Side Chaining Problem

Hi everyone :slight_smile:

I’ve got a drum track and a pad track, and I’ve put a Gate on the pad track. I want the Gate to open is sync with the HIHAT hits.
there is a part in the drum track when there is only HIHAT and it works like a charm in that part.

But it’s like the “Center” and “Q-Factor” controllers in the side chain section are not working(doesn’t matter if the side chain button is on or off).

What am I missing ?

thanks
