It will be deadly awesome if someone could me explain in simple words:
How to make a side-chaining or ducking effect when the Leads presets are playing.
I’m not talking about the usual side-chaining through the 4/4 kick drum pattern.
I’m talking when the main Lead (EDM genre) is playing > the big reverbs goes behind. I’ve found 2 examples on youtube but for Fl and Logic only… and I couldn’t find the way to replicate it on Cubase 7.
When I process the ducking effect on my Lead, the result is: the compressor play on each note of my Lead > means my lead disappear on each note… as results I only hear the reverb.
I couldn’t find the way to hear my sound upfront… right on the face -)
Here’s a good example of what I’m talking about:
Many many and many thx guys for your help and advice.
You have your lead sound.
Use an aux send to send to the reverb.
Now your lead sound has reverb.
Open the channel edit window for the reverb effect and engage the standard compressor
in the channel strip. Engage the little “SC” button on the compressor.
Now back to your lead channel, use another aux send and send this one to the side-chain
of the reverb channel’s compressor.
Sometimes you have to scroll down, the side-chain inputs are at the bottom.
