      Its not so easy in Reaper its like goin down a rabbit hole, in the end I think I understand the software better. Heck I didnt pay much mind to all those bars in on the track mixer, but i do now. The concept of dynamic eqs are really only in the digital domain of software design and still gaining attention. They seem most appropriate to mastering these days

      @@genuinefreewilly5706 Hey, William, gret to read that.
      About Dynamic EQ, I'm learning a lot and you'll, too.
      Keep searching.
      So far, more and more I see that dynamic EQing and multi-band compression are much more "shaping" parts than "glueing" busses or fixing mater faders.
      Because if anything is more pronounced in a certain moment and it pushes the compression down, that ban or frequency range will drop, but not only on that high note of that specific voice or instrument, so it will "eq" everything (bass, drums, guitars, keys, etc.) and wee don't want that, right...
      Just want to share that and I hope it helps you a little more...

      Same exact story here. And after 20 years of having the tools I am finally learning how to REALLY use them. I swear knowledge like this took a while to be this available. For years it was only if I paid a fortune to go to an engineering school, and even online only the first lesson would be free and then pay big for the whole ‘course’. . I have no more excuses!

    The sidechain source track should be send to reacomp track in PRE FADER mode. In post fader mode every movement of the source volume fader will effect the compression theresold and mess up everything.

    • @ChristopherWoods

      Good point. Many people with more complex projects may prefer a consistent sidechain duck, independent of main vox level. But it is sometimes desirable - if you don't have a complex project auxing vocals.
      I do a direct aux send trigger to a second channel on on my home setup. Now I'm also using it for Zoom/Discord/Skype, initially it was just for Twitch if/when there's music or game audio I want to duck when I speak. The video was very clear, good work once again Jon.

      Also really good for beefing up boxy kick drums.
      Set up a tone generator with a low frequency (tune frequency to key of song) and have it gated so that when your kick hits it opens up.
      Adjust attack and decay of gate to liking.

    Thanks a lot for this tutorial, at first I could not get it to work, but then I realised that you have to create the compressor BEFORE creating the send of the kick on channel 3 and 4, other intersting tip is in the "send settings" set midi channels to None when using midi tracks, thanks again!

    Side Chain gating is how you get that nine inch nails sounding snare drum or a synthwave snare... you give it huge reverb and then you side chain gate it so it cuts it to a quick snare sound but sounds big. I just learned how to do this, The reason you side chain gate is to not destroy the reverb as much, so i was told by this synthwave producer anyway... and I did not know you can just drag sends into a plugin. Reaper is really good.

    This is all great as long as you use the Cockos (ReaComp) compressor because it has that selection for the side chain routing. But when you want to use another plugin, this is a nightmare to set up. I wish you would do a video on how to set up another plugin that is not Cockos for sidechaining. That would really be instructive then. It seems Reaper, as loved as it is, does not make sidechaining easy.

    Don't suppose anyone is around to help me out? When I side chain my kick drum to Bass I'm just hearing the notes from my bass line on my kick drum. Like I'm hearing the notes I hit when I recorded my kick drum but they're playing as my bass vst. So it's just giving me a very deep/rhythmic extra bass line. I do have the 3/4 set up exactly as he said and I've tried multiple other channels with the same effect. I'm fresh out of the gate with reaper so I feel like there's something simple I'm missing. Anyone?

    I use Reaper like 5 years now and that is sooooooo ridiculous that every time I need to use sidechain I have to watch that video 3-5 times because I can't understand and remember what I need to do to make that stupid sidechain works.
    Man, that is the most f***ked up thing in that DAW.
    Why Reaper developer could not do normal sidechain like is other DAW's - sidechain ----> channel---> tadam works well ?
    Why need to send somewhere where is no visible signal, then do left hand by right ear with legs wide split and eyes on south !!!
    That is a nightmare !
    When you will change that, that will be THE MOST INNOVATION on your DAW, because that thing is crazy and makes nervous every engineer I speak with.

    that's a neat little 'click & drag' shortcut...a little more complicated than just right clicking on a 1 or 2 second wav file of a sound effect ...but i get the idea.

      @@TheREAPERBlog well, i guess there's no way for me to explain it...i'm a beginner and i'm not familiar with the technical words for stuff...but i did manage to accomplish what i was trying to do because of the way you explained it in your video..so thank you for that. ...i clicked the green FX button on the track that had a 2 second wav clip on it and click/drag ReaPitch to it and it worked, as opposed to just using a keyboard shortcut. I used to know what the keyboard shortcut was for what i was trying to do, but i forgot it. lol! So instead of adding ReaPitch to the entire track i just added ReaPitch to a small 2 second piece of wav file on that track.
