a problem with the sidechaining effect. i have a redrum connected to a compressor and routed back to the mixer as an aux effect. but the problem is you can hear a bit of a clicking sound were the bass kick is being played in the redrum. i try adjusting the threshold and the ratio but i can get rid off the sound with out lowering the amount of effect.
anyone know how i can work my way out of this problem, im stumped. thanks for the help. |

you mentioned changing the ratio and the threshold...but not the attack or the release?
i think the problem is in the attack or release
or maybe if the sound of the kick is the controller than the sound could be causeing the click......make sense?
still i think it's in the attack. |

| i try the attack and the release, and the bottons(i cant remeber what there called) ive moved everything to all possible sides, and still the click. i can get rid of the click but then the effect isnt noticeable enough. :confused: |

| Well if using a compressor isn't working, then the second best idea is to try just using volume automation. That's how they used to/still do it. |

| ASFSE is on the right track. usually the compressor is fighting the instrument or the kick in its release/attack. i would try changing the kick to something more punchy(shorter one shot length) or adjust the attack/release in the instrument (try the release first). |

| use a seperate kick track to trigger the sidechain. nudge the trigger kicks all a smidgen before the real kicks, or use an envelope to put a small attack on the trigger kics. |

| If the click sound plays when the kick drum is playin it could be as simples as the "click" button next to the tempo being switched on :) |

I don't think that's the case here.
I ran into the same problem when I used Reason. I solved it by using a different kick for the sidechain. |
