    For the lovely folks that say this is possible with Trackspacer and/or Fabfilter Pro-Q3: Yes, it kind of is, but you will need to add multiple instances of the plugins to have separate sidechain INPUTS like I do here on the video. Don't confuse sidechain *sources* with sidechain *inputs* they are a very, very different thing :)

    • @gulagwarlord
      @gulagwarlord 2 роки тому +2

      That sounds about right... you can also use Soothe 2 for this, and Neutron too. I really wish Ableton would copy some of this functionality into eq8 though.

    • @captain_crunk
      @captain_crunk Рік тому +3

      Bitwig doesn't even support multiple sidechain sources (without hacking together a cluttered mess of multiple audio receivers), let alone multiple inputs. Similarly, it doesn't support multi-out vst instruments either. I don't understand why that is because their modulator routing is arguably best in class, and is the reason I have it. If only Cubase had modulator routing like Bitwig. It'd be the perfect DAW. Well, almost perfect due to the inspiration-killing audio drop outs when adding plugins. After working in Bitwig extensively I find the audio drop outs in Cubase to be unacceptable at this point. That said, imo Cubase is perhaps the most well rounded and feature rich DAW available (a true workhorse), and Bitwig is, for me anyway, the most inspiring and creative DAW around. C'mon Steinberg - let me modulate anything by everything already!

  • @FredDeMassiveAlambic
    @FredDeMassiveAlambic 2 роки тому +29

    For everyone searching for an alternative way to do the same thing : fabfilter pro-mb might be the best option.
    In most DAWs you can't get multiple sidechain input to the same plug-in, so you're going to use one instance of pro-mb per sidechain inputs.
    I like to use these techniques on my instruments' bus (where there's most instruments, but NOT the bass).
    One first instance of pro-mb will be triggered by the vocals to attenuate competing frequencies.
    A second one is triggered by the bass to make space for it in the low mids.
    Exactly as in this video !
    As this process can become addictive, these are several things you need to be aware of :
    - attack/release times have to fit the music. Learn how to listen to these parameters, you can f*ck the whole groove of the song just trying to get clarity.
    - pro-mb should work with oversampling and accurate phase modes in order to avoid aliasing or phase shifts/ringing stuff. This is more advanced but keepi in mind you're doing frequency-specific compression on a whole bus of instruments.
    For recent mixes I went even deeper (modern 808-rap) :
    - pro-mb on the 808's lows (

    • @DomSigalas
      @DomSigalas  2 роки тому +16

      Thanks for the comment! Trackspacer is amazing for this sort of thing but you have to add multiple instances of it. I would favour Pro-Q3 instead of MB if you don’t have Cubase. You can pinpoint the frequencies that you want much better - MB is a multi and compressor which will have a broader impact on your material :)

    In REAPER:
    Add ReaEQ to the track you want to EQ dynamically
    Drag the route button from the track that you want to prioritize to ReaEQ (literally drag and drop on the GUI)
    This will create a 3/4 send
    Select the band you want to move dynamically, choose the bandwidth, frequency, etc.
    Click on the Gain slider of your chosen band
    Then go to the "Param" button on the top right of the plugin window
    Click "Parameter modulation/MIDI Link"
    Double click the slider in the top to center it
    Click on the "Audio control signal (sidechain)" checkbox
    Track audio channel 3+4
    At the bottom "Direction" to Negative
    Move the min volume and max volume sliders up and down to where you want your signal to be affected, like a compressor threshold
    Attack, Release and Strength for finer adjustment

    most of the high quality cubase videos out there have your name on it dude. You've always got great workarounds and thought processes on this stuff I really appreciate it. this one was particularly good and I think it's going to change a lot of my outcome. I come from tape back in the '60s, last century. so all through to the end of that century we had to do all this stuff manually. although the saturation and lack of tracks made it palatable. The stuff you talk about now wasn't even a dream back then. I really can't keep up with it all so I count on guys like you for a compass when I'm working on very projects where I just need that one little trick to get through to the end of this one if you know what I mean. thanks for another great video.

  • @briancase6180
    @briancase6180 2 роки тому +2

    Yes, in bitwig studio, there are ways to accomplish this using the audio sidechain modulator. You can have as many as your would like. One way you can do this: use them mid-side split device, put an EQ+ device in the mid chain, add as many audio sidechain modulators as you need, set the frequency ranges for the sidechain modulators, then use the modulators to each dynamically duck a frequency range on the EQ+ device. It sounds complicated, but it's not bad, and you can customize it to your heart's content. You can probably do it in the grid (the built-in modular synth and FX construction set) also. Thanks for the video! You could also maybe use a few TDR Nova devices (a free plugin).

I side chained each kick, Tom, and snare, to the frequency eq I slapped on the end other the bass bus and ducked their respective frequencies, anywhere between 60 - 220, a couple db. The result was a very thick and tumultuous blend where I could hear all the tom work beautifully... super sexy 🌹

    This technique can be done in Studio one but not with one plugin for multiple elements as Dom do here. I think you can do that technique with others EQs on the market as the Pro Q3 by fabfilter or Kirchhoff-EQ. But this is a great example on how to make space into a mix. Nice video by the way!

      Indeed! Or you can use Trackspacer which also works great. But yes, you will need multiple instances of it :)

    This was extremely useful to learn. I switched to Cubase about a year ago and still learning. Your tutorials have been a great source. I was using external plugins to achieve this result but I am so surprised and shocked to learn Cubase has it built-in. Shows I gotta explore the DAW more. Thanks again Dom!

    Now that, is pretty F'n slick!!. Guess I need to start using Freq2 😉
    This can take the place of various automation moves on different tracks. Powerful stuff, thank you! ☺🙏

    Wow Dom! I’ve been waiting for this high level of explanation for side chain in freq2 told so simply that even I can understand it and you nailed superbly as always! Thanks so much! ❤

    You can also do this with stock plugins from FL Studio and Ableton!

    When playing with my new Cubase 12pro, I discovered this function of Frequency 2 and I said, this is really amazing. Every day I am happier that I left Avid in the past. Good luck Avid! Your videos are always great and you transmit enthusiasm! thank you!

    I love the use of stock plugins for critical moves such as this. Not only is it a classic use of ducking to make mixes clearer but also showing the power of the stock plugins and vindication of the investment we all made in buying Cubase instead of another DAW or in a third party plugin. Bravo!

    I wish I had this video about two months ago for the track I was working on at the time. It could still help me now to go back and remaster some tracks.
