Thanks, I don't often remember to consider tailoring compressor sidechains. Everyone probably has compressors that accept sidechain inputs. But I have some without sidechain inputs where this hack won't work.
I actually didn't know this, thanks. I usually don't need any advanced sidechaining, just the regular low freqs filtering with a compressor. And that can be done even for comps that don't support sidechain with the following trick: clean EQ before the comp, low shelf set to where you want it and some gain off. Then after the comp exactly the same EQ with the same settings except with reversed gain, boosting back the lows what you lost with the 1st instance. It's possible to make more advanced sidechain curves too mirroring them with reversed gain in the 2nd instance. Just no low/high cut filters as you can't mirror them.
Do you use sidechains? If so, what do you use it for?!?

Thanks taking the time make these videos, I am hooked like a hungry fish 🪝🐠🐟... Been watching these tutorials on the daily.

This is easily done in Reaper as well.
